I'm sure someone's posted this already but if it hasen't been, here's something cool
Subject: MOTOROLA P25 XTS4000 OPERATING MANUAL
https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/form ... or_pdf=pdf
THIS IS NICE. THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR THE XTS4000 COVERT RADIO.
THE FEDS MUST HAVE DREAMED UP THIS ONE. AN ASTRO SABER INSIDE an i930 like body. And VHF only.

It was addressed here initially:

I worry that, due to the timing (April 2), I wasn't the only one that initially thought it was an April Fool's joke.
The rumor is that you're exactly right in that the Feds had it made, and that it's probably going to be like an SSE5000, where it's tailor-made for one client and no one else can get them. (I'd
love to be wrong!)

Well I'll be damned. A friend of mine that works for the department of agriculture told me he heard they were making a phone/radio inbreed like that but told him "yea right". Will wonders never cease.

On the last page the display say's TETRA, so the question remains will this be made to operate in 3600 systems or P25 and what bands?

well got to play with one today. it had 9.05.xx firmware, DES-OFB, DES-XL, AES-256 in it, did not show the flashcode when put in to test mode. this had to be a preproduction unit since it had no sticker with model , serial number or FCC type aproval on it, that and the fact the it had an ABC123 serial number when you put it in service mode, good sound out of it and loud speaker, little bigger and heavier than most flip cell phones these days but huge difference from a 5000 .

The MMI is so close to Motorola's TETRA terminals that they just stole the artwork out of documentation from TETRA terminals, by the looks.
