SargeRN got a reaction from tweiss3 in Base station
Well, my friend that works at a commercial radio dealer came through. They had some Kenwood TK-880 public service trade -ins! Picked one up and he had already programmed it for our local GMRS frequencies. Currently have it hooked up to a temporary indoor antenna waiting for my base antenna to arrive. Folks tell me it sounds good, and I know the receive is good.
Thanks for all the help group!

Thanks PACNWComms. I have a friend, another local ham, that works for one of the commercial radio shops here. I'm going to see what they might accidently have laying around. A few years ago the same shop had a warehouse full of "stuff" and it was "if you want it come haul it away." Local ham club got some usable power supplies out of that among other things! And the local club also has some Kenwood mobiles that were donated to us when the local school bus company changed out radios. I'll have to look to see what they are and if they are of any use.
Thanks again group!!

SargeRN got a reaction from Sshannon in Radiodiddy GM 30 programming
New here and just got my GM 30. Had downloaded the software and made the changes I wanted.
So, to the cable. I have one I use to program my Anytone 878 and hoped it would work - NO GO!! Next was a Kenwood cable from RT Systems - YES IT WORKED PERFECTLY!!! So if you have a K4Y USB cable from RT Systems you are in great shape!
Hope this will help!
Been an Amateur for many years and a few of us locally are now getting into GMRS and really enjoying ourselves.
Thanks for a great website!!
