DIGITAL PTT BUT NOT ANALOG

Post by Jack »

I have an XTS-5000 on a SmartZone system and when the digital talkgroups are active, the PTT ID shows up on the screen. However, when analog talkgroups are active, it does not. Is this normal? Is there a way to get them to show up on the analog talkgroups?

That was fixed in a newer firmware release.

Stupidity creates job security!

If your radio has old firmware, programming it with the latest CPS will not add any new features unless you have the latest firmware to match..

CPS = Customer Programming Software, Not CPS Software.
