• 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 3 Vertex 99ch FTL-1011 radios that I am trying to program.. I have built the codeplugs and all is well, but no matter what I do, I cannot get the radios to scan. I can edit the scan list, change the priority selections, etc, but not actually scan. The Scan button does nothing, and there is nothing in the CE7 software that allows you to program anything other than what the A button does.

Anyone have any ideas?

Probably a silly question, but is the mic grounded? I don't have specific experience with the 1011, but have some with the sister 2011 and 7011. I know they need to have grounded mics to scan. Good luck.

I have the mic grounding disabled in the software, and even putting the hangup clip on the back of the mic doesn't work either.
