XTL 5000 O5 with only 1 line display

Post by 123 »

Problem:

Radio did have the normal 2 line 24 character display, and now it has 1 line 14 character and alternates between the zone and the channel tagging when it was programmed with CPS R13.00.01

The only time it goes back to 2 line display is when I am in the middle of switching zones.

Radio firmware 12.00.10


Anyone know how to fix this?

FW bump may possibly do it, 12.00.18 is the latest I believe. Or new(er) CPS.

Lance: What?
Kilgore: Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like that.
Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
