I'm pretty certain that it is a standard MT2000 controller. If there is a micro DIP socket that's white, that would be for an encryption board, which should mean that the controller is from an MTS. The single intel flash chip is used in several controllers including the MT2000 and MTX. The controller is not flashable by any "normal" means or at least any that I'm aware of (I've been researching that one for years now). The flashable MTS controllers (I think) have two intel flash chips on them.

I'm not sure what info you're looking for. It looked like you posted a Cowthief style comment (no offense).

I have an MTS2K and for some reason it doesn't show a flashcode when put into service mode, however it does show in the RSS that it has H38 pkg. and is flashport capable.

I have a pic of the controller I just can't post it. It does have 2 intel chips on it that say flash and TE28F020-140V05 on them, is that the way I can tell it is indeed an MTS2K?

What radios do you own?: APX

If the radio has firmware in the low to mid 5's, like R05.30 or R05.62, the flashcode wont show up in service mode. I have had a few like this, and after a firmware upgrade into the high 6's, it shows up. So I would definatly say that has to do with the Jedi firmware.
