In the Zone List I see "User Define" and "Ch. Setting" but I can't find any explanation of what this is and how it is used. This is a great little radio but the so-called manuals are useless.

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.

Which tab are you seeing this in? Could you send a screen shot?

They are at the bottom of the Zone List in the menu on the radio itself.

User Define/Channel Setting G4/G5
He's talking about clicking the little blue triangle on the left and it gives you THIS screen *below photo* you scroll to the bottom and it has those settings. What they do? I clicked into them and it seemed to have no functions *yet* Both said "unprogrammed" even though I have 9 Zones etc. The link provided was just guys arguing about what they were for and others trying to describe what they were even talking about. Some type of user defined ability to do things on the fly for the next firmware? who knows?
