• 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.

Greetings,

I have Motorola HT750 16 channel radio which I use for my canteen & rehab unit activities with DC Fire Department. I also work part time for a hospital doing security. The radios we have there are all old and frankly junk. I took my radio to a local Motorola dealer and gave them the frequencies I wanted added to my radio so I could use it at the hospital. The transmit is 469.8250 and receive is 464.8250 with a 516DPL. They seemed to have some difficulty in programming it they said it was their computer. I took it to work yesterday and keyed up the radio but did not activate the repeater. My question is, could they have programmed something incorrectly or is there a code or something I need to be able to hit the repeater? At the hospital they use Kenwood radios exclusively. Any help or info would be appreciated.

Yes, I received transmissions, I checked using my scanner and 516DPL is correct. That's why I am puzzled.

Did you try putting 464.825 as the transmit and 469.825 as a receive?

No I have not tried since I am going off of what the FCC has listed on our license as the frequency. I am taking it back to the radio shop I had it programmed at tomorrow and have them print out a copy of what they programmed so I can see.
