Picked up a TK-780-1 at Dayton. It lights up 'unprogrammed'. The standard programming software (49D) says 'check model number' when I try to read the radio.
Programming tech at the shop says Kenwood support says it's a Canadian or European version that needs a different programmer. (and of course they won't sell it to us in the US).
Anybody have any clues/tricks that would let me program this radio? Thanks

HI,
for the Europeen Version you have to use KPG-60 Software (Windows-Based)
It should work then.

Something makes me think that you can't "read" and unprogrammed radio. You just create the file with the freqs and such that you want, then just "write" to the radio.

You have to select the correct model of radio from the menu, though.
