Help with KG-935G Plus Programming & Repeater Setup – Debug Assertion Failed Error

[WSEZ969]

Hello everyone,

We are new to GMRS and just purchased radios. I’m having trouble with my Wouxun KG-935G Plus programming software. I keep getting this error when trying to program:

It appears when I try to select "COM6", which is what is set up in my device manager. Has anyone experienced this and found a solution? Then it closes.
 

My programming goal:

I live in St. Cloud, FL, and work in Orlando (32819 area). I want to be able to communicate directly with my spouse/family in St. Cloud when I’m at work.

Here is what I’ve done so far:

• I applied for access on two repeaters (one near St. Cloud, one near Orlando) but haven’t received approval yet.

• I want to program my radios so that:

  • We can use repeaters for long-distance contact if/when approved.

  • We can still talk radio-to-radio (simplex) if needed.

---

My questions:

1. How should I program the channels correctly for both repeater and simplex use between Orlando and St. Cloud?

   • Do I program the repeater channel as is and, a separate simplex channel for fallback?

2. Is there a workaround for this Debug Assertion Failed error so I can finish programming? I tried reinstalling the software and running it as admin, but it still crashes.

---

Any guidance, screenshots, or .dat file examples would be greatly appreciated. I’m new to programming GMRS for repeater use and want to set it up correctly for emergency and daily family communication.

Thank you all in advance for your help!

IIRC something like this will occur if you are using the 935G software instead of the software specifically for the 935G PLUS radio.. are you sure you are using the Plus version of the software and not the regular 935G software?  

You can download it here: https://www.buytwowayradios.com/downloads/dl/file/id/1572/product/5920/wouxun_kg_935g_plus_programming_software.zip

If you are already using the correct software then my only other response is "this sounds like a Windows issue".

HI OffRoaderX 

Yes i got the link from twowayradios.  is the software I am using. 
I downloaded chirp as alternative and trying to setup repeaters - do I have  to use the repeater channels preprogrammed or can I use any channel? 
Am I supposed to use tone or tsql ?

Its easiest to start with the pre-programmed channels so you can see what they look like in CHIRP.. Once you figure that out you can then create your own new, custom channels.

Re Tone or TSql, i believe @SteveShannon already answered that question in your other post, and because he is an officially-recognized HERD, you should listen to what he says.
