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.

If your pager is supplied by your agency, I would report this issue to the necessary powers to be. This would require involvement by the radio shop to rectify.

Is there away to stop the relay after the initial page? Mine keeps ringing a bell I have attached to it every time a TG comes on the air. Isn't the radio supposed to Mute after the dispatch carrier drops?

Twice I have done this now and twice I received new PPS software.
Where the ((Y(&*#$^)) is the firmware for my G4?
The set up Wizard ends.
Tells me to use the installer.
Where the )E%$ is this installer?
Unication says the installer window will appear.
Nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?
What am I missing?
What is supposed to happen for me to get G4 firmware installed into my G4?
This may be simple for you folks but us computer illiterates have a real challenge.
Then the instructions tell me to run the updater.
Where is the updater?
I found it on my computer but it says nothing about g4 firmware.
It seems to say updates are automatic.
Nothing automatic here.

My laptop is a windows 7.
Is that the problem?

It's possible that they have the audio source cranked up so their pagers will decode properly. We went through this on our old analog trunked system; since 800 MHz deviation was so much lower than the old conventional systems, the tone levels had to be cranked up considerably so that the Plectron receivers would decode the tones (fortunately the tone levels could be set independently). Sounds like maybe this agency overcompensated and cranked the whole thing.
We've also got a similar issue (in reverse) in this area. The local big-city fire department uses Locution, and the audio level on the alerting talkgroup is quite a bit lower than all others; when you turn up your radio so you can hear the nice automated lady talk, the other talkgroups blow out your eardrums.
If the tone levels can't be adjusted independently at the console, there may be nothing that can be done at the console level, in which case a per-talkgroup (or frequency) audio cut/boost setting in the Unication would be just the ticket. I've got several G5s around here and such a setting would be quite handy.
Hmmmmm. Maybe I should send an email to the friendly folks at Unication about this....
