Firmware upgrade XTS5000/2500

Post by rustynswrail »

Probably a silly question, but...

When an XTS5000's firmware is upgraded with version 12, it provides 1000 channels.

Now the silly question, if an XTS2500's firmware is upgraded with version 12, do you get 1000 channels or are two radios not that much alike?

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.
