• 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.

Not aware of any setting that would intentionally or accidently cause this... I'm thinking it may either be a network (repeater or EDACS) 'problem' if its noticable on more than one radio.

Need more information on this though:
Does this happen on your LPE alone, or others LPEs too, or a mix of radios on your system (ie LPE, MRK, Orion, MDX, P7100 etc)?
EDACS or conventional, or a mix of both? If a mix, does it happen on one or the other, or both?
800 or 900 MHz?
Does this happen everywhere you go, or just one particular location?

It's a known problem with the LPE series and there is a board-level fix for it. It's a result of too much DC on the speaker leads, I believe.

A batch of M7100s did the same thing. From what I understand, tiny pf resistor the size of a pin head had to be installed.
