• 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.

Walmart no longer MURS

walmart 4 digit code thing...
google-There isn't a single "Walmart 4-digit store code" that applies to every store; rather, Walmart uses a 4-digit number system to identify individual stores

This is now going off on two different things, one radio related and one not. yea each store has an internal corporate ID #. Now, the curve radios have the ability to be programmed to communicate with each other using a 4 digit code as a profile ID # they call it. The default stated in the curve manual is 0000. Each radio must be on the same profile ID to communicate. The old RDM2070d's were similar in that specific DPL codes could be changed by the user. The walmart default code would show on the screen as code 057 which the manual charts to DPL 131. I'd imagine their walmart ordered curve radios would be similar, all walmart ordered models would have the same profile ID unless changed locally by the store. and rest of the discusssion, they also have the same internal wifi store network login, a zebra handheld could go from store to store, and there was an additional box for the store ID number, in addition to the users credentials

Right, what I was talking about was the profile id, so each radio would have the same profile to allow them to talk to each other. If they used the store number as the profile number they wouldn't be able to talk if they went to another store to work.

They keep the new curves locked up and people sign them out. Be nice if someone could get that code.
It will leak. If it doesn't then the Pentagon ought to ask Walmart for security suggestions. lol

...and when it does, they'll change it.
If people interfere with enough Walmart or the right ones. Otherwise, if people are passively listening, it's unlikely to get changed.

I'm sure you're right but, there are others in this thread who have bragged about some of the things they've done.

I was honestly hoping some of that was a joke...However, you may be right.
