Codeplug Super Site ((link)) <2K | FHD>
Always before writing a file from this site to your radio. This allows you to restore the device if the new programming causes a crash. If you're looking for something specific, let me know: What model of radio are you programming? g., GMRS, Public Safety)?
Every amateur radio operator has a unique 7-digit DMR ID (e.g., 3101234). The Super Site codeplug will likely have a placeholder or the author's ID. You go into the "General Settings" or "Radio Contacts" and change the "Radio ID" to your own. Failure to do this will cause you to "talk over" the author on the network (known as a "ping-pong" conflict).
A codeplug is the binary configuration file loaded into a two-way radio's memory. It defines all operational parameters: codeplug super site
Due to copyright restrictions (Motorola and Kenwood often claim ownership of the CPS software structure, though not the codeplug data itself), these sites move frequently. As of 2024-2025, the most reliable sources are:
Before we dive into the Super Site itself, let’s address the "Purist Argument." Some hams insist you must build a codeplug manually. While that is educational, it is also incredibly tedious. A single Motorola XPR 7550e can hold 1,000 channels. Programming 200 repeaters manually across a state can take 20+ hours and introduces a high risk of typos in frequencies or color codes. Always before writing a file from this site to your radio
The term "Codeplug Super Site" refers to a curated, centralized online repository—or a specific URL often passed around in radio clubs—that aggregates hundreds of pre-written codeplugs for various radio models. While the most famous iteration was hosted by a dedicated amateur radio operator in the Midwest (often mirroring the now-defunct "Hamfiles" repository), the concept has evolved. Today, a "Super Site" is defined by three key features:
The codeplug should have these pre-assigned to a "Rotary Knob" or "Zone" for intuitive use. You go into the "General Settings" or "Radio
Building a codeplug from zero is a meticulous process that can take hours or even days. This is why the Codeplug Super Site became such a pivotal resource.
Whether you are a storm chaser needing immediate access to Skywarn frequencies, a volunteer firefighter programming a secondary radio, or a new ham confused by DMR timeslots, the is your best friend.
