Sitting here looking at my KPG-92D and I am trying to figure out how to narrowband this radio Any ideas?

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.

Not the right place for this post I am trying to delete it
I moved it for you.
Don't you need the 89d?
On my 7180/8180 there is a "wide/narrow" drop down box for each frequency.

OK I see the wide/ narrow drop down Will this put the channells in the range I need them? I appologize I am a better firefighter then radio programmer I still dont fully understand narrowbanding I am self educating
scannerfreak thanks for the move I thought I could re post it in Kenwood and delete But I can only edit
No problem. Remember, you can always report your own post to have it moved using the report button.
Yes, that should do it. I'm not familiar with the software you are using so hopefully someone else can confirm.
Wide/narrow will change the parameters for that channel and will take care of both transmit and receive, so yes this is all you have to do to narrow band them.
Ideally the radio should be checked for proper alignment when switching to narrow, but realistically with this series I rarely a radio out of whack. Kenwood has gotten much better in the later radios with them shipping spot on.

Each channel must be set to wide or narrow band. It is NOT a radio wide setting but a per channel setting. Default is most likely Wide. Wide band radios deviate +/- 5KHz, narrow band deviates +/- 2.5KHz.
