Have a couple of new TK-349's I would like to PC program. Have software and cable. Are their a couple of buttons that have to be held to get into the programing mode?
TIA, Lou

Function and one of the top buttons while power up , until it shows _prog_ or _PC_.It has been a while.

Note that the radio will only go into that mode when the programming adapter is placed into the mic\speaker jacks.

Brad, is the function a button on the side of the radio? Plugged the programing cable in, and got no response from pushing any of the buttons. Any ideas?
Thanks, Lou

Hi Lou

I must appoligise I had the later model on my mind ie:the TK-35X series.

My tk-349 I run the program in from a dos prompt and read and write.

What computer and interface are you using?The software should be KPG20D.

I am using the standard portie Kenwood programming cable and the com port 1.
When you read or write it will display PROG in the screen.
You do not need to "place it into programming mode , the program from the computer will do that for you.

Let me know and perhaps you need to set your parameters up correctly in the program first.

Regards

Brad
