Hello.
I have a Motorola GM1200 (MCS2000), which is a trunking version and only supports 10 conventional channels. Is there a way to convert the radio/firmware to conventional in terms to achieve more conventional channels?

Regards, Erik

Yes it´s possible!
Create a native codeplug with the MT2100
RSS for your model.Dump it to disk and
rename to default .ds
Load it via MTSX-LAB(read/write with nopack/unpack and write to radio).
Now the radio gives an error No.2.
Don´t recognize it.
Connect the the GM/GP1200 via
modified RIB(the modification will appear
the next days on a friend´s homepage)to
PC.Run the 2100 series flashtool
(flashtool for "skywalker radios")and
flash the radio.Retune the radio after flashing.
