DCI Software Products
The most popular software product in the LMR industry!
Virtually a STANDARD for radio system designs.
CommShoptm is available for Windows (95, 98, 2000, XP)
from one of our users (Feb 6, 2006):
"Dear Steve,
We at Dataradio continue to use your program. I recommend it to all of my training students that attend our
training classes for Dataradio products. I am replacing my copy which I loaned to someone and he liked it too well!
. . .
Thanks again for a great piece of software that is very valuable and still reasonably priced.
Regards,
Harry Ebbeson, Mgr.Tech. Support"
Thank You Harry, for that unsolicited comment! Steve

With full windows multi-tasking screens, CommShop v4.5 solves LMR System Designs in a snap. This is a sample screen of the Range Analysis program that takes in system parameters and calculates the Estimated Usable Range.
In addition, CommShop 4.5 provides ERP (Effective Radiated Power) and Radio Horizon calculations.
Each calculation is performed based on the frequency band, system parameters, and proven field tests.
New to CommShop v4.5 is the ability to take input from both the transmit and receive path for a two-way path calculation.
Each path data can be saved for later usage without re-entry.
Intermod Predictions
CommShop's Intermod program can store up to 300 Transmit Frequencies.
Once the "prediction" window is set (center freq, bandwidth, harmonics, max freqs to mix)
the program quickly runs through the list of TX freqs to find any predicted hits.
In this example, the Product of 150.1750 is produced from the 4th harmonic of Freq 2 + the 3rd harmonic of Freq 3.

The CommShop Audio board comes with the software to look-up all of those tone formats that are used daily in the shop.
Simply plug this 1/2 AT card into any open slot in your PC and hook-up the BNC cable to your freq generator, and that's it. The software (DOS) handles all the look-up tables. Digital (cursor) control sets the output level (no pots to adjust). You can even send CTCSS and Two-Tone Sequential at the same time.
The tone board's 9 pin D-Sub connector can be used for easy hook-up to a transmitter for two-tone paging. All that is required is mic hi, mic gnd, PTT and the CommShop Paging Software (DOS) package. Cursor to the name of the person to be paged, hit Enter and the transmitter is keyed, the tones sent, and the mic held for voice messages. Each pager is easily programmed with the ability to send CTCSS along with the two-tone formats.
The tone board ships with both the Paging and Audio Generator (DOS) software. The paging software allows for easy setup of beepers and the person can be paged by selecting their name from a list; rather than having to remember numbers. Great product for in-house paging systems. PTT and audio can be connected to the 9-pin D-Sub connector on the board. Hook it right into a mic jack! Simple, effective, and competitive!
