Been using the pager for 48 hrs now and I am happy to say that it is acting normal. I still have no clue as to why the thing wont pick up anything in WB settings even on a WB system and only works in NB. I hope someone who knows more will chime in on this. I can only guess there is some problem with...

It has been some time since I posted last, but I wanted to share with you guys something I found on my MV pager and wanted to see what thoughts any of you have. I posted before that my pager would not receive in monitor at all ( Somewhat common problem with the MV ) and it would still go off if a ca...

I turned it on. its a drop down menu that says dis or id only.

Im useing CPS 2.3

northstarfire0693

I have tried to get mine to show the id in the top display with no luck. The radio is running firmware 6.41 with flash 000001-000000-9

Im not sure on what to try next

northstarfire0693

Big M is telling me that I have to pay a flat rate for it to be repaired....WTF

northstarfire0693

Mine does the same thing. I have no clue what the problem is

northstarfire0693

Great article. I know that there is a lot of caution about the advanced settings but .... My pager squelch is really 'tight' - ie it cuts out too early so it misses a lot of transmissions. I've tried getting the latest firmware (its currently 2 something) - but haven't found that yet. On the advanc...

northstarfire0693

I have the same problem. I wonder what the cost will be to fix ?

northstarfire0693

I need to send mine to the MSS. Can someone hook me up with the 800 number and give me a idea on what the cost would be

northstarfire0693

Bump,bump

Try 1 or 2 and see what happens... The higher the number, the tighter the squelch will be. -Marc Ok I know this is old. So if I am reading this right 1 is loose and 5 is tight ? I have also seen it go the other way around 5 lose and 1 tight. So what is the real deal with the setting or does it depe...

northstarfire0693

Is there a new firmware out yet or is it still 3.0 ? I cant find it on big M sight

northstarfire0693

Did they ever fix the problems with the amp charger ?

northstarfire0693

It has nothing to do with a jumper. Do a search on "Minitor V Engineering mode" You will find directions on how to change the PPS to get in engineering mode and set it to 2ch from there

northstarfire0693

Well I did everything that was shown here and when I try to open the file it wont work....What am I doing wrong ? Did you make sure to include .exe on the end of the file name when you saved it? sorry..... I did everything but that part.......Thought I did at first.....Talk about stupid....Now that...

northstarfire0693

Just thought I would put this out to see what people think

northstarfire0693

- Drop them... I fumble mine frequently. - Get them wet... not excessively, but mine's been moist more than once. - Press the reset button... I use mine all the time. I have one of the first M5s shipped to customers. No problem. - Wear them on the belt... every day, all day, frequently under bunker ...

northstarfire0693

That sounds good, a week.... I thought it would take longer to fix the pager...or do they just send you a nrw one ?

northstarfire0693

Sweet...ok....good thing its under warentary, how long is the turn around time at depot

northstarfire0693

Has anyone had any trouble with a MV loseing their reception, pager is 6 mo old.

northstarfire0693

Set your revert N for a longer time 10 sec or so. Mine also gets the white noise for a short time too but it will record the call.

northstarfire0693

tvsjr srry about the name screw up

northstarfire0693

Thanks for the info..... I guess that would be a bad thing cuz big /\/\ reads the stuff..... Tvgr ( I guess I got it right ) I was not lashing out on you..please dont take it that way..Thanks for you imput..

northstarfire0693

What kills me is that it is said it can be done on the v, but when you ask no one will tell you how. Is their a reason for that. Please share the info.

northstarfire0693

Thats a good question on the v... I would like to know how to do that

northstarfire0693

Ok I know this have been asked before and I did look around on some old post and their is not a firm answer on this so forgive me I am going to ask... Is their a way to program a Minitor V 1ch into a 2ch ( like the MIV) I guess their is a way to get into the engineer mode, but I dont know how to do ...

northstarfire0693

That sounds wierd....If it not the battery I would have it looked at by Motorola. I use a HT 1250 VHF here in Alaska and it works in temps from -20 down to -45 with no trouble.

northstarfire0693

We have two David Clark PTT that WILL work on M XTS 5000 and EFJ 5100 only problem is that you will have to disconnect from ICS then plug into the DC to talk on the radio. I can get you the model number when I get back to work on Monday

northstarfire0693

Have you checked the pins on the back where the battery goes. There could be a contact problem

northstarfire0693

Well if their is a way to turn a 1ch to a 2ch...fill us in.... I did not know you can get into engineer mode on the V PPS like you can the IV

northstarfire0693

Too bad no one can do the same to a Minitor V

northstarfire0693

Thanks for the help... my first time messing with a SV model.

I picked this pager up for a friend who needed it and now he quits the FD I have the pager for sale....Look in the FS area.

northstarfire0693

Ok thanks for the help... I was useing delayed N...Not to sure on how revert n works over the delayed one... Is their a way to have silent scan with pri f1

Thanks again

northstarfire0693

I have another question, What is silent scan do...??? I can not find any info on it in the book. What I am trying to do is set up my pager to scan 2 freq ( f1/f2 ) with 2 differnt tone sets I had it set to pri scan and it would act as if in open monitor. Here is my set up.. A Sel call F1 B Mon F1 C ...

northstarfire0693

I am sure this has been brought up one time or another, I have a stored voice MV and dispatch will drop the signal for a few seconds before going on with the dispatch. What setting do I need to use on the reset function so the SV will record the message...

Thanks...Sorry if this has been up before

northstarfire0693

My 1250 is 7 yrs old and the QC II worked very well for the most part. only prob that I found is that if their is a week signal or with a lot of static the radio will not decode. ( glad my MV will ) the tones I have used were 701.0/ 2100.0 and 802.5/ 547.5 I dont know how strong and clear you signal...

northstarfire0693

Just my little say in this....
On my county EFJ 5100 in digital P25 trunk mode I get 12-18 hrs of battery life. In analog mode I get 18-24 hrs.

Thanks for the info on the MV I was looking for feedback on the MIV, but thank you for your time.

northstarfire0693

I am looking into buying a m IV VHF. I did a little research and I am a bit confused.????? I have read good and bad about the pager. Can anyone give me some pros and cons on it and let me know what trouble they have and if I should buy it or not. Thanks for the help

northstarfire0693

Thanks I do not have a remote head on this unit. I have loaded up my HT 1250 with the cable with no trouble. The plug on the cable for the CDM is the one that goes where the mic is. I thought I read someware that you had to progran it from the back. I dont think thats true I should have the radio in...
