XTS-5000's losing encryption

Post by 5-sides »

I have several XTS-5000's that all seem to lose their key too often. They are UHF, Conventional, IMBE w/DES-XL. Not all go down at once, but like everything else, it seems to happen in clusters. Infinite Key Retention is enabled, and I am using a KVL-3000+ to reload. Any help would be appreciated.

Firmware is 2.50.20, 3.50.01 and 4.00.00 (makes life fun).

Searched Moto-online, didn't see anything---

You may want to open up a GCC. Save the codeplug(s), as they will want you to email these to them, with a good, detailed (yet succint) technical description of the problem, and the surrounding circumstances.
