Has anybody got the vertex programmer working? I made the cables found here on batlabs and it won't work on some VX-3000V.
Ant help would be appreciated.

A RIB will program a Vertex radio with a different cable to the computer.

I built the cables that BatLabs has listed and it worked fine.

Most ALL Vertex software is DOS based, and needs to be run from PURE DOS not the windows 9X stuff. Boot to DOS 6.xx from a floppy disk and try, you may be amazed!
