Is H101 RAC compatible with Q52 and Q53 for the Astro 25 series portables?

Thanks,

Ko

H101 used to be a flashcode option prior to R06.xx.xx. Now it has since been integrated into the CPS and is no longer a flashcode option. And yes, it works in a radio with Q52/Q53.

Thanks for the answer Marc.

Anybody can explain what does it do? I mean H101 Repeater Access.

It gives you MDC Repeater Access capability. It's an old method of selective radio access control used in conventional repeater systems; you can program it to transmit every time you talk, or with a side button press.

A couple of ham repeater systems in the Chicago area use it, and that's about the only use a hobbyist would have for it.

You mean repeater squelched on MDC?

Kind of.. I guess? It means a repeater set up for it won't pass what it hears without a proper RAC ID in addition to PL/DPL, which is different and separate from a MDC unit ID.

Ok, thanks you. I mentioned the same.
