• 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.

That's supposed to be the TP-9900. It was mentioned at IWCE, but haven't see anything else about it.

But, between the 9700 and the Kenwood VP8000, these will probably be the radios many hams will be eager to get their hands on.
Our county shop has a TP9800 on loan from Tait and they offered it to me to try out for a while. Nice small package...

Yea, we got the Tait demo package with 2 TP9800's. Agree, nice form factor. But what I don't understand is why the multiple model numbers. 1 model -could- cover it all. The problem with the different models is it would be my assumption that you can not upgrade to P25/DMR eith these 2 models, something many in my area are looking for.

Hopefully the TP9900 envision didn't get scrapped.
