clonIng radIo settIngs
Any “Master” radio (a portable radio with the desired radio frequencies
and settings) is capable of transferring its program to another BK Radio
or “slave” radio. The radio receiving the program is referred to as the
“clone.” The LAA0700 or G/ECC cloning cable will be required in the
following procedure.
When using the G/ECC to clone like type radio models, the end marked
“G/D” should be connected to Master radio. When cloning between older
and newer radio types match the labels with the radio models. (See
“Radio Compatibility” charts for more information.)
NOTE: Some groups may be “locked” by PC programming to prevent
them from being overwritten. Only “unlocked” groups will accept
incoming clones.
What clones
Information programmed in the selected group of a Master radio will be
cloned to the Slave radio.
When cloning between radio types, the Slave radio will ignore
information it does not use as channel or group information.
For instance, when using a DPH as the Master and a GPH-CMD as
the Slave, information such as mode setting will be ignored since the
GPH-CMD does not have digital operating ability.
Also when a Slave radio has more channels per group than the Master
radio, the extra channels will not be changed.

1. Make sure the battery packs for both
radios are charged.

cloning cable to the side connector of the
Master radio.
NOTE: One plug of the cloning cable has a
push-button master switch. This plug must
be attached to the Master radio.
3. Turn on the Master radio.
4. Select the group to be cloned from the
Master radio.
