To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.
Best chart I've seen yet on the FRS/GMRS freqs and rules

Looks almost like the one in our wiki.
wiki.radioreference.com
FRS/GMRS combined channel chart - The RadioReference Wiki
Indeed, ours is more complete but not PDF. I did a print to PDF locally and saved ours too.
Thanks! Some good info there.

Well those freqs sure are oddly spaced. It's almost like gubbmint work ...

They're spaced that way because the GMRS-only channels (old "class A" C.B.) existed long before FRS, and the FRS channels were sandwiched in and around the pre-existing 25khz GMRS-only channels. For example, the very low power FRS/GMRS channels are only 12.5 khz (11mhz deviation), sandwiched between the GMRS-only repeater inputs.
