• 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 have 2 questions regarding the Tait TB7300 Transportable:

1) What VHF band splits actually exist for it? The brochure lists only B1 (136-174MHz) but my pricing sheet lists 2 VHF splits, B1F0 (136-156MHz) and B1G0 (152-174MHz). Is the difference between F0 and G0 just the included duplexer, or are there actually differences with the repeater itself? Can swapping the duplexer between bands allow for one unit to cover frequencies in both halves of their total VHF split as-needed?

2) Does anyone know anything about the half-duplex (?) model which uses a coax relay instead of a duplexer? I can find no info about them, and they seem to share model #s with their duplexer-equiped counterparts, but I recently came across a few - can they be converted to full-duplex with the addition of a duplexer and a software config change, or are there more differences that I'm not aware of?

Thanks in advance for any info - I'm having a fair bit of trouble finding info on these things.
