Don't you think there might be a few parts that need to be changed as well?

i'm shure there is a way to force it to be any band but it won't work without alot of internal modification

take off the case, remove all UHF electronics, replace with the electronics from a VHF radio, re-power... about the only way easily feasible to make the modification...

you would need to do some serious modifications...

Forget that. I thought it would be easier to do than that.

Never mind!

Since the Pro series utilizes a uni-board, it would make life alot easier to just get a VHF board, or a whole differrent radio.. Can't just swap out the RF section and blow a plug in like you can with others...

Stupidity creates job security!

If your radio has old firmware, programming it with the latest CPS will not add any new features unless you have the latest firmware to match..

CPS = Customer Programming Software, Not CPS Software.
