Cloning the Motorola GP300 with another GP300

lalaland · Post by **lalaland** » Wed Dec 21, 2005 7:32 am

Is it possible to get a cable to clone a GP300 to another GP300 without the use of a computer?

I am looking for a solution that can be taken along with the radio to a site, plugged in to a site radio and in to my radio and then copy the settings from the site radio to mine without the need for a computer etc.

Is this possible and if so can someone run me through it or point me in the right direction please?

Thanks

i've never seen a cloning cable for the 300's and never heard of anyone doing it.

I've seen cables that do it, but not sure if you can do it without a computer.

Ah well, looks like it's too possible then.

Just got this back from a supplier in the US

We have been checking on your request with Motorola. There is no such thing that exists. You have to have a computer to do anything when it comes to cloning and programming. We are sorry that we can not be of any help to you regarding this matter. Thank you for your inquiry and have a Safe and Happy Holiday Season.

Yup, HKN9755 Gp300 smart cloning cable... They do exist, I have one sitting right in front of me.

It looks just like a regular GP300 programming cable, and can be used as one as well, but also has a "smart"circut that allows the codeplug to be stored in the programming jig while the host radio is swapped with the target radio.

I have this one NOS, in the Motorola box, with the original instructions that I really don't need. make me a reasonable offer if you are interested.

Discovered earlier that this will only work with same year and same model letterd GP300 units.

This is a shame because I can't garauntee mine are the same as the site's radios.

Same thing applies on my GTX radios, which are 900 mHz cousins of the GP300, They will not clone unless the radios are the exact same model. But when it
works it's great; zip-zip-zip and it's done.
