Inhibiting a spectra

Post by n3obl »

DOes a conventional spectra have mdc1200 inhibit capabilities in it.

Our 911 center advised the kill command will not work for these radios.

Mod note: I tried to search with spectra inhibit. It deletes spectra. New search sucks

I have had several Spectras in here that seemed to be inhibited. Just something in the codeplug. The radio would not operate, read the codeplug and RSS displays "Radio inhibited"
I was able to clone them back to life. As far as I have found, the inhibit is not something that was over the air kill.

Not a conventional radio, only trunking units. Spectra's can be brought back with RSS, all others using CPS requires other methods to recover them upon being inhibited.

Lance: What?
Kilgore: Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like that.
Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
