Using multiple radios with the same ID on the same talkgroup on the same system works fine and transparent if done correctly. There was a point that I had about four radios programmed to the same ID all active and they all transmitted just fine. I could even private call my ID and talk between them ...

I don't think this is something new but maybe something revisited. I remember the time of having to have Win 3.1 installed in order to install the Win95 upgrade. At least the boot sector had to be at win31. That was the trick around it was to format the drive for W31 with a boot disk.

OX

Well, in all fairness he said it sounded like 4 DTMF tones 250 ms each in duration then an attention tone and then said in a second post it was like that of Atlanta. Sounds to me like they use the DTMF tones to open up the PA system at the appropriate fire houses instead of all of them at once. Colu...

The F01/92 is a corrupted codeplug. Forcing another codeplug into the radio will fix the F01/92 but then you will have the F01/93 again because the codeplug won't match the radio's fingerprint. Here are your ways to fix it: 1) happen to have a codeplug read with newer RSS saved BEFORE you used lab o...

if you have the proper equiptment and a know good codeplug or the orginal codeplug you could do it. "known good codeplug" means a saved one from that radio that would be in good shape. It could be inferred to use another codeplug that is known good but from another radio which on that rad...

I've never seen it work. The latest MTX firmware radio I've had was 1.42 and it wouldn't do it.

I think the only Jedi stuff that does Star is MT2000 and HT/JT1000.

Maybe Call24?

They have a cabinet with speaker and PTT/call button, a radio (used to be motorola then kenwood then ritron) and an interface board to run the light timer and any logical functions.

The bottom line is that I would not trust Symantec to protect a block of moldy cheese, let alone any system I run. My advice would be to try ZoneAlarm and see what happens. That's a good one. Here's a thought though. If you have a router with firewall, why do you need a software firewall too? I dit...

Ugh. If you're going to post something, then be productive about it. The low battery set point is programmed in lab only. The settings you refer to are for minimum alert volume and delay between low battery warnings. If the battery was bought new from a dealer within the past few months, have them l...

OX

The radio treats 83 the same as 80. If you were to convert the Uniden 80 to Motorola the talkgroup would be 008 or 800005 on a Maxtrac. The 0 is a normal conversation, the 3 is a crosspatch talkgroup function. See Tom Swisher's site for info about converting talkgroups: http://www.wa8pyr.net/800mhzt...

I like the 2006 reply to a 2001 post. I guess it might take awhile but every question gets answered?

OX

The Dell Lattitude D610's have a serial port. We use those at work all the time. Nice little machine especially if you get one with blue tooth and wi-fi.

OX

Also, you shouldn't assign scanlists across different systems. You can program a "talkgroup" type scan list and list talkgroups from different systems, but you will miss radio traffic.

OX

You might be able to do it by reassigning the side buttons to "menu" buttons. I tried it once but gave up. [edit] I went in and looked. I did find a "undefined 0xB5" key in the button assignment section but I don't have a clue what that is. If you're not going to use the PTT or i...

You guys DO know that AMD, Intel, Seagate and other manufacturers funnel money to Microsoft right?

That's because he ain't in the US where Nextel bought and sloughtered most of the 800 SMR systems. There used to be a 800 SMR here with 28 channels and very good coverage. Monthly access was $10 per ID and you had multiple subfleets available to you (the one my company was on had 3 subfleets). Phone...

When was the last time that the FCC "cleaned" up one of it's mistakes? The problem is the first letter "F" for Federal. The only thing my GMRS license is good for now is to annoy the little kiddies.

OX

Right, I get that but on mine it groups them kinda like what the trunking maxtracs do but backwards: A1, A2, A3 are displayed when 1, 2, 3 are programmed into that field. The groupings are by 8's so if I wanted C4 to display for mode one, I'd program the alias to 20. It would be nice if I could alia...

OX

Sounds fishy to me. Take away the field program features of the JT1000 and you have a HT1000.

OX

What I remember of the rumors was that you needed Maxtrac Super Lab and special firmware. Never had it, never seen it, but a friend gave me the info. As for aliasing, on the GM300 and Maxtrac, isn't that called "zone"? The Maxtrac I have has zone enabled and the display shows A1..A8, B1..B...

On the MTS2000, once you're in scan program mode, the "channel in scan list" indicator is the actual scan symbol that looks like a Z. If the Z is present, the selected channel is in the list. If the Z has a dot next to it, the selected channel is priority_2 and if the Z has a flashing dot ...

Pri-Scan is enabled on the controller, well for sure on the public safety system (primary fire, police, etc). I've never had a problem with getting a personalized list of Pri-scan channels to work, unless you are referring to the former Franklin County system which is public works and backup public ...

Make sure that the "Mic AGC" is disabled. When I had that option used on my MT2000, the mic becomes VERY sensitive to audio and the circuit takes a couple seconds to adjust. but starts off VERY low.

So you can download the iDen RSS from Motorola's Iden page? I can download the Standard apps utility, the GPS upgrade utility, the phonebook manager and media manager software, but not the RSS. I've seen the RSS floating around but there is nothing that allows you to do any programming like a radio....

You probably could. Raise the security on your ZA to where every web access requires your authorization. The call home would be to a MS server of some sort. They are probably not stupid enough to use a dedicated port and use port 80. When you discover the URL to the phone home site, let us all know....

You may have a bad switch. Power the radio up and enter test mode by pressing the bottom side button 5-10 times after the power up beep. The radio will then show the model number, serial number and RFTEST. Press the blue side button and the display changes to CH TEST, press the orange button. Now cy...

Monty was close to figuring it out before he passed away. He had some test jig that he made up. I'll second the last post, unless you have the original codeplug saved, there is nothing that you can do. If you have the codeplug saved from something newer (like 6.x) then there's a chance you can fix i...

Too bad. I just threw out a handful of dead startac 7868's. They all had different problems but I used them for parts. I have a couple of the car kits that I think works with that version of ST. These had the 3-watt booster, speaker, mic, handset and cradle. They were nice phones in their day. Defin...

Actually, if you read the information on the Batlabs site, there is a very accurate description of what happens when a controller becomes "toolproofed". The controller upen boot will go into F01/93 because of an internal checksum failure caused by using Depot RSS which does not recalculate...

I've seen run-time errors on corrupt RSS installations. Reinstalling fixed that problem. Maybe after 12 years that hard drive is going?

There was a firmware glitch in either 2.x or 3.x that prevented PP2P from passing through even though it was enabled in the configuration.

Maybe some moron changed the controller board (and RF section) with a MT2000. You have nothing else to lose at this point so open the radio up and verify the part numbers inside actually belong to a HT1000.

I thought that the signals were multiplexed at 3:1 or 6:1 meaning up to 3 (or 6) subscribers could be communicating on the same channel at the same time? You know, like TDMA or CDMA? I forget which format iDEN is.

It could be interpreted either way. I'm sure he's a big boy and if he wanted the info for decode only then that info is there. But if he did mean it the other way, the info is also there.

When you set up a Nextel account, your account is assigned a unique fleet ID. All members of your account belong to your fleet. Same thing as if you put up a radio system with portables, they all are on your system and no one else. Nextel overcame this initially by creating networks within geographi...

Note: It will decode quick-call but will not encode quick-call. I have a MT2000 with the same version and that's all it does. You'd be better off finding a HT750 or HT1250.
