• 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 have a PD702G (firmware A7.06.06.000) that I bought off ebay. I am trying to program it and am having issues.

The first thing I did was download the code plug from the radio to use as a template. I modified some channels and tried to write to the radio. It has the "click OK to write screen appear", but when I click OK the screen disappears and never writes to the radio.

I have another 702 (has newer firmware A9.02.03.005) that I have successfully written to so I don't think I have a problem with the software/driver/etc.

I am thinking its maybe a firmware issue (although I have not figured out how to update the firmware). However, I am not sure how to solve it if I can't write to the radio to update the firmware.

this might be because the CPS you are using for the radio with FW 9 is not full compatible with the FW7?

You will need the update of the FW to 8 and then to 9 AFAIK
Look for subscriber upgrade files in net
