GM300 8 channel questions

[Josh]

I have an 8 channel VHF Radius GM300 radios that was converted to 16 a channel radio. I know that because it does not have an "expanded logic board" how can I get signalling funtions besides buying one that does?

Also, It says in the GM300 model information page that trying to add scan into an 8 channel radio is not going to work. Why is this? Mine scans all 16 channels fine. In fact, the 8 channel models have scan already as a feature!

The logic board on the 8 ch will not let u do what u want.That is the diff. with the 16 ch. board.

Josh, your GP350 is ready.
The GM300 series used a couple of different logic boards. Check with Monte, he has what you want or can possiblly reinitilize yours.
If you really need the expanded signaling.
Some day I will learn how to blank and reinitialize logic boards.

Hi:

Sorry to report, just making a simple channel
expansion mod will not support what you need.

You will have to start from a Blank GM300
Logic Board, tell the radio what you want
it to be, and then realighn the radio.

email me direct if you wish some futher
informatiom

Not recommended for most persons as the GM300
series IS NOT very user friendly like the old
Maxtracs / Radius Mobiles.

It's not important at all. Some of the things I monitor use MDC-1200. On my GP350 radio, I used it in rx only in order to block part of the tone burst out. I was hoping I could easily do the same with the GM300 radio. Thanks for the input.
