• 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.

I have 2 MD380's The new one has firmware D014.007 CP ver 1.30. It works fine. It is a UHF version, THe Code Plug Loads up and works fine on both radios. When I read the code plug on the new radio it reads very fast. It reads all the data correctly except it thinks in a 2 meter radio. It shows this in Basic information panel. Shows Freq 136-174. It is wrong. All my repeaters and hot spot frequencies are UHF. The label on the back of the radio under the battery says 400-480Mhz. Weird
My Older Md380 doesn't do that. It also had MD380 Tools installed.
When I use third party software. DMR Code Plug Editor V1.1.2 1by G6AMU it doesn't do that.
If you have any ideas. Email me kconno6121@gmail.com

Maybe TYT have done some simplification and have more common code between the single band radio and the dual band one and the databit that tells what band it is have moved and can't be handled by an old CPS. Have you search for any newer codeplug programmer version from TYT?
