• 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.

That figures. I ordered mine on July 16 from Rays and added the 3yr extended warranty @ $105.
anyone know if Ray is one of the dealers offering this? Maybe I can get a credit.

Only an opinion, but this has been discussed before. Now we know PII is not coming until 2018. I think they are having a real problem with it and trying to make the sales more appealing. I have had a feeling this radio was not ever going to do PII. It will be over two years since my purchase in 1st qtr 2018. That's a long time to write some code and buy licensing. I feel for the first responders that bought lots of these things. !!

Yup - does seem to be a relationship between the once again (another) delay in Phase 2 capability and this promo -- I suspect the additional delay (if ever) to get Phase 2 is starting to cause a decline in sales....

I emailed Ray yesterday and this was his reply:

Hi Chuck,

This is a Unication USA Promotion that was announced on August 1st. This promotion is a Unication USA promotion coming directly from the manufacturer and is not controlled by the dealers.

You could try contacting Unication USA about that, we unfortunately do not have control over their promotions.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Best Regards,

Ray Zimmerman
