I'm interested in the knowing what the following does.
Q445 Fireground Accountability Software
and does it include Q446 Fireground Voice/Channel Annoucement or is Q446 a seperate option?

Q446 does not come with Q445, they are seperate. However, Q446 does come with Q806 Astro Digital operation.

Here is some info on Q445 Fireground Accountability Software. http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Bus ... ocaleId=33

Clicked on that link and realized I have that brochure. Just never read it. Any other options that are included with Q806?

Nope, just Q446.

Does a digital-equipped (conventional) XTS2500 8MEG w/ R12 include channel announcement?

I'll have to check that out... though I find it to be a major annoyance.

ok, another quick question. If a radio has Q806 ASTRO IMBE Digital Operation and H38 SMARTZONE Systems Operation, is it still capable of having conventional channels or would you need G48 Conventional Systems Operations to add conventional channels?

H38 Smartzone is the highest system package you can have. So if it has H38, it will also do H37 Smartnet features, along with H35 Conventional operation.

Somewhere, buried within the archives of this Board, is a complete, detailed, piece-by-piece explanation of how a thirteen-digit flashcode is put together, the combinations of numbers, what they mean, blah blah blah. I forget who wrote it but it's a number
of pages long. If someone remembers or knows the location it would be good to post it.

Stuff like this: That first number in a FC, say it's a 5, is a combination of a 1, which is digital operation, and a 4, which is
enhanced digital display.

Good luck. Hope you find it. It's definitely worth getting and keeping.

Somewhere out there is a Flashcode calculator build with macro's and excel. Latest version I know of was 2009 which included OTAP.

did anyone ever find that information on each option?
