• 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.

Since the EVX radios are new and there have been frequent updates made to them I thought I would start a new thread that includes the change log information on the updates. I will continue to post back here as I update my radios.

I couldn't copy and paste the chart at the end of the most recent update, so I have attached it to this message.

Here is the information on the latest version Ver 3.13_3.08, Released Oct. 15, 2013

In this firmware, the following problems have been resolved.
(1) When one EVX-530 radio receives a signal and receives another signal just after receiving the first signal, the radio does not TX and RX, the LCD display locks, and the LED lights. This symptom is not observed very frequently.
(2) The following function is added.
(a) When receiving DMR Group Call/Private Call/All Call, the tones that are programmed in the Contact
List. (pointed out by GmbH)
(b) When receiving Group Call, the received Group Tag and the TX station Tag are displayed by turns.
(c) When receiving Private Call and the radio is in the “Hang Up Time”, and receives All Call, the “Hung
Up Time” is cleared.

I sincerely hope you are being sarcastic since the software was just released today.

Perhaps if you are a "VSTech" as your member name suggestions you can provide the update notices??

New Firmware for the portables 6 JAN 2014:

EVX-530_Firmware_V03_15_03_09 (Package).zip

In this firmware, the following problems have been resolved.

(1) Correction
In the previous version, Manual DTMF was not allowed to be sent in the Analog mode and the DTMF side
Tone sounded in the Digital mode/channel. This problem is corrected and the Manual DTMF is allowed in
the analog mode and the DTMF monitor does not sound in the Digital mode.

(2) Correction
There was a code error in the Remote Monitor function. The code is corrected.
(Even if the function starts to work, Motorola radios cannot hear the signal, but only the EVX radio can
hear it.)
