Fast same day shipping on orders received before 3 pm Pacific Time

I own an XPR6550 and an XPR7550 so I know this cable works. 

The factory programming software title that supports these radio models is Motorola Mototrbo CPS must be purchased online directly from Motorola On LIne (MOL) to comply with their software licensing regulations. This CPS works on Windows 10 and many older versions of Windows. 

With the cable you get my installation instructions, email address and cell phone number.

   My call is KJ6ZWL. This is my passion!  My cables work!  I now have more than 120 radios, costing more than $20K used just for testing my cables with programming software.  I am not your typical eBay seller, so please take a moment and read on to understand my message to you. I provide excellent installation instructions with every cable.   You get my personal email, cell phone number and my promise that I will do my very best to support you. I worked as a computer support engineer for 15 years before starting this business.  If you are not happy with my cables, I will give you a full refund.

My goal is to organize all my eBay cable listings by factory programming software title and provide an internet link to the software for those who need it.  In addition, this will enable me to communicate what I know about the operating systems that are required to successfully program your radio before you buy my cable.  This is a very large task that will take years.  Please excuse the mistakes I will make during the reorganization.  Let me know about any listing errors and/or omissions so I can correct them for the greater good.   If you do not see your radio model in my store and you see I sell the cable you think you need, contact me.

  Please check this listing’s photos for a close-up of the connector to ensure that this cable matches the physical characteristics of your radio’s port before ordering this cable.  Most radios use the microphone jack as the programming port, but some have a separate data port for programming and/or PC to internal TNC interface. It is important to know that programming cables use fewer signal pins than a microphone, so the pinouts are typically simpler than your microphone cable.

  Being able to program your rig using a spreadsheet style of user interface, albeit sometimes a bit primitive, can make your life so much easier. I know from experience that this is true.  Here is my recipe for getting you up and running for a fair price with some sound advice.

Here’s what you want to avoid:

·  Any USB programming cable priced under $10 is junk with no support if you need help, period!  You get what you pay for!  You already know this or you wouldn’t have opened this listing.

·  eBay sellers who sell anything in their store and know nothing the cables they sell.

·  Virtually all cables come with no installation instructions.

·  Missing OS compatibility claims altogether or disclaimers about Windows 64-bit not being supported are another big red flag.

·  Seller listings with poor English grammar and a USA shipping address is another thing to watch out for.

·  eBay Seller Location: US, US.  Where is that exactly?

·  If you think you can send a cable back to China and get your money refunded you must be from Mars.

Here is what you want:

·  You want to buy from someone who knows a great deal about programming HAM radios and scanners.

·  Buy from someone who can make sure you can find the right programming software (CPS) for your model radio and make sure the software you need is compatible with the version of Operating System you are using. 

· Carefully examine the connector for the radio side to ensure it matches your radio.  Listing errors do occur because sellers have to create so damn many listings to cover the 4300+ radios in the marketplace today.  If you discover discrepancies between your radio and one of my listings, please let me know so I can correct.  

·  Proprietary connectors do cost 20 to 40% more so you will see that reflected in the sellers’ prices.

·  I offer a 1-year warranty on the cable if and only if you don’t mess with it.  I don’t send you to China if you have a problem.  Yes, the cables are assembled and tested in China.  I don’t make these in my garage.

·  Please check out my store on eBay.

·  If you are not certain that this the right cable for your radio please contact me first with an eBay message before you click buy now.  This will save us both time, money and frustration if we figure everything out together before you place your order.
