• 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.

Can you IP link a Kenwood NXR-710 repeater to a Icom IC-FR5000 repeater in conventional digital mode?

Has anyone perhaps got a list of what features are compatible between IDAS and nexedge (voice, text, status, GPS, Encryption, etc) in NXDN conventional modes?

I don't know of IP link.
Voice and the 15-bit encryption (digital voice scrambler) are compatible for sure, as long as you are operating on 6.25kHz conventional. Text and status should also be interoperable but I have not tried that yet.

I've been playing with a Icom and Kenwood and I can't get the text messaging to work. I asked our local Icom distributor and he said no they are not compatible.

Has anyone else tried it.

Status messaging works.

I haven't tried the encryption yet.
