"Read" the current configuration from the radio for editing or start from scratch in a new file.
The programmer has copy and paste of memory channel information between files.
Column editing for changing several channels with minimal typing.
An easy interface to Internet based data to get repeater information for your location, a travel route, or a vacation spot. Repeater details available for locations in and outside the US. (separate purchase or subscription may be required)
Other built-in frequency lists for easy memory channel entries (check File|External data in the programmer before you spend time on internet searches for frequencies. You may find just what you need!)

Easier than trying to figure out front panel/mic p
I found the radio manual minimally useful. Front panel or mic button programming can be difficult. The RT spreadsheet makes it easy to set TX offset, CTSS, power and channel name. RT USB cable works very reliably on my Win 10 computer.

Wish I'd Tried This Sooner
Programming on the TYT TH-8600 with the provided software is nightmarish. All manual data entry, quirky behavior (fields change themselves), and worst of all, you can't sort or order anything once its entered. The RT software solved all of that and imported data directly from Repeater Book. There are a couple of minor bugs that require some tweaks via the front panel controls after pushing the plug to the radio, but considering Chinese manufacturers routinely make undocumented changes on software/firmware on a regular basis, I can't blame RT for those, and they're working on a solution. Great customer support, too. A real live person answers the phone. I spoke to Dominic who was helpful, knowledgeable, and patient. Next radio I buy, I'm ordering the RT software at the same time.

Disk from hell.....
I've used RT products before an know they are a quality product. I bought a disk for my new TYT TH-8600 so I could make changes as necessary. The issue began with an error message which occurred during the install. Something about inserting disk 1.... Called tech support. Nice lady says go to the website and download the patch. Ok, downloaded. Noticed the CD was taking forever to load. Thought the drive was going bad (?) so I tried to install on a laptop. Same difference. Another call to tech support. The guy says after some back and forth that the disk is probably bad and will send another. In the meantime, I can down load from the site using my key and get going. Success! Radio is happy and I'm better after two hours of install hell. Admin log of computer confirmed a bad sector on the CD. So, It looks like there needs to be some QC @ RT.

RT Systems programmers work with the radio specified from the manufacturer shown in the description.
No implication is made that a programmer is appropriate for a radio with a similar number from a different manufacturer. Actually, purchasing a programmer for a radio from a different manufacturer just because it has a similar number is strongly discouraged.
RT Systems takes no responsibility for the performance of your radio should you choose to use a programmer other than that listed specifically for the manufacturer and model of that radio you are attempting to program. Exceptions are noted in the description for several products. Check there if you feel your radio is a variant of the one shown, but be advised that the manufacturer will never vary. If the model is not listed, you should check with RT Systems prior to your purchase.
Installed software is NOT returnable, exchangeable or returnable.
