thats great to know, but we have a different problem now, it wont read. check out my 2nd post above for info

using a genuine motorola ribless 9pin serial cable.

i tried reading with ver 16 and it says.....

NEXGEN10 OTAP current CPS VER cant support this codeplug as it is not compatible with this ...

hi everyone,

i have a xts5000, i have ver 12 and the sw wont read because the radio was programmed with a newer ver. i was told that one of the newer versions will disable FPP, is this true? i have ver 16, but dont want to program the unit if it will take that function away.

any ideas to if this ...
