So I have an APX8000 that came in today for problems. The radio does not have any speaker audio at all and the backlight does not come on and also noticed the LED on top does not work. When I place the radio into service mode the backlight comes on and LED works but still no speaker audio. Changed o...

Ok tried that but it is still just a bunch of JUNK with the info I need mixed in every 4th line. Such a pain but I need to get 74 zones and build a Harris XL200P

BigTex1136

I know there is a way to do this but I can't seem to remember how. What I need to do is Export my Conventional Pers from APX CPS and make a channel list so I can build 2 Harris Portables for a customer. I did this last year but can't remember how. I exported the data to an XTML file now how to I mak...

OK so here is something new. I run a GeTac B300 with Astro 25 Mobile and use OEM Moto USB Programming cable and when I plug the cable into the mobile it turns off and restarts over and over. Any ideas? So I also saw this the other day on a PM1500 as well. I tried another control head from the shop a...

So I have a VHF APX6000 with limited keypad, how hard would it be to add the full keypad to this radio? If I order new case and the rubber keypad will I need to order anything else?

BigTex1136

I want to upgrade my PM1500 to an XTL2500 or 5000. My question is can it become an XTL2500 only or can I make it a 5000? Thanks

BigTex1136

I have a CDM1250 dash mount that is giving me some issues. The control head fell off the radio and the flex cable was damaged. I replaced the flex cable with a new one and when you put the radio back together and power up it just gives you the power up beep over and over. No display or lights just t...

BigTex1136

So I am thinking about maybe upgrading my APX7k to a full Model 3 with front display and keypad. First can this be done??? 2nd What parts will I need to order. I am sure someone here as done this and maybe can share some some info. Feel free to PM me if you like. This is only an idea at this point. ...

I tried a different mic no change. I will check the volts on Monday. Thanks

BigTex1136

It's not the TOT checked that. Tried changing it as well no difference.

BigTex1136

Came across a fun one. I have a PM1500 VHF 110 watt unit that will only TX for 3 sec or so they will dekey. You can PTT right away for another 3 sec and then it stops. No fail code. I checked the coax, antenna, ground, and even the programming. I can not figure this one out. Has anyone seen this bef...

BigTex1136

OK I have heard and seen the poor performance out of these oil filter antennas but out of the mix I have 1 Antenex Phantom that blows a 1/4 wave out of the water. Yes my 3db gain whip works the best but this one Antenex Phantom works very well for what it is. I was very surprised and am still very p...

LoL My charger for my XTS5000. The KNG Mobiles work so much better than the MOTO mobiles and the KNG portables as well. I am finding myself using less and less Moto crap everyday.

Can these still be Upgraded or does someone here on the board have a way to upgrade this?

I have my KVL3000 Model #T5795A
It will do DES-XL & OFB

I would like to get it upgraded to do everything if there is still a way.

Thanks

BigTex1136

I have done more then I car to admit. LOL they really are not to bad you just have to take your time

BigTex1136

Wow I feel stupid now. Thanks guys. So I did not even try to read the radios before posting this. So I was able to read the radio just fine. It has all kinds of stuff in them. So for fun I just it write and the radio just came back to life. So now my next question is what on earth made them do this?...

BigTex1136

I ended up with 5 Ht1250 UHF LS radios. All 5 will not power on. When you turn them on the green LED will flash once very quick but nothing happens. I am guessing they all have blown internal fuses. :x So does anyone want to give me some repair costs for this or am I better off robbing parts off the...

Hi guys and Happy New Year!!! So I am looking to link two repeaters. I know there are many ways of doing this but here is how I want to link and not sure what is needed to make this work. Repeater 1 has its own freq. TX 155.100 and RX 158.100 I want repeater 2 to hear rpt 1 and at the same time TX o...

BigTex1136

That's what I needed. Thanks guys.

BigTex1136

How do you put this radio in bootstrap mode

BigTex1136

Is there a way to get a XTL5000 or CDM1250 to decode multiple quick call tones on one channel much like the Minitor Pagers? I know I can make different channels with different QC tone but not a channel with multiple tones. Thanks Guys

BigTex1136

I found that in the scan also. Thanks Dorf

BigTex1136

Thanks tvsjr. I knew it had to be some place in there.

Jim, its not my truck, not my install, and they not going to pay me to fix the local M shop installs. But since I do have to add some new channels why not fix it the easy way.

BigTex1136

Is there a way in the CPS to turn off the off hook monitor on these radios? I looked all over and could not seem to find it. I have more then a few trucks without grounded mic clips and the monitor stays on all the time. Thanks

BigTex1136

I drill drill drill and then cap when I am done. No one ever knows and who looks at the roof of an SUV. I have never been dinged for having an antenna or a cap where an antenna was.

BigTex1136

Thanks for the input. I don't have any issues all around. I know the back antenna is not 100% but works well. You see it all the time. As for the network cable on the CDM it works great. I have never had any problems. Its 15ft long and works great.

BigTex1136

LoL yeah its them.

BigTex1136

I know its not Moto, but I could use some programing help and I'm sure there are some ICOM people here. So what I have are a few F5061 VHF mobiles. I see they will do just about anything MDC. I have set up all our portable radios with MDC and each man number for who has that radio. I have also turne...

The permanent multi select is what I was thinking. Really would like dispatch to come across on all the repeater sites. The real issue is personal is just lazy and this should fix that. How hard is the permanent multi-select to do? Just a matter of reprogram the console? What about the repeater site...

BigTex1136

Roof is also done. The front antenna (Coke Can) is tac radio CDM1250, 2nd is 800mhz, 3rd is for the main radio the Motorola MCS2000 in the back. I was told by many people they were not happy with the coke can antenna there in the dront. I will say I tried it out for a bit on the main radio and yes I...

BigTex1136

Dispatch is the problem both lazy and they dont care. Not what console they are using but ill check. They can see clear as day what repeater we are using they just dont care enough to move there finger up to push that repeater. So and fd would split the bill as its the same problem for them and coun...

BigTex1136

Thanks I will check it out. The problem we have is Dispatch switching to the right repeater from there console so guys like me in the far south of the county can't hear the main repeater. Case in point yester day we had an MVA dispatch toned out 4 fire districts to go but only used county main repea...

BigTex1136

OK so our county FD and SO we have 3 repeater sites in the county and they all TX and RE the same with each having there own TX PL tone and the same RE PL Tone for all 3. They are linked to dispatch but then who ever is dispatching has to change to the right repeater so we can hear them. It really d...

BigTex1136

Well I have been busy as hell but I got everything installed and done for now. Here are the pics of the radios that are installed under the back seat.
