• 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.

How do I change to a different scan list in the MT2000?

I Have a few scan lists set up. Even one for the Zone that I have all of the NOAA weather radio frequencies in. But even if i go to that Zone and press the button to start scanning. the scan icon doesn't show up until I go to a Zone that has channels in Scan list 1. I can't figure out how to go to scan list 2 and so on. the radio will only go into scan mode if i am on a channel that is in scan list 1. when i go to a channel in another scan list it won't scan.

Every personality has to have a scan list assigned. It's irrelevant if the channel(s) in question are actually being scanned, every personality must have one assigned.

For example.. Zone 1 is personalities 1-16, Zone 2 is 17-32. You would have 2 scan lists, 1 and 2. Personality 1-16 are all set to scan list 1, and 17-32 are all set to scan list 2. Then you go into the scan lists themselves and pick which channels you actually want to scan.
