Hi All,

modulation for microphone? Now i get a report for very throaty/deep modulation and it's realy screechy to listen,thanks to all Ivica!

This isn't the place (and I haven't the time) for a complete primer on programming via the "MTSX Metaphor" (which applies to the AstroM RSS), but here's the short course:

First, program a "conventional personality" for each channel you want to use. This is where the freq, signalling, associated scan list, and other parameters go.

Second, program a "zone" for each group of channels to be accessed by the "mode" selector. Each entry in the "zone" contains the alphanumeric display text plus a pointer to the conventional "personality" invoked by that slot in the zone.

Third: program the buttons and menu items. If there is more than one zone, you'll need a menu item for changing zones or buttons for "zone up" and "zone down".

Just what are you trying to change on the TX modulation?

What is a deep and understanding modulation report? What is wrong with that?

If you don't have a deviation meter, you had better leave well enough alone until you have one.

You are pretty hard to understand, I am guessing English is not your primary language. Jim Already pretty much answered your question here.

This is commercial equipment you are trying to work with here, my first suggestion is buy a copy of the service manual from Motorola. That would at least point you in the right direction and probably would be easier for you to translate as it is a technical manual written as such.
