• 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.

Hello all

I have a Minitor VI that I'm working on, and need some help. The Minitor VI won't receive anything. It used to, and stopped suddenly. There was something rattling inside, so I took apart the pager and came to find a metal cover came un-soldered and was just clinking around the pager. So I re-soldered it back to the board, but the pager still isn't receiving anything. I looked at the board when I had it apart, and nothing looked broken.

Does anyone have a schematic for the board so I can check and see if maybe the antenna on the board is messed up, or the RF board is. I'm not sure if this pager even uses an Antenna.. I haven't used a Minitor Pager since I got my G1.

Thanks in advance!

Motorola did not release a manual with schematics as these were intended only for depot service.
