Good Afternoon, Are there any system admins out there that over see a moto m core system? We recently upgraded our system and we were told by big M that we could migrate our "permanent" patches to the core rather than tying up resources on our MCC7500's. There are certain talk groups we ne...

Good Afternoon,

Is it easy as just swapping out the front plat on a APX8000 2.5 model to the keypad 3.5 model and it allow for the keypad to work? I noticed the dome buttons already exist under the 2.5 case, would like to use the key pad for shortcuts.

Thanks

Good Morning, Is there a way to see where/when a radio last affiliated/de-affiliated. I can use the affiliation display to see a date, but not the site it was last off of. Is there a way to look at the logs on zone watch, if so where are those stored on the core? 7.11 M-Core system. Thanks for any h...

Ah, ok. Should have read that better. I did notice that in the manual one of the DB25 ports, called out at as port 15 Multipurpose RS-232, might work and seems to have the same type of signals going in and out of it? If not, all good, was hoping that it might work. http://www.repeater-builder.com/mo...

Have a question on this as well. I found an older discussion on this and it talked about the DIU port on the rear of the qunatar. Could that be used instead of the front v.24 port? I have several v.24 P25 repeaters, just not many that have the front port. Here is a pinout I found from this thread: h...

Hi all, I ran into an interesting issue last week up at one of my sites on a RF linked channel I was working on. I had to move the equipment one rack over to make room for some new equipment. After moving the radios, I know hear the last second or so from my transmission being rebroadcast. Dispatch ...

Good Morning, I am working on a project using a JPS NXU tied to a XTL-5000 for some Roip testing. Working great so far so long as I tx/rx through the radio from a different radio. I cant pick up the mic on the XTL tied to the NXU and start talking. Do you guys know of a setting that will allow the m...

So a question on the topic of TX and RX systems regarding the howling sound, since it sounds like that is where most of you have found the issue when it has happened. I noticed yesterday at site B that there was a splitter on the RX antenna in the building that wend to a dangling coax. I will be rem...

Ok, tried this and maybe found something. I keyed up the transmitter only and listened to the front speaker. I heard intermittant static through the front psnel soeaker. I then put a hand held on the same rx system and was recieving a carrier on the rx freq whith only the transmitter keyed. Mind you...

Ok, gave it a try and included a video as well. When in csq all i hear is normal static noise, nothing else. Even had a call come over when in csq and it was clear as well. I put a portable tadio on the multicoupler as well, no noise present when in stby or receiving traffic. As we were running test...

Thanks for all the input fellas, I will see if I can answer the questions without forgetting anything. Also, now that I have had some sleep, here is some more info on the issue from my end. This problem started at Site A and was on a freq of 154.xxx. The repeater is on a multiplexer with other fire ...

Hello,

I haven't done much posting, but have been a member since last year. Is there a chance I could be let out of the pen? Trying to get some help with a radio system I'm working on.

Thanks
Brian

Here is the noise we recorded earlier this morning.

Yes, that is the exact noise. What is that, and how the heck do I get rid of it?

I will post the noise I have when I get it uploaded as well.

Good Morning, Hope you all are well. I wanted to see if I could pick your guys brains on an issue I am having on an interference issue my shop is trying to figure out for our local fire department. We have been banging our heads against the wall for a couple weeks now trying to narrow down what exac...

Hi all, I am starting into the Motorola world and want to pick up a XTS5000 because of work. I found one on ebay but im skeptical because the seller is out of HongKong. It has a different flashcode listed than the one printed on the label. If I posted this in the wrong area, let me know. Just trying...
