Options on AS3?

Post by dfc2 »

Can anyone tell me the options on the AS3's ( ID display, priority scan on an 800 mhz type 2 system... etc...) and if certian firmware revisions are needed for it?

If the AS3 is sent into the depot for repair...ie. display repaired.. will they upgrade the firmware?

thanks.

Yes they should upgrade the firmware if the radio is capable of higher host/dsp. The flashcode determines what options are in the radio and they will not change that without a large check from you.

I tak eit, that the only way to get the flash upgrade is to pay Moto lots of money?

I am not the orignal owner of the radio, but it's legit on our county system.

thanks

There are legit and not so legit ways. If you have an analog only radio though its tougher.
