I am going to ask a question here, I was told the system for setting all this up works ONLY on 700/800 MHz systems and will NOT work on VHF trunked? Anyone got this to work on a VHF trunked system running 9600kb CC to be able to listen to the system?

Thanks

Was looking around and saw this on ebay: Flashcode: 560018-00178C-4 Q806 ASTRO Digital Operation H14 Enhanced Digital ID Display Q52 Federal Government FPP H869 Hardware Multikey Encryption Q883 3600/9600 Interoperability H38 SMARTZONE Systems Operation Q947 APCO Packet Data Interface Q53 FCC FPP An...

Ok what I have for this one radio is this: 120001-000100-4 Which according to the website for flashcode decoding is: D12 B1 Q806 Q806 ASTRO Digital Operation D11 B2 Q52 Q52 Federal Government FPP D7 B1 H35 H35 Conventional Systems Operation D3 B1 Q53 Q53 FCC FPP And Radio Cloning Hope that helps. Th...

Thanks for the information, I just wanted to make sure that I was doing things right. I am using the XTS2500 for Ham frequencies right now and I have heard that if you read it with the higher versions of the CPS you loose the FPP options. Don't know if that's true or not so if there is anyone that c...

Morning, I have a XTS2500 with FPP options installed but have never played around with it till now. But my question is once you get all the information programmed into it with RX/TX and PL/DPL is there a way to save this information into a memory location? That way you don't have program it all over...

Had not thought of that but will give it a shot and see what I can do!
Thanks

Morning, Been searching the lists with no luck so I am hoping that someone can answer this for me. We have a few CP200 that we want to program for local monitor of the system with QCII but in the drop down menu for the setting its not listed Call W/Voice just call alert? Is there something that need...

Morning,
I was informed that a JT1000 (full keypad) could be used for FPP. I have done some research and I guess its some sort of mic port adapter that does this? or can it be done through the software?
Thanks

Was looking through the page to help decode flashcodes for a XTS3000 VHF with a flash code 580008-00000-3 Firmware 7.00.02.00
DSP N07.03.06 but its not coming up with anything. Is there an error on the page or is this flashcode invalid?
Help please?

Thanks

Ok yeah I threw one of the mics on it with a channel selector knob on it as well and it did the same thing. So I will not worry abut the beep. Thanks for the information on that though.

We are using the XTS5000 mics (RMN5023BSP01) that have the controls on them for volume and man-down. My question is when the radio is powered on the radio goes through self check and emits a beep and then a few seconds later the mic does the same thing. Is this some sort of self test for the mic? I ...

Ok thanks I will have to do that and see if it can be brought down into the 10M range.

Sorry about that I meant 28MHz not 27 hit the wrong key. Was wanting to drop it down to play around on 10M ham band for some experimenting.

Morning,
I was told that you could drop a CDM1250 down to 27MHz but have yet to see this done. I would think that the PLL would not lock up down that low and that you would have to realign the radio TX side to be able to do this. Anyone have any information on this?

Actually it was my XTS2500 that was decoding the QCII tones the XTS5000 will not do this, happens when you have two radios that look so much alike. I will have to send the 5000 in for updating so it will do QCII encode and decode. The 2500 is what I carry for work and the 5000 is sitting on the test...

Question on this method, are you using just the main CC or are you adding in alternates? I have main CC added in but was curious as to if the alternate needed to be added in as well as I am assuming that the alternate CC is backup. Another question is can you have multiple CC for different sites ent...

Morning, I was trying to find some information on sending in a Astro Spectra to be flashed and wanted to know if the radio can be flashed with the same features as my XTS5000 but have not found a lot of information on it. Model is T99DX+099W and ID when read is T04KLH9PW9AN. I want to be able to hav...

Morning, I have been reading some posts about the QCII encoding and I seem to be missing something in the software. Radio is programmed for QCII but programming the top purple button for call I get a screen that says ID with four dashes in it. The channel is set up for QCII and it will decode correc...

Yeah unfortunately the system was set up by the lowest bidder. So it was set up to accommodate multiple talkgroups for each department to be able to avoid multiple traffic but I am guessing that from what they had in the past was one repeater for the main group and a second channel on the output wit...

Thats the problem of this system is I got thrown into this as the system owner and now have to make sure this all works. I am getting on the job training for all of this and that fact I am not happy about. I have never dealt with a trunked system before and am having to learn very fast to make it al...

Morning, The XTS5000 that I am trying to add talkgroups into is model H18KEF9PW6AN flashcode 500008-000482-8 I need to add some talkgroups into the system and still learning about the CPS software so I thought I would ask before getting in over my head. The radio has a system key and system ID and t...

I knew I had forgot to check something in the software PTT ID and it started to right away. Hate it when I forget to check the right box.

Thanks

Got a XTS5000 that I need to get MDC1200 on Ver R07.00.00 Flashcode 500008-000482-8 I need to have the MDC1200 at EOT but must have missed something as its not TXing the signal when the PTT is released. What am I missing in the software? I have it set for trailing PTT and the ID set up in the CPS. T...

