the release notes should tell you what changed. I haven't DL it yet myself to read it.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

New firmware R08.07.00 also coming soon, by the looks.

https://businessonline.motorola.com/DOC ... Readme.pdf

In short: No major changes. The "listen only" talkgroups idea is interesting. I assume the radio still affiliates, but it's prevented from initiating calls on a talkgroup.

Code: Select all


What's New in the CPS:
=====================
- Private Line Tone & Multiple Private Line (MPL) Tone on DIRECT Simplex 
Channels
  This feature adds support for Private Line (PL) tones on direct simplex 
channels and 
  increases the number of programmable PL tones.
- Display Radio Alias ID on Mobiles
  This feature allows the user to view/read their Radio Alias ID from a 
mobile 
  equipped with the O9, O5, or O3 control head. 
- Midtier Channel Increase
  This enhancement increases APX Conv Channel Options / Pers and Maximum 
Number of 
  programmable modes (Channels) to 1000.   
- Listen Only Talkgroup
  The CPS can now identify a talkgroup as 'listen only', thereby allowing a 
trunked 
  radio system to program talkgroups that are 'listen only.' 
- Radio Alias ID Special Characters
  This feature allows a radio to utilize special characters when creating 
radio 
  alias IDs.  Characters such as !@#$%^&*() are now allowed.
- CPS support for the Ultra Low Power SRX 2200 UHF R1 FM 
  This feature will be fully supported with the release of the Ultra Low 
power radio 
  in a future release.
