Does anyone know of or have a chart/document that lists model series or type indicated by the serial number prefix? Like "205" is an XTL2500, "721" is an XTS5000, etc..... I have found this page but I am not sure it is 100% accurate. http://www.kwnet.net/n7qqu~/motorola-informati...

Thanks for the help guys!

Jason,

I'm familiar with the VIP audio connection for dual heads. Are you saying that if i had the cable, second head, VIP audio connector, mic and speaker that it will all be plug and play by simply reprogramming the radio as a dual head?

Anyone???

Hi to all, I have a customer who has recently taken delivery of some used (new to them) Astro Spectra 800 MHz radios with the W9 control heads. These are all currently set up to operate as single head remote mount radios. They are to be installed in ambulances and require a minimum of a rear mic and...

Wes

Steve, please send them my way! I greatly appreciate it!

Luckily in this application there is not a repeater housing so space is not an issue. The power supply is also sufficient for the CDM to operate.

Wes

I have a customer currently running a light duty repeater using 2 M10 mobiles and a R.I.C.K. Due to narrow banding, they must be replaced. They have an extra M1225 and CDM1250 laying around. Is there any reason these 2 radios couldn't be connected to the R.I.C.K. and the customer be back in business...

Hello everyone, I am starting this thread to see what folks are using for the 2011 Ford F250/350/etc. When you need to fender mount an antenna. We all know the best results will be obtained when going through the roof but there are certain applications where we must use the fender. Due to a redesign...

No popups.......

After seeing what firmware is in the radio, I am not sure a firmware upgrade will do me any good on this problem unless what is in there now has a corrupt bit somewhere causing this exact problem. I think if it was corrupt it would be having other issues though.......

Wes

AEC, The problem is that when you assign Call Alert Encode to any button on the radio, that button does nothing. The one radio works fine, the other does not. Both radios have been written with the same .cpg file. Ive tried assigning the Call Alert function to different buttons on the radio and that...

Wes

Update: I have been acquiring the needed hardware and software to upgrade the firmware in the radio. I am now ready to proceed and upon reading the radio to save a codeplug before the upgrade I find that the current firmware is already R05.04.00. Should this problem be occurring with firmware this c...

Wes

I'll have to get the firmware version. As far as cloning goes, they both accept the same codeplug.

Both radios have the same model number: AAM25KKD9AA2AN

All, I have 2 CDM1250 radios I am setting up for 2-Tone encode. I am familiar with programming these radios and how to set up the Quick Call system, Call Alert settings, Call List, Assign buttons, everything associated with making this work. I have written the same codeplug to both radios. The probl...

I am currently working on a 2013 Police Interceptor Utility and the PDF wiring diagrams from the above link do not match what is in the vehicle.

I know Missouri HP is pumping out some power. I can copy them on the mobile at times here in Northwest NC on 42.58 which is the same as one of the NCSHP frequencies. It is not skip. They are licensed for a 15KW ERP

Wes

A wrong image is my thinking too......

Wes

The first picture shown of the RF deck on the APX6500 home page suggests that it is a dual band radio. http://www.motorola.com/Business/US-EN/Business+Product+and+Services/Two-Way+Radios+-+Public+Safety/P25+Mobile+Radios/APX_6500# Is this correct? I cannot find it anywhere in the specs. It is my und...

For UHF applications check out the Phantom series from Laird (formerly Antenex). We use these on all of our farm vehicle cab installs. Combines, Tractors, Sprayers, Dump Trucks, Etc. They perform well, are 3db gain and are only 3 1/2" tall. It screws right onto the NMO mount. We have had very l...

Wes

Jumpers for setting the stored voice time are located on the voice storage module which is a removable board located near the center of the decoder board kinda under the speaker, you have to remove the speaker to see it and I cant remember if you have to remove the RF board to get it out or not........

Wes

Guys,

Thanks for all the help!!

Wes

Wes

Thanks for the info wavetar..... Does the radio use the old Jedi cable to program or something else??

Wes

Wes

Does the RVN5022C Software for the PR860 program any other models like the CPS software does for the PR400/CP200? Or is it for the PR860 only?

Thanks,

Wes

The mic and speaker will plug directly ito the back of the control head. The mic has a square or rectangular shaped molded plastic connector that will push in to the back of the control head. It has 5 pins or so. The speaker has 2 wires with the same pins like the control cable has and plugs into th...

The Minitor IV does not support the "Silent Scan" feature.

Wes

I've read here that the delay/revert timer starts at the end of the last tone. The dealer sounds like he thinks it starts at the beginning of the first page. Any thoughts on this? Neither one. The delay/revert timer starts the first time the carrier drops after the last set of decoded tones are rec...

Wes

Tom in DC,

What dual bander are you using that is only 14" and is that cheap? I am interested.....

Thanks,

Wes

Wes

It sounds like to me what you have is a Director II SV and someone has put it into Minitor II SV housing. The Director II does not have the capability to monitor. The bell position is tone alert and the speaker with line through it is vibrate alert. If you have the time, correct parts ( no longer av...

Im having the same problem as northstar, But I want to confirm.. If I set the pager to n=6, the pager will emit white noise for up to 6 seconds, and then stop recording ? YES But it the dispatcher starts talking within those 6 seconds, it will record the whole message ? YES or just 6 seconds of the...

Wes

All of the Minitor V batteries I have seen do have the same date code format on them. However, they are hard to read due to the ink they used to stamp them. If you hole the battery at the right angle, in the right light, you will see the code stamped just above the label.

As a member here was saying you could get the affect that you want but you waould need a 2-channel model. Pos A - F1 - Medic 1 Pos B - F2 - Medic 2 (on duty) Pos C - F2 - Medic 3 (Medic 2 tones OFF duty) you could have Pos D either scan or use the on/off duty function and have all sets alert. This ...

That is what I'm here for.....

As it has already been stated, there is no priority function when in silent scan.

On 99.9 % of these that I program, the first thing the customer wants done is to "remove that annoying voice". I am yet to understand /\/\'s logic on this feature. It is easy to fix, on the User Data screen under the Model Options tab, it is the second field down from the top labled "...

The Minitor V will not do 3 different sets in this configuration either. It would be just like the IV. I am not aware of any other pagers on the market that would work like you are needing. Our Shop has demoed the Apollo (Minitor V look-a-like) and the Tribute 911 pagers and they will not do this ei...

Wes

It is not possible to program it the way you have listed. The tones are not selectable per position. You could set it up to do 2 different tones, by programming F-1 and F-2 as the same frequency, but with the different tones. You could add the third set of tones to one of these positions, but while ...

It sure would be nice to get the Bat Black color back.......

Mike, Thanks for the input. I guess I should clarify and add a couple of things. This problem is intermittant, and does not occur all the time.

Anybody remember what the deadlines are for everybody to be switched over to narrowband? I was thinking it is 2013 for buisness band and 2015 for public safety.

Well, I guess no explanation is needed. I just had the old address stored in my favorites and had never changed it. It was still working a couple of weeks ago when i last used it....

Thanks for the new link, it works great.

Wes

Wes

When you go to the address: http://radio.the161.net/index.php

It used to be the Radio Information Board, now it brings up some Chicago picture site??????

What gives, anybody know??

Wes

Wes

Ours is set up with a seperate set of tones from the pagers. Asking our Communications to encode the siren tones seperate after the dispatch would be like an act of congress. That will not happen.

Jay, your idea is not bad though, I'll look into it further....

thanks for the tip.
