I guess he could but he also said which other frequencies he could use. So we really don't know how is going to use the radio. Looks like he is just trying to use them between his radios and not for official reason.

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.

Many agencies, can/do use the Outputs for some Simplex ops, altho some never listed on the FCC licenseswhich should be MO's
Additionally the License quoted only lists Repeaters (FB2) and not even the inputs. WPLU697 lists the inputs
I'll point out that FCC rule 90.621(a)(1)(ii) allows 800 MHz licensees to operate simplex on any repeater output without the need for licensing additional MO's.
The op is over 100 miles from the system listed and was the only listing in MD
Not used by the trunked system in Howard County, but they still hold a license under WPQX905 for 860.7375 and most likely used for simplex operation like the database on this site shows.

No. Motorola blocked the NPSAPC specific frequencies, to force public safety agencies to the ASTRO series. The XPR7x80/5x80series radios cover 806-941MHz. This is why you need the 'Canadian' EID to unlock those specific frequencies.
To let you all know, yes I have permission to use this. But the radios are suddenly talking to each other, but when I'm on a different zone. I'm guessing it's a scna issue which I can easily fix. Guess it went under my radar. Thanks to all!
Any moderator here can close this thread as I think I have solved it. Thank you everyone!
Update: all working.
Exactly this. Thanks!
Thanks.
