Radio Programming per Radio | 1–5 Channels | Harris Race Radios™

Programming for a radio you already own or are buying from us

This is a programming service only; no radio is included in this listing. We can program a suitable selection of 1–5 channels on one compatible radio you already own or on a compatible radio you are purchasing from Harris Race Radios™. The channel selection depends on the radio’s exact make and model, supported channel plan and intended use. The charge is per radio, not per channel.

Compatible radio models

We program compatible, programmable models from Motorola, Kenwood, Rugged Radios and other brands where supported. Share the exact make and model so compatibility can be checked before ordering. A VHF-only radio cannot be programmed for UHF CB, and U.S.-only channel plans are not programmed for NZ or Australian UHF CB use.

UHF CB channels are shared, not private. Harris Race Radios™ can also help with private-channel programming for suitable radios where the required authorisation is in place. Some compatible Motorola and Kenwood models can monitor UHF race-management channels; monitoring is UHF-only and model-dependent.

Compare programming options

For a larger channel selection on a compatible radio, compare the 6–15 channel, 16–25 channel and 26–35 channel programming tiers. For NZ/AU UHF CB, see the 80-channel UHF CB programming service. Browse the Radio Programming collection.
