is it possible to use the db25 connector on the DSDX04 and adapt it to a db9 for programming? As of now i need to open up the case everytime i want to upgrade the mission plan through the large rear connector.

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.

I never tried programming at the accessory port, I have always used a DB44 with the 15 pin port.
It is a hassle opening the case, but if you think ahead and program a full personality, you don't often have to change anything.
My VHF, I have weather, including satellites, all of the ITU marine channels, Local VHF ham repeaters and some ham simplex channels. MURS, etc.
The UHF, I have all the GMRS, a few ham repeaters, some simplex channels, and some test channels.
Being a base setup you don't need to reprogram like maybe a portable or mobile.
I have an XG-100m in a CS-7000 desktop with much all the same bandplans. The portable will take up to 10 mission plans like the CH-100.
