• 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.

I am running a dual radio with one control head setup.

Radio A has a channel in it to activate a door opener. I have setup a MACRO assigned to a control head button to automatically go to that channel and key the door so it will open/close whether your on Radio A or Radio B. When Radio A is selected, everything works fine. Goes to correct system/group, opens door, and goes back to Home System/Group like it is suppose to. When Radio B is selected, it will select Radio A, open door, go back to Home System/Group, then it hangs up. I'm trying to get it to go back to Radio B.

Here is the MACRO setup for Radio B:

MACRO PRESS

KEYSTROKE
1 RAD1 PRESS
2 MACDY PRESS AND RELEASE
3 OPT1 PRESS
4 MACDT PRESS AND RELEASE
5 ENC1 PRESS
6 MACDY PRESS AND RELEASE
7 MACDY PRESS AND RELEASE
8 MACDY PRESS AND RELEASE
9 SG1 PRESS
10 MACDY PRESS AND RELEASE
11 RAD2 PRESS

At keystroke 11, I have also tried "RAD" which is suppose to select the non-selected radio.

Any ideas? I have tried adding more delay after keystroke 9, but it won't go back to Radio B.
