XTS3000 CPG

Post by Rayjk110 »

Hello all. I have a question here.

First off, I have an XTS3000 VHF (H09KDC9PW5AN)

What I would like to know is if I can force a RSS Codeplug into it so I don't have to use CPS. (Currently is has a CPS-orientated cpg in it)

What would I need to do this? And how hard would it be?

(I already have RSS, cables, and RIB)

What radios do you own?: Too many!

Have you tried to read it with RSS? As long as it wasn't programmed with CPS above a certain version, then it will still work (I don't know the version cut-off though).

If it reads, then you're good to go.

I believe the last dual RSS/CPS version was RSS R09.00 and CPS R02.00. If you're into CPS R03 or R04, you're hosed on going back to RSS.

Personally, I don't see why one would want to run RSS for routine day-to-day radio maintenance. The CPS is so much easier and doesn't require digging out the dinosaur computer...

Well, I would use the CPS if I had it, tho. It's not really going to be for day-to-day maintenance, just a 1 time programming I need done to square away a few channels.

I eventually signed up with Motorola for an account and just used CPS.