Ok so what are the VDOT Channels?

Do you have a part number for the one I need? Let me know.
Thanks

I am going to take a guess here but I am betting you have to have it re-flashed to something different for remove the FPP. Correct me if I am wrong.

I have a Motorola Astro Digital Mobile, model number D04KK9PW4AN and the programing cable HKN6155A. I cant get it to read the radio for some reason. am I using the wrong cable for this? I have checked settings for the right com port in the program and its not reading it. Plugged directly into the se...

They are a Impress battery Li-Ion 4150MAh battery from Motorola. The new system is VHF Trunked 9600Kb CC and three towers in the coverage area. They were received three months ago from the date on the invoice. So how do you figure out the date code? If I could do that I might be able to find the dat...

Well after pulling the right invoice for the batteries purchased (this happens when you don't get enough sleep) what we have are the NNTN6034A which is a 4151Mah battery and they are being used in the Impress chargers so they are being cycled through when needed. I am thinking that the fact we have ...

Sorry part number is NTN8294 for the batteries and I will have to grab the date codes off them when I get into the office. Use is per shift (12 hours max) most of the shifts are 8 hours. We have three different sites around Cheyenne so I am not sure if they are afilitating between sites but I am goi...

This might not be the right list for this and the moderators can move this if they need to. I did a search of battery use on the APCO-25 VHF (9600kb) system and our new trunked system but could not find any information. What we have is the 2100MAh batteries and they are not lasting a whole shift for...

Thanks tom, I was curious after dissecting one if the rubber holder for the mic had anything to do with it? I am just reaching here but we had all kinds of problems with ours and then decided to get rid of them for just a standard mic.

Does cycling the power on the radio cause it to re-affiliate with the system? I was doing some reading here and we are having the same problem with it not un-muting for a few seconds and the local tech's told us to cycle the power on the radio. I am not sure if they are just pulling answers out of t...

Thanks for the tip I will have to try that with our mics here and see if that does not work to relieve the problem of low audio.

Could this be with a different radio set? Is there a series of radios for the P1225 in serial number or the like that will do the narrow band? If I can get them down to the new standard we can use them instead of getting CP200 to replace them.

I could not get the 1225 that we use at work to go any lower than 12.5Kh for the spacing. If anyone has any other suggestions that would be great.

If the DPL is not in the drop down list it wont let you enter it. I have a few that I tried to do this with and it didn't work.

Have a Astro Saber that I need some information on getting the right part # from MOL on programming for:
model number H01KCH9PW7AN its VHF. I need to know whats the part number of the software and the most current version so I can get this thing programmed.
Thanks

What band are you using this for? I might be able to come up with a good code plug for you.
Thanks

Standard muting or unmuting can be set several different ways in the CPS it can be set to standard, AND, OR just depends on what you want the radio to do. If your setting it to scan and you have a priority channel marked that it seeks your lookback time might be to long. Scanning all 16 channels and...

I think the GM300 can be changed to have the pins changed on pins will have to boot the old DOS machine to make sure.

I dont recommend running the GM300 full out on TX either as they are not designed to be a full duty repeater. We have one for my work and they are turned down to 15W and then bumped up to a full 30W with the antenna to avoid burning out the finals in the rigs. This might help a bit as well: 1. First...

We ran across the same problem with the PSM that we had for the HT1550's that we use and did away with the PS and went with a standard mic instead. The VHF PSM are not very good at getting good audio out of them and yes they are VERY directional as the mic sits back in a rubber gasket well behind th...

Have you tried playing around with the non-standard reverse burst to see if that works? I have mine turned on for TX channels and turned off for my RX only channels in my radio and that seems to work well. Might start there and see how that does.

Oh the cable is already made for programming, I need the cable for connecting to the SVR-200 and the CDM1550 that I am going to use. Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks

Thanks Josh, I will program for PL only then. Got a cable on order and will see what I can do.

Morning, I have a SVR-200 that I need to program but it seems like there is no place to program DPL in the system for this unit. I was under the impression that the SVR-200 could do BOTH PL and DPL. This is for a remote link that is being installed in the truck along with a CDM1550. Any suggestions ...

OK I got a little lost in that post, but let me see if I got this straight. Program your control channel in conventional and your talk groups in the trunking system for scanning? I don't have a lot of talkgroups as our system is going to be just a few agencies in the local area. I am using a XTS5000...

OK that makes sense, have you played around with a non-standard reverse burst? That might be part of it. And do you have the MDC1200 signaling turned on? Try the reverse burst first and see if you have the MDC1200 on as well. Audio settings for me in the advanced tab are: Non-Standard Reverse Burst ...

So was anyone able to see if they could get the scan to work on a VHF system? Still new at programming XTS radios for the moment and added in a XTS5000 to the mix of radios now. I take it you can set the radio for conventional and scan talkgroups for each site with no problem? I read the post and it...
