• 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.

Hello


I have a G3 pager im doing my best to program but cant figure out how to get the conventional channel list to come up in the box where you can program the knob even after sleeping norma scan nothing comes up in the transfer box. So I Tried importing through radio Ref , but it only puts tow channels in each knob. You can load the knob but as soon as you delete a knob the channels disappeared from the pager.

This is the best way I can explain. I know it s confusing.

Scott-

What version of PPS are you using? Before you can program the freqs/channels to the various knob positions, you need to load them into the conventional freq list... for my version of the PPS (3.16.29E), it's section D2. What have you got programmed there?

It sounds like maybe you want to scan several conventional channels, but they aren't appearing in the AVAILABLE box. In order to be in this box, to be added to a scan knob, they must first be added to another knob position, one frequency to each knob. If they are not, they will not appear in the AVAILABLE box. After you have them in individual knobs, they will then appear in the AVAILABLE box, and can be added to a knob to be scanned. This doesn't seem to be explained well in the documentation. Good luck!
