• 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.

Would anyone be interested in a very basic tool that takes a Motorola basic privacy decimal key and converts it to the short hex key, as well as calculating the long hex key and the actual cipher frame? Like this:
Code:
 -----------------------------
        BP Key Converter
 -----------------------------
  Key [0 - 255]: 132  <<< Enter decimal key
  Short Hex Key: 688A
  Long Hex  Key: 680A688A688A
  Silence Frame: F801A99F8CE0
  Cipher  Frame: 900BC115E46A
 -----------------------------
Keep in mind this is a very simple program for educational/testing purposes only! As written, this cannot be used to recover unknown keys. I promise you, this program will not let you listen to encrypted communications.

This program is designed to be used to verify your captured cipher frames and check them for accuracy. This assumes that you own, or have permission to use, the testing system and have permission to use the key.

Except for the actual short hex keys (which can be easily searched for and freely acquired), the rest is all basic math. No voodoo or dark spells required. I wish I had this 10 years ago.
