• 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.

Hi and thx for being here. I'm a Hungarian learner radio amateur. I have a Vertex VX 2000 u and a programming cable, but I have some connecting problem in DOS/Windows 2000. The C 20 software wants to communicate with the radio, says to push space and to push "A" button on the radio. I read somewhere, the "A" button means the Monitor button. When I push, nothing happens. On the radio display I see a blinking CL, later LL but I have no information what it is. Nothing can help in my environment in this old radio, maybe here are old professionals, who has advice. Thanks

too many years since DOS versions, but try:
Power off radio, press spacebar, power on radio quickly
if this does not work try power on with A button pressed

Thanks a lot, I'll try. This is a combined cable, it works with the Yaesu VX246 but there is some problem with vx2000. Have a nice day
