GP68 Guys- can not align

OK you GP68 experts... I have three GP68's from Hong Kong, (not mine) in here for alignment.

The radios from H K have low power out, low battery alarm, and poor modulation.. This is bad even on Ham where these radios are used.

The alignment s/w reads radios but says "Model Not Supported".

Any clues????

never owned a gp68...on a guess the software is to old? since its still an active export radio, something might be new?

is it possible that the radio is one of those ap's with a gp sticker on it? or does the alignment program work with both models?

HLA, that I do not know.

I did find that PMVN4002D, GP60 Series RSS. is susposed to work, but again I do not know for sure.

Are these Asian market radios on the 205 to 225 MHz band?

These are VHF 144-148 and UHF 438 -450 Asian market GP68 radios.

Perhaps you need the Asian RSS. I've seen mention of this concerning the 220 radios.
