• 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.

Finally decided to make an account after being tasked with getting 3x CM200d's (VER R01.21.03.0002) connected to a recently purchased Cubic/Vocality ROIP device to integrate with our Firstnet radios. These CM200d's were operating as Bus Radios for the last few years and I'm not sure how difficult it is going to be to reprogram these using CPS to work on the appropriate channels. I was provided a table of channels/frequencies from an R7 and I have our general reference table for the frequencies that we are operating in.

I'm hoping there is a crash course for dummies or a good youtube video to accomplish this but most of the motorola stuff I can stumble across seems to relate to the handhelds and not the mobile variants (not sure if there is a difference).

Please let me know if I can answer any questions.

I think it's pretty easy... I believe that is M2021.04 so you need CPS 2. Plug the radio into the PC, do a read on it... make changes as necessary in the software... and then write to it. Done. If the 3 radios match, you can then clone to the other 2.
