Question

Posted

Has anyone had luck using the manufacturer’s CPS (computer programming software) with the db20g? Program allows me to download from radio, and see the entire file, but it won’t allow  me add PL tones no matter how I click the field? I’ve tried the keyboard, mouse and tried batch channel editing and nothing can be edited in the software other than the name of the channels. Am I missing something? Chirp is not supported yet with this radio far as I know.

No one I have ever met in person has had any “luck” with that radio In General. It usually gets returned of filed in the round file in a few days.  

Hey Negative Nancy,  thats because you never meet anyone..  Nobody wants anything to do with you!

Ive been running it for 5 months or so and it’s been great actually. I’ve just been programming it manually which isn’t too bad. But I’d like to get the software to work if possible.

I did get the software to work.  I had a problem at first, with getting the right driver.  The only issue I remember with the software programming was with channel 39 which I had originally programmed for simplex using the buttons.  I don't recall any issue with entering tones.  Can't you change the tones using the buttons?

Yeh I can program it manually. I would like software to work though.

Alright my guys! I will take your tips and apply them when I get a chance this evening. Thanks. I’m thinking I didn’t double click the furthest right arrow or carrot as that’s not anything like the wouxon chirp or baofeng software that I’ve used.

That’s right; the software works differently than Chirp. As others said click on the caret. 
Disregard Socialmisfit. In fact add him to your ignore list. He never has any useful.
