Try this site for a generic programming interface and pinouts for common Kenwood and other brand radios: http://www.cqham.ru/uniprog2_eng.html I just tried the site, and I can't get it to come up... but I'm deployed in Iraq, and I'm a gov't network that's pretty locked down, so that might have some...

Re: Kenwood Software

eBay has been getting strict prohibiting anything that may be a copy of software or a service manual so you no longer see the CD's with Kenwood software or manuals that used to be common. I just bought a CD off of eBay that supposedly has all of the Kenwood software. It said very plainly in the des...

Cable diagrams

I've tried Googling it, but I can't seem to find any site that has the various cable pinouts for Kenwood cables. I'd be willing to put them up on a website if I could find the information to begin with... or is this supposed to be some kind of guarded secret?

...let's say you wanted to legitimately purchase Kenwood programming software, where would you get it? I browsed Kenwood's site but didn't see anywhere any software was available...

What gives?

...all the Kenwood fanatics here, and nobody knows the answer??

Is there a difference between the KPG-8 and other RJ11 type Kenwood cables?? Or are all the RJ11 type Kenwood cables the same?

No Motorola Forum

I thought I landed in radio heaven when finding this site, however, I noticed there's no forums for Motorolas... how come? The reason I asked is because I was considering bidding on a Motorola Maxtrac 300 VHF, but I know nothing about them. I don't know what it takes to program them software or hard...

Interesting... I've had miserable results with a similar scanario using a SIIG (nine pin) USB-serial adapter and my HP Pavilion running Windoze XP. I had assumed it was an issue with XP. Maybe it's my adapter...? ...I wonder, do you have to boot the PC into DOS before you can program a SIIG like yo...

Thanks! Just bought two of 'em. ...just curious, how well do they work if you have to boot your system to DOS? I believe some of the KPG progs require a boot up to DOS. I did, however, successfully program my FT-90 (Yaesu HAM) using one of the USB to Serial cables. I *THINK* I programmed some of our...

I FINALLY found the software on eBay that was combined with most of the other KPG programming sets. I can't, however, find the KPG-8 for sale, or even a pin-out diagram for it. I did find one message posted a little over four years ago from a guy that said he had the pin-out for the KPG-4, KPG-8, an...
