Regarding the newest update. I received a brand new TYT MD-9600 from a
local ham radio shop before the weekend. The radio came with the latest
software installed. I wasted the entire weekend trying to make it work. I
have a lot of Chinese radios of wich all work flawless. This one
however, has been a pain.
Firs, none of my two computers would
recognize the programming cable (normally detected after the radio is
connected). I spent one day deleting and reconnecting and trying every
possible way to make it work. In the end it started working.
Second.
The supplied CD contained all possible TYT software for older models
EXCEPT from MD-9600. I had to go online and download it.
Third.
When programmed, I noticed that of the four programmable buttons in the
front, only P1 and P4 worked. The two in the middle just cannot be
programmed, even if i do it through the software. Tried million times.
Fourth.
I programmed two zones into the radio. The channels in the zones are
not visible nowhere. I have made a scan list, but when activating scan,
it scans only the entire frequency band. No way I may get it to scan
channels. (Maybe this is me not understanding how to use it, but I do
not think so).
Fift. Sound issue. A VERY loud "pop"/"Scratch"
sound comes out of the loudspeker every time I press a button. The sound
is so loud it damages the hearing. I disabled tones for the buttons and
the problem was gone. But it is not supposed to be like this.
Sixth.
I tried to upload a BMP to the startup screen with no luck. I made it
in the desired size and format, but there was no way to upload it. The
software told me it had to be in the right size and bitsize, but all was
correct. Still no result.

Overview Summary - Operation
The MD-9600 was specifically designed with the amateur radio operator in mind. I've been putting mine through its paces for just over a week with excellent results. There's plenty of power for a mobile installation with a heavy duty heat sink and fan to keep the radio cool. If you are currently using a TYT MD-2017 handheld, great news. You can use your existing code plug to get the 9600 on the air. So, let's take a look at the radio itself.

MD-9600 software and firmware update
Hi All, I just received my 9600 and can safely say this video will not
work. TYT determined there was a problem that required a firmware update
before loading a converted code plug. The format is different. At this
date (9/6/17) the contacts can be reorganized in a spread sheet to
convert them to be used in the 9600 but I have not yet resolved the
transition of channels to the 9600 format. I'll include the transition
process for the contacts in my next video which should be posted soon.
