I was at a regional sales meeting in CT over the summer. I asked the question direct to an XPR 5500 manager. He quickly changed topics and that was the end of it. I have been told by an engineer that it probably will not happen due to the Bluetooth, they have fear of signal issues if the radio is re...

Hello, What I am trying to accomplish is use a lowband Desktrac (33.70) and link via a rick or other controller to a CDM750 VHF. The desktrac currently has a Zentron Paging encoder attached to it but this could be moved to the accesory 20 pin connector on the RICK correct? Basically what I would nee...

The way I read it Pin 9 drives the Busy LED and the Squelch Knob. If I tap into that and put it to pin 2 on the programing jack I should have everything correct? Also would this work because the radio is a low band with the squelch knob and all channels are carrier squelch.

Go to Repeater Builder and download the Maratrac service manual. Mic audio, PTT, ground, and handset audio/RX audio can be pulled off the interconnect board. You can use the busy light line as an active-high COR, or since the radio runs off a normal 5-pin Maxtrac logic board you can derive active l...

Hello all I was contacted today about a project requesting a lowband Maratrac to be cross banded with a CDM1550 VHF using a rick type interface. The person I normally (kurt@MRE) buy the repeater interfaces through says that this can not be done. He said the the Maratrac does not have carier detect i...

Looks great thank you!! Now the Maps I have seen are one color I don’t want to sound like a total idiot but the Green Area is just about 100% coverage correct?

Ok it is going to be brand new units on an existing tower. I would guess maybe 1 DB loss for the cross. Mobiles will be CDM1250 Lowband at 60 Watts with the standard spectrum antenna. CDM1550 LS for VHF at 45 Watts with 3 DB Gain antennas. Hope that helps. Thanks for trying for me.

Hello I am new to doing Radio Coverage Maps I was wondering if some one could do a few for me. This will be for a cross band repeater system 33.70 and 150s range Antenna Location is Lat 42.105 Long -78.39 Antenna Hight is 68 M above ground Tranmit power will be 100 Watts both sides 5.5 DB gain Dipol...

It is still available it is $450 from IDA (dealer price) and then you need the following parts from Motorola: CDM 1250 Kit: (1) GCN6113B = CDM1250 HEAD (1) AARMN4025B = MICROPHONE (1) RLN4802A = REMOTE HEAD KIT FOR 1250 OR 1550 (same for both models ) (1) RLN5993A = REMOTE HEAD COVER (1) 0764275B01 ...

Does anyone have a lowband antenna cutting chart for the HT series. The one I am looking for specifies the difference when using a remote speaker mic and not.

Hello I need help with a CDM 1250 and using a TPL Mobile amp with the bypass relay. How do I controll the bypass relay from the radio. I would assume it is from the 20 pin connector on the back but what pin and what do i program the pin to?

Well went in with laptop and keylogger...... key logger failed....... Radio was programed and because he did not know how to enable password on an ICOM he set it to data out inhibit :/ So the next plan of action is take the new HT-1250 there let him program that then read it using cracked software.

His software is ligit he is a Moto shop and its an Icom radio Radio requirements are VHF Narrowband and DTMF or MDC capable Its funny the "group recomended radios" are pro series radios which he sells way over priced. I would just say screw it and walk away from it but is is used greatly i...

Yes they are public record but what about the PL/DPLs and no i have not let him use the laptop and software yet.................

I would love to do that but I dont know how on the Icom that i use with them now.

Also radios can be department owned or privated owned same rules applied like I said mine are all owned by me.

Also to pur salt in the wound he asked if he could use my software and cable because he does not have it for that model.

Its a group of fire deprtments and EMS agencies that use these repeaters on VHF and a VHF low to VHF cross band repeater the county is on VHF low.

The guy who is the only employee of this shop is high up in the organization and also a fire chief.

I figured i would ask here before legal consult.

Ok here is the situation I own my radios and have licensed software to program them. One of many departments I am with bought into a group that has multiple repeaters and op freqs. licensed. The group requires all radios be programed at a local shop (@ $40 a pop) and only that shop. When you get you...

I would like that and G-star and Fleetsync

Has anyone developed a computer based multiformat ANI decoder that will work through the sound card of a PC??

Had the same issue using 6.10.04 on 64 bit vista not caused by serial convert just software does not support OS

The county I am in uses Desktrac base/reapter units at all stations. These rebroadcast the departments tones after the county sends them out. Many of the rebroadcasted tones have some sort of siren tone after them that is broadcasted. How is this programed and is there any way to acomplish this with...

What we have done alot for those and HT's is to have a dispatch channel and the a PAGER channel where the pager channel does just what it says also some have auto rest or some will beep until PTT is pressed. Many different alert tones and alot louder than a Minitor.

First question is I have gotten a PR400 that the original shop that programed is no longer open the customer wants the current channels but also wants a few more added the CPS has a password is there any way to crack this?

Second question Will a Motorola Radius Low Band do MDC-1200 encoding?

would a 120MHZ laptop running dos 6.2 work for a Radius M206 or 208 ?
