I have a VHF HT1250 that was converted from an HT750 that I am trying to get working. The normal tactics that I use are not working. Loading various VHF HT1250 codeplugs results in the CPS says "Software does not support CHINESE codeplug" and most times a constant open squelch on the radio. I have been trying to load H25KDF9AA5 and H25KDH9AA6 codeplugs. The region code is set to North America. I am stumped on this one.

Also an oddity.. this radio would only accept 256k firmware, and not the usual 128k.

Anyone have any ideas?

The codeplugs your using are Chinese. Even with the region byte set to US, the CPS still sees something (not sure what tho..) that identifies the radio as Chinese.

Either load a "AA" codeplug or modify the CPS to bypass the nasty Chinese message.

Hope ya saved the original tuning values before messing with new codeplugs/srecs.

I got it working finally... not sure what exactly fixed the problem though..

How did you manage to upgrade a 750 to 1250?

Buy a case and screen?
