• 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.

If radio A (The transmitter) and radio B (The receiver) are occupying slot 1 for a call, what will happen to radio B if radio C keys up at the same time?

Will radio B hear both radio A and radio C??

*Assume slot 2 is idle, radios A, B and C have different radio ID and all three radios are in the same talkgroup.

Thanks

Radio C should recognize there's activity on the frequency/talkgroup, and as clb mentioned, not allow TX. This isn't true however if the radios are programmed with TX/RX interrupt, which can be programmed via CPS. If this is programmed, Radio C would override radio A, and Radio B would only hear radio C's traffic.

The repeater would have to allow interrupt (an emergency option) otherwise, first come, first served. Only if radio 'C' was sending emergency can it hijack the repeater.

The way I read the question I understood it as conventional Radio->Radio, not repeater. In your case, yes, if there was a repeater involved this is how it'd work.

Thanks guys.

Sorry for another question. Will emergency preemption or TX interrupt feature work, if both repeater slots are being occupied?

(eg. radio A is transmitting in slot 1 and radio B is transmitting in slot 2, radio C user hits the emergency button, will radio C get bonked?)
