have ADP on a 2nd system works fine but no yellow LED on Enc RX like my 6000 By default, the LED will flash yellow on conventional secure receive only. If you want to see the LED flash on secure receive in trunking mode, there is a checkbox that will enable this in the trunking system configuration...

ADP definitely won't work in analog. Only DES-XL will work in that mode.

Is this on a trunking system? Sounds like your system manager may have set that talkgroup ID or your radio ID for clear TX only.

I have observed the same thing. My APX7000 can go for days. I began using an APX8000 about a year ago. It can kill a battery in 8 hours easily. Another concern for me is that the APX8000 always seems warm to the touch after it has been running for a few hours. I can leave it sitting on a conventiona...

Is it just me -- Or have they messed with the font again? Looks slightly different to me.

R7 host/dsp was posted on MOL last night. I'm loving the ability to have 10 preset keys for various talkgroups. Really handy. Haven't used it enough to observe much else yet. Once you upgrade to R7 read and write times to the radio are ridiculously fast from the CPS.

Cheers,
SD.

I can say one positive thing about CPS R07 so far. I installed it last night. My codeplug with 1800+ channels now opens in less than a minute. In previous versions it would take over ONE HOUR just to load. Never mind the lag while making changes to the codeplug itself.

SWEET!

Thanks for the clarification, Scott. I would definitely recommend trying out the conventional scan list approach with TX inhibit. I find that Elroy's trick works extremely well. And I suspect that this will still work. It's fairly well documented in a number of other threads. Back to the R06.05.05 d...

Also, it appears the trick of receiving P25 systems without affiliating disappeared sometime between here & R06.00.00... :( Scott, Just to clarify - are you referring to scanning via scan list while sitting on a conventional channel - OR - actually sitting on the trunked system using TX inhibit...

Hello,

I have a VHF / 700 / 800 APX with the software system key option. I just tried it out, and I can definitely add talkgroups up to 4 digits in HEX. Running the latest firmware (R06.05.05) and latest CPS (R06.01.00)

Cheers,
SD.

I'm personally not going to read very much into the inclusion of that FlashPort pdf document. First, that document was copyright 2009. Second, it doesn't mention anything about regular firmware uplifts. It simply documents the process of using an iButton upgrade the FlashPort options in the radio. I...

One observation.. After upgrading to R6, my APX-7000 display font slightly changed. Or maybe it's just my imagination?

Cheers,
SD.

Would it be possible for someone to tell us about the internal points they have used to get a digital COR signal? It would be very helpful when trying to interface mobiles to external devices.

Thanks,
SD.

Hi Guys,

I will be attending the Dealer show as well as IWCE. Staying at the Wynn as well. Looking forward to bumping into some of the fellow batlabbers.

Cheers
SD.

lol.. Thanks to everyone who responded. I was able to locate what I needed.

Unfortunately this doesn't help Grog with his fantasies, I think he needs to check out a different website for that lol

Cheers,
SD.

Looking for a fairly robust (cough, whore) s-rec for a 1Meg ASIII 403-470 UHF. Please PM me if you have one. Prefer something that can be used with 9.05 RSS.

Thanks,
SD.

I just thought of another way that you can do this. Not sure why I didn't think of this sooner. It is possible to program the radio to have a single talkgroup with "priority 1" status. You can set the radio to treat the talkgroup as priority 1 even when it is in the middle of another call....

Hey there, EDACS does have a way of handling "announcement" talkgroups. When an EDACS system is designed, they select the layout of the fleets and subfleets. Each subfleet actually has a talkgroup that acts as a broadcast talkgroup. Any radio tuned into that particular fleet automatically ...

Hi Rob, Hopefully this information helps you out. Supposedly if you can't READ the radio, you can still WRITE to it with an older version. So, if you have a new codeplug made up from scratch in your version of ProGrammer, you can just write it directly into the radio. Of course this may not help you...

Hey JTS,

That's AWESOME! I'm glad that it worked. I'm always pleased to help out a fellow Batlab user

Cheers,
SD.

Hi JTS, Wow, that's really rough. I have never seen that problem. In theory, I do know how to fix it however. I hope you had a backup of your Tracking Data, Feature Encryption, Flashcode and ADI/DSP file. I have heard of radios being recovered using ProGrammer. Supposedly ProGrammer comes with a too...

Ok, here is another question that is related to the original topic of "Monitoring Responsibly". With a VHF or UHF radio, you obviously have to set the Base/Offset information in order for trunking to work. I know there is a spot to set RX and TX ranges. Now, what happens if you properly se...

Well, I hate to add more to this thread. I know that people really want this discussion to end. But, if anyone else is still waiting on a radio, please send me a PM. I have been waiting nearly five weeks now for mine. Let's compare notes, I am concerned that I will never see anything despite all of ...

Just to add more to this, I'm pretty happy. Apcosystem has exchanged a few e-mails with me in the past 24 hours. We have agreed on a shipping date and method.

A little communication goes a long way to making for a happy customer.

Cheers,
SD

Hey Mike!

Great to hear some comments from someone that I know. You guys are making me feel even better still about my purchase

Yes, it is me! The EDACS guy. I'm finally getting into some Motorola gear... Great to see you again!

I hope that everything is going well with you.

Cheers,
SD

Hi Mark, Thanks for sharing your experience! This helps me to feel a lot better. I can only speak for myself here, the only issue for me so far is communication. Things happen, life gets in the way. No problem. I understand that.. However, after sending "some guy" on the Internet almost $1...

I hate to take this slightly off topic... Some of you have mentioned that the XTS series is compatible with accessories from other Jedi series radios. Is there a list of these accessories? Can anyone confirm which battery chargers will work with the XTS? Will the HT-1000 series of Jedi-compatible ch...

Wow, I wish this thread had existed a week ago. I used "buy it now" last week for a radio. I had seen so many happy people on here talking about apcosystem, I just didn't hesitate. He answered my questions before the auction, no problem. So I went ahead and bought it, and sent him the mone...
