Anyone here know what the 'default' frequencies/PL/DPL are in the Motorola CLS-Series Business radios?

I know they are able to do about 56 or so (but only 1 at a time)
I'm just looking for the frequency they come pre-programmed with. I will be employed at a local theatre as an usher, and am able to use my own radio (ex600) and I'm just not sure on what the frequency/ PL/DPL tone is on the preset.

These are the radios they use:



Thanks for any help on this.

Edit: These are UHF radios

According to the manual (online at Moto), the default is code 1, and that translates to 67.0 hz.

The unit is capable of 38 analog tones (PL) and 82 digital tones (DPL).

Make sure you enable companding and all that other audio altering crap because those CLS radios come with that enabled... just like the crappy FRS radios.... possibly "nonstandard" PL as well that way your radio integrates well rather than sounding 'off'.... no MDC, please.

And you have an EX600 now too? Shoot, when I was 16.... I had an MT500 and was content with that... and it wasn't even all that long ago either.

Yep, got it today. I wouldn't be suprised if they used companding...ugh.

What is companding? Sorry! Thanks

I am hearin ya Josh. My first /\/\otorola radio was an HT220 slimline that I got ahold of and recrystaled to our local ham repeater. I thought that was something else. I can't imagine having had an EX600, I'd have been in hog heaven. And has not been that long ago, I am only 28.

Alright guys I believe I've got the frequency/tone:

464.550 MHz TPL 67.0Hz (1)

Thanks.

companding is (in short) a compression method used that compresses audio and then expands it...so it sounds more 'true to life'. search the board, we've discussed it before.
