• 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.

HAS ANYONE SUCCESFULLY PATCHED DMR TO ZELLO BY CONNECTING A HYTERA MD782/HM782 MOBILE WITH A HYTERA MNC360 NETWORK MOBILE VIA CABLE?, OR DO YOU NEED TO USE HYTERA HALO BRIDGE SOFTWARE THROUGH THEIR PROPRIETARY APP?
IM OPEN TO OTHER METHODS AS WELL, LIKE THE SOLIDTRONIC GATEWAY ETC

Anywhere & Everywhere & Nowhere :)
Over the past 10+ years, I have literally spent hundreds of hours and tried TONS of and all sorts of “solutions“ to connect one of my repeaters to Zello.
I’ve tried everything from directly connecting hardware (pc / software / audio boards / signalllink / eBay ”solutions” / etc)
to using a “donor“ mobile or portable (located fairly close to the repeater & at 1 mile distance) and wired to the all of that same gear.

Virtually everything I tried ended up being either nonfunctional or “glitchy”.
It was extremely frustrating and difficult to troubleshoot since the “glitches“ were usually intermittent.

Repeaters:
Analog: (Motorola Quantar / Motorola GR-1225)
P25: (Motorola Quantar)
DMR & Mixed-Mode DMR+Analog: (Hytera RD-982 / Hytera MD-782+MD-782 “homebrew” / Motorola XPR-8400)

Mobiles / Portables:
Motorola: G1225 / G300 (limited to 25KHz spacing) / XPR-4550 / Astro-Spectra / XPR-5550 / XTL-2500 /
XPR-7550e / XTL-2500 / XTS-2500 / JT-1000

Hytera: MD-782 / PD-682 / PD-782 + 782G / PD-982 / XP-1

THEN, I saw a YouTube video showing the Solidtronics (first saw model 3) being used as an interface to Zello and several other providers, like Azetti and others. There was virtually no info or details, other than a user demonstrating the system.
I opted to abandon any hope of interconnection with Zello At that point. The came the Fauci Hunger (& toilet paper) Games. 🫣😆 I had extra free time and discovered a Chinese language Solidtronics ST-4 video.

I ended up ordering one, along with specialized cables for several portable and mobile radios.
It was all pretty pricey for what looked like cheap hardware, the interface cables were expensive as well.
And.. the shipping was pretty to boot. (from HK).

It took a few weeks to arrive and came with nearly no instructions or documentation.

BUT —>>. IT WORKED FLAWLESSLY !

The only issue is lack of support for some configuration options and future issues.
Other than that, it’s been a great solution for me.

Note - it comes with an AC to DC “wall wart” power supply.
BE CAREFUL - IT IS 5VDC ! The unit input is 5-6vdc and a paper note enclosed said something about “magic smoke“ if a higher voltage is used.

Good Luck!
