• 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.

cdm 1550 repeater question

So I'm trying to set up a cdm 1550 repeater. I've got one of the accessory port cables. I've done some research and everyone seems to have good luck with them. Duplex repeater Interface cable Motorola radio CDM750 M1225 CM300 GM300 CDM1550 | eBay

When I connected mine, I had to program pin 8 for the COS, which seems to be working. When either radio receives a signal it will key the other radio. My problem is that I have no audio between radios. From what I've researched, the audio pins are not programmable. Is there something in the setup that I don't have correct? Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Connector 1 pin 2 ---> Connector 2 pin 11
Connector 1 pin 3 --->Connector 2 pin 8
Connector 1 pin 7 ---> Connector 2 pin 7
Connector 1 pin 8 ---> Connector 2 pin 3
Connector 1 pin 11 ---> Connector 2 pin 2

Set pin 8 in radio programming to "PL & CSQ?Talkgroup Detect" on both radios, low and debounce check.

Pin 2 is mic audio, pin 11 is rx audio

I have two Motorola CM200's and trying to setup a repeater between both.
I have: https://www.amazon.com/Generic-gsd-...78021378&sr=8-1&keywords=pm400+repeater+cable

Can anyone please help me to know what to set within the program to get these to work? I tried setting pin 8 to PL/CSQ Talkgroup Detect with low and debounce but I do not see a Pin 2 or Pin 11. only pin3,4,6,8,9,12,14. I have the Accessory Package set to Default. Do I need to change this? I appreciate any and all help as I am new to this. Thanks

Edit: I am now able to get it to work but no audio is being carried.
