I looked at the web site and couldn't determine what was what as it had an account / login area. There are so many areas to download from with different OS. I'm using x/p pro and I see that there is a windows download; does this cover all flavors of windows OS? Also, do you have any experience programming MTS 2000 radios using this software? TIA for your reply. 73, Don, KD9PT ----- Original Message ----- From: Tim - WD6AWP To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, August 09, 2010 9:02 AM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] DOSBox to Program Radios DOSBox (www.dosbox.com) is an x86 emulator with DOS. It works great for programming those radios that need old, slow PCs for the software. I use it on my MacBook dual booting into Windows 7 and using an IO Gear USB serial dongle on COM1. So far I've programmed a couple of Radius M1225's and a VXR-5000. A friend of mine has similar results with Windows XP on a 800Mhz PC with a real serial port. -- Tim
