Is there any way to program the eprom in a 950/990 without the suitcase programmer. I have documentation on the memory layout but it is mostly greek. I also have a prom burner but the devil is in the details.
Any one have any software for this?
Thanks,
Fred

You can program the 950/990 head by just powering it and interfacing it with the TQ3370 (Rib) there is no need to have a radio connected, or an eeprom burner, you just need the program cable, Rib & Software.
You can check for software on http://www.radtek.ws

Info on 3370
Can you elaborate a little? I have an interface that goes between my serial port and an mpa, mpd, or 825 head. Is that same interface the 3370? If so, where do I get the software?
Or, if not, who has 3370's/sw and what does it usually cost?
Thanks,

Re: Info on 3370
Ok, The interface that goes between the PC and the radio should be a TQ3370 or a clone RIB (Radio Interface Box) you will need a cable that interfaces between the RIB & the Control Head (Not sure of what cable you actually have) The software can be found at http://www.radtek.wsNumber2 wrote:Can you elaborate a little?

990 software
Yes and No. The 900 series with factory firmware has to be programmed with the notorious GE suitcase programmer or the Niles programmer. The Niles software has been released for free use (they no longer suppoert the programmer) and if you have an eeprom programmer that will do the Xicor X2816 eeprom that is in the head you can create a binary image (up to 8 modes of 16 channels) that will do it. On the Radtek site

there is a file named s990prog.zip that when burned into the 2764 eprom (UV eraseable) will allow front panel programming of the 990 head. angel3.gif
