Sorry for the delay. I'll check when I am back at my laptop.

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 changed my STARS FSS to 625 KHz and finally got a lock. Not sure how long it took to get it, but it was probably more than 30 minutes to cover 151.000 to 162.000 MHz. Perhaps the internal G5 VHF antenna is a contributing factor to reception.
@RaleighGuy, you got the answer much sooner than I did, but here are the benefits of today's homework: For STARS and Full Spectrum Scan, I had originally started at 151.000-162.000, which encompassed the range of all STARS VHF frequencies. I needed to use 6250 Hz steps. With the help of Excel, I found by starting at the exact frequency 151.0325 and ending at 161.950, I could step at 12500 Hz steps and not miss any of the control channels. I locked onto a control channel in 12 seconds. Reception is definitely the challenge for the G5 in VHF.

I assume the Unication can do CC only trunking?
