• 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.

Looking for sample CPS for AAH25KDF9AA5AN with PMUD1482C

Got this HT1250 radio AAH25KDF9AA5AN and TANAPA PMUD1482C that has a EEPROM CS ERROR that should most likely be correctable with CPS R06.12.05, and when trying to read the radio I do indeed get the pop up saying that the codeplug is corrupted and one of the options being presented is to recover, but when I proceed from there (after the make sure battery is not low warning) but I do get a RECOVERY FAILED because the default codeplug for the target radio could not be found.

If I go with the second option, Proceed without Recovery, I do get an error that says "Size of RRO Region must be at least 3 bytes".

I checked the list of sample codeplugs (present inside the samples directory) and there is a very close codeplug file, but the TANAPA ends in D (sample codeplug file H25KDF9AA5_PMUD1482D.cpg) instead of ending in C as the one from the radio. So I am guessing that the last letter from the TANAPA is critical so the D version I've got is not good enough for recovering the C version of the actual radio. Might try to just temporarily rename the file to match to see what happens, but wanted to check first if by any chance anyone here might have the right file. Not much else that could go wrong in the radio by trying this, I would think.

Did even try reading the radio with earlier CPS versions starting from R06.05.00, R06.09.06, R06.10.02, and R06.11.05, but all except the R06.11 version gave me the "...at least 3 byte error", guessing because for starters these older versions of the CPS did not even come with a codeplug sample directory.

So I am assuming that I need to find a sample codeplug that is exactly "H25KDF9AA5AN_PMUD1482C.cpg".
So far done some online searches but no luck so far finding the file.

Thank you for the link, I was formerly aware of the site but had forgotten about it over time. Looks like I have two options: 1. according to a video on YT one can use the Warris Lab available at the site you mentioned to push a codeplug onto the radio, or 2. according to some postings right here in this forum to use CPS R06.04 which appears to be able to push a codeplug into the radio without first reading it. Unfortunately the oldest CPS version I do have is R06.05 and that one certainly did not work as it fails when trying to read the radio first. Others mentioned that if one tries repeadedly to write the codeplug into the radio with other CPS versions bellow R06.11 that at some point the process may succeed, but its kind of a hit and miss situation. Looks like I'm going to have to install the Warris Lab to give it a try and see how that goes.
