I got the codeplug from the XTS5000 VHF m3 I am going to be getting from a friend and I cannot get the MDC or QC2 any channel. Is this an issue that the radio is not flashed for that option ? Here's the flash:

Q806 ASTRO Digital Operation
H14 Enhanced Digital ID Display
Q52 Federal Government FPP
Q498 Hardware Multikey Encryption w/ OTAR
H46 Trunked One Touch Status Message
H38 SMARTZONE Systems Operation
Q53 FCC FPP And Radio Cloning
Q387 Conventional Voting Scan
Q173 SMARTZONE OMNILINK Multizone Operation
Q361 ASTRO 25 9600 Baud Trunking
Q446 Channel Announcement
Q667 ADP Encryption Software DSP Based Only


DSP 12
Host 12

Neither QCII nor MDC are Flashcode options. An XTS5000 will do MDC with a Host of R03 and above, and QCII with a Host of R08 and above.. Your Host R12 has both covered. Go into your conventional personality, and click the signaling tab...

THANKS !!!!!!!!! A picture is worth 1k !!!!

I don't know why I over looked that. I have a lot to learn about this radio version lots of options. I have been using the HT/CDM(2000) CPS for so long and this is so different. I still don't understand why M still only has 15 of 16 channels in the scan list just like OLD my MT2000,looks like for big $$$$ of the XTS you could scan at least 16ch. A cheap CP200 does 16ch.,but that's mother M for you.

Keep in mind, organizations purchasing most Motorola equipment don’t purchase portables and mobiles for the scanning capability.. That’s what a scanner is for, and not what an XTS5000 was designed to be used as, whether it be VHF, UHF or 800..
