Speaking for myself, I have never found the need to program my
71A with a computer since it seems to speak everything that I
need to program repeaters, offsets, and pl's. However, I would
like to know more about the remote mode whether you can program
that stand-alone, or do you need a computer connected to do that.

I think you have to purchase it and a separate cable.
I had a thf-6a from Kenwood once and I think the software came
with it. =
but I don't think that software is the same.
I may look into getting both the cable as well as the extra
software =
soon but the rig set me back quite a bit.
it would be nice to use it with the computer as well. as far as
access =
to the radios, we can use all the help we can get to program
them.

Hello Edward and welcome to this list. Many of us on this list
have the TMV-71A rigs with the VGS1 chip installed. I have owned
one for several years and other than the VGS1 chip blowing out
unexpectedly after a couple of years, I have been extremely happy
with that radio as well as the other Kenwood rigs I own. I am
very pleased with Kenwood's policy of making their rigs user
friendly with the addition of small speech boards and wish other
companies would adopt this same policy. It's worth noting that
several of the new inexpensive Chinese rigs also have speech
capabilities. Again, welcome to the list and best 73, Jim WA6EKS
