Tait radios

[KB8QDM]

Where did you get the programing kit from? I just picked up a Tait T2000II and I'll need that.

I bought it at the same time I bought the radio. Unfortunately, that outlet is out of business now. I've not seen it anywhere else.

Nicely timed bump of an old thread. I just got two TP9400 portables for demo for a couple weeks. So far only have some conventional analog and P25 freqs programmed into them. Still trying to learn the software.

Very small, compact, and light.

I have a 9400 portable demo as well. The new software handles the 9100 series and the 9400s. It took me all of about 1 minute to pull up an existing 9100 program and transfer it over to a 9400 All I had to change was the trunking ID. That is awesome.

Seems like a decent radio so far. Doesn't seem to be as rugged as the 9100 series though.

Where did you get the software? I've been looking but can't find a reliable source.

If they are demo equipments that that been supplied from Tait, then they'll have the programming Application. All in need to do is contact their tech support.

If they encrypted units, they don't hand out the Application like they use to. (ie look at the yahoo groups)

I came here to post some of the demo videos where they beat the crap out of the videos, but someone beat me to it. I still prefer Motorola because they have a larger network of dealers and shops, but gun to my head, I'd buy a Tait over a Motorola for my everyday carry.

Any chance anyone has the programming software for the Tait 2020?

As my ex Motorola FTR partner said, 'you can buy better product but you'll never spend as much if you go with Moto'

If it does mdc 1200, mutes the dos, I'm sold on vfd radios with it.

Yahoo Groups has a Tait group with more than 1700 members. You should find the programming software there, as Tait is not fussy about software for old radios.

I love my Tait radios. Got a TP8115, a few Orcas, and a pair of T2000ii models (2015 and 2040). Excellent quality and usually available quite reasonably second hand. The Orca models in particular are built like a tank.
