Hi, I have a few questions. I recently got an ef johnson 5100 es and I need to get it programed for my volunteer fire department. We operate on low, high and 800. I was wondering if this portable would be capable of being programmed for each band since it has three channels with 16 sub channels. the model number is 242-512A-433JH6. I am in oswego county, ny. I would really appreciate any help that i can get as i have tried my local radio shops and none of them can program ef's. Thanks in advance.

Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Okay, So I just got myself a dozen EF Johnson 5100ES's and I'm trying to program them but it will not let me. I have been told that I need a key or the dummy key. I really do not feel like paying a bunch of money to somebody on eBay as I can do it myself. All I am looking for is the 1234 Dummy key for this.
