• 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'd talk it over with the company as Doc suggested. (BTW, I don't see where any one isn't listening to what you're posting. Some just want more info/insight to your posts.)
Sure MURs and FRS are good to go, but as you mentioned, not many drivers would change from the tried and true. As stated, try talking with the bosses.That may help you out.

A side note to the mention of "...martial law..."; if it came down to something of that nature, YOU would not be laughing. No body would be laughing. This could be the making of an interesting thread if you'd care to start it!
Hey, You never know. I hope i'm wrong.

Allan_Love_Jr,
And if that martial law does take affect, do you really think CB radio would be exempt? Depending on the reason and the severity of it, any/all radio communications could be halted, including cell phones. No idea where to find such, but you can bet that there are contingency plans that would include that scenario. In such a case, the FCC would be the least of your worries.

Slow down please

I don't want this post closed to comments because of off subject comments. I want others to have the ability to do so, please.
