XTL 1500 Questions

Post by KK5FM »

If a person gets the "enhanced digital ID display" option in an XTL-1500, do you get "soft ID?" Will this radio do paging, and since it doesn't have a full keypad, is this off of a list stored in the radio? Can you put a DTMF mic on it and do paging direct without a list? And, on the accessory connector, can you hook up an additional mic and do channel steering for 1-4 channels?
I'm also assuming it has the general Motorola restriction of only 16 modes in a zone, but a guy can wish. Oh, wait, that wasn't in the form of a question: Can this radio do more than 16 modes in a zone? :)

Thank you.
