• 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.

What antennas are these on the ISICS tower sites? They are light blue colored fiberglass antennas that I have heard are very large. The first tower is owned by ISICS and the second and last towers are owned by Wright county to provide better coverage than if they relied only on the towers ISICS built. The first tower Wright county owns appears to have the same light blue colored fiberglass antennas but the second tower they own (last picture) has white fiberglass antennas. I was also wondering what kind of antennas they are. I think I have saw someone else post pictures with antennas similar to these white ones but can't seem to find them back. ISICS is a Statewide 700MHz trunked P25 Phase II system.

Blue ones are Sinclair, colored to not be as noticeable. White are anyone's guess as all the rest use white gel-coat. Probably RFS (Celwave was bought by them).
