Thanks for your reply. Please see the attachment for CPS. Thanks.What radio? What CPS?
We did the same on our system with any radios that an authorized few that were allowed to purchase their own hardware. The paperwork that was signed prior to programming included the agreement that we'd do any programming (they wanted, as long as it was't prohibitively inconvenient or contrary to system programming basics. I'd put in a local ham repeater for a licensed guy but not enabling transmit on the neighboring towns chief's channel, etc), they'd pay for their share of firmware updates, it would stay passworded and selective inhibit enabled and it would be wiped by us at end of employment.I password protect every radio active on our system that is county owned property. While selective inhibit is the first line of defense for lost/stolen
Any codeplug that I create is password protected. From reading. I don't care if someone writes over top of my work, but I'm pretty sure that if they didn't take the time to create my codeplug, they should not benefit from my work.This is the reason codeplugs should not be password protected. If it's a personal radio, do what ever your heart desires. If it's a customer's radio, it's their choice if they want the codeplug password protected, not the programmer. Do not password protect a codeplug out of malicious intent to get more business from the customer, that's a quick way to piss off a customer and once word spreads and lose their business entirely. I know some of you are guilty of this bullsh*t in an attempt to hold the customer hostage when it comes to programming radios.
Understandable if you do this on your own personal radios or if you maintain a system owned by your employer. If you work for a radio shop and a customer doesn't specifically want the codeplug password protected and you still do it, you're just an unethical moron.Any codeplug that I create is password protected.

Actually, expecting me to 'give up' my intellectual property for free is what's unethical. If you did not pay me to produce a codeplug that could be freely copied - then it's not logical that you should expect to benefit from my labor.Understandable if you do this on your own personal radios or if you maintain a system owned by your employer.

Can you copyright, patent, trademark or declare your codeplug a trade secret? No? Then it's not intellectual property.Actually, expecting me to 'give up' my intellectual property for free is what's unethical. If you did not pay me to produce a codeplug that could be
