I have a repeater using 2 sm50 radius radios..
If you have the software or come across it you can use windows to program these or all dos programmed radios of Motorola..
Follow these steps to achieve the ability to program..
First take your radio software and place it in a folder in your root drive name it something like Motorola radio..
Next download and install dosbox..
After dosbox is installed connect the cable to your radio to your computer..
You will have to mount for example
Mount c c:\motorola
Then go-to the c drive
Next control f1 you need to map the f11 and f12 keys to your cycle up and cycle down..
Next after keys are mapped keep hitting control f11 till the cycle reads 191.has to be 191 exactly or it won't work..
Load in device manager and note the com port used by the radio.
In dosbox at the and line
Serial1=serialdirect realport :com1
This will allow dosbox to connect to com1
Sm50 uses com 1
If your radio is not connected the serial1 will produce and error.
Next run the software mine is sm50
Your software will see the radio and allow you a. Access.
I have programmed my sm50 for the gmrs repeater so I know what works.
