1URFE57 Posted November 10, 2020 Report Posted November 10, 2020 Hello Gents I have a quick question is anyone here have a Motorola Online Membership? just want to ask if how much they charge for Annual Membership? Many thanks! de Jack Quote
Durake Posted November 10, 2020 Report Posted November 10, 2020 Hi. Motorola doesn't charge for memberships to access their Motorola Online website. They do however charge for current up-to-date software/firmware access on radios that have not yet reached their end of life (EOL) support. If you would like to download software/firmware for radios that are currently supported they will charge you a one time payment for about 3 years of access/updates to that specific software. I believe it costs around $300-400 per software. Hope this answers your question!-Drake. Quote
1URFE57 Posted November 10, 2020 Author Report Posted November 10, 2020 Thank you very much for the quick reply what I'm after is to have access to discontinued CPS not ready to spend those $$$$. Still waiting for the second part of account activation. Again Thank you very much! 73! Jack Quote
WRAK968 Posted November 10, 2020 Report Posted November 10, 2020 How exactly does one sign up for MOL? Whenever I look it up on google it seems to only give me the main website. Quote

gman1971 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Posted November 11, 2020 Totally free to just open the account. The 3 year CPS subscription is where the $$$$ is at. G. 1URFE57 1 Quote
WRAK968 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Posted November 11, 2020 I dont need CPS though, just software for the 1225 series radios, and a friend just asked me about programming maxtrac. Quote
SteveC7010 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Posted November 11, 2020 The Maxtrac RSS is not to be found on MOL. If all you need is the 1225, it may not be worth the gyrations to set up an account. Quote

I would like to get them programmed up and working, however Im not sure which RSS it needs. Last RSS I did try it mentioned I needed some extra code (not the code plug but an add on software for the radio itself) Not sure where to go with that. Quote
SteveC7010 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Posted November 11, 2020 Which models? There’s different packages for different models. Quote

SteveC7010 Posted November 12, 2020 Report Posted November 12, 2020 Check this thread from RR on that radio. They reference info over on the Batboard which may very useful. https://forums.radioreference.com/threads/radius-d34lra77a5dk-dash-mount-programming.374358/ Quote

Lscott Posted November 13, 2020 Report Posted November 13, 2020 You need an old computer to program I bought a $39 Tower with Win-XP RSS is available online if you know where to look.As mentioned you can use VirtualBox to make a virtual machine and run Windows in it. You can get an old version of windows here. Using Windows XP usually isn't required so running Windows 2000 should work fine. https://winworldpc.com/product/windows-nt-2000/final Quote
1URFE57 Posted November 16, 2020 Author Report Posted November 16, 2020 VritualBox is free and works just fine.Easy to install too but didn't work for me and I want a dedicated computer for just programming. And if you go Virtualbox route get your Old windows here:www.winworldpc.com no XP but they have 95,98, and 2000 and some latest/last release DOS. Quote

edrock878787 Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 looking to buy software for Motorola radius model d34lra77a5dk edufour62@sbcglobal.net Quote
Radioguy7268 Posted July 4 Report Posted July 4 You're not going to be able to buy the software for that from Motorola. That radio is about 30 years outside the Factory support window. There's a few different places online where you can find Radius mobile RSS available for free download, but you'll need to run something like DosBox to emulate a really slow old 386 PC processor. Hamfiles is where I'd probably start looking for the software. You should probably also get familiar with the Repeater-builder.com Radius and Maxtrac Mobile page gortex2 1 Quote
