Posted by Two Way Direct on 12th Oct 2020

The most popular Motorola two-way radio is the CP200 analog two-way radio, and most recently, the digital counterpart, CP200d two-way radio. However, most radios can be programmed to customized frequencies. In most cases, you can program different radio brands to communicate to each other, as long as they are all on the same frequencies.  

What Do I Need To Program Two-Way Radios?

Typically, two-way radios are programmed on PC. Most programming software is only designed to run on a PC, and not on a Mac. To program your radios, you will need the radios to program, radio programming software for your computer, and a programming cable with a USB and proper connection for your two-way radio.

Programing software is available in a CD format. It can also be available as a downloadable link online.
