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.

Will this news story from December 2020 shed any light on what became of Cimarron Technologies?

So tanks, but no tanks? Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Thanks kf8 - I couldn't find anything on them.
Convex Corporation also went out of business last year after 44 years. They made analog simulcast alignment/test equipment amongst other items used in the LMR business.
Midian is a popular one!! Very helpful customer service reps also!!
That's a bummer. Muni shop I was in had some Cimarron decoders kicking around, I put on to use on a base station for all our conventional channels. It was always fun when one of the Solid Waste Services guys would go ahead an rebroadcast the Good Times radio playing in their cab:
Next thing they would hear was one of us techs saying this:
"Truck # Such n so,, this radio channel is for City business use only. What you are doing is against FCC regulations and City Policy!!"
Supervisor truck for that route "Thank you, Radio Shop!! We'll take care of it from here!!"
Moral: Don't be stupid, esp. with employer property.
