I think what he was trying to say is he wanted to take a xtl5000 with w7 head and install it into the xtl consolette with tone remote option.

kb9suy

Thanks guys!

Good Morning gentleman,
I do not have the service manual for this portable but have a bad emergency switch and need a part number so I can order it and replace it. Thanks

kb9suy

I know you don't need a rick. I wouldn't build it though without some type of controller for public safety use.

kb9suy

From what I read it sounds like county dispatch sends a dtmf string to open up the informer which keys the uhf radio then they send the quick call tones and message. The informer then resets after a pre determined time and unkeys the uhf radio. If this is correct a CDM repeater would be the easiest ...

I have been running one since April and love it! I'm pretty tough on my stuff and I haven't broken it yet. I would take this over the minitor V any day.

kb9suy

I have a 2007 magnum civi and have the same noise. Driving me insain!!!!!

kb9suy

No I haven't tried that yet. Just made sure they weren't being bumped or anything.

Installed a motorola dual head vhf pm1500 radio about a year ago in a fire engine. Has been working just fine up until a few weeks ago when the rig was off it randomly started transmitting intermitently rapidly. Due to the engine having a mdc id we were able to quickly figure out what rig it was. Th...

I have a done this with cm300's without a problem. Send me your codeplugs for the vhf and uhf radio I can take a look. PM for email if it's not listed under my name can't remember.

kb9suy

Okay that answers that question thanks.

To revive this thread The astro spectra only has two different interconnect boards one for the w3 remote hhch and the rest w7,w9, etc.?

kb9suy

FYI: I found a few shops installing and programming these in our area. Every department runs a two-tone for the station alerting. They have been having very intermittent alerting issues. After reading the the help file oh yes I read the instructions lol I found out they were programming the decode t...

We noticed this problem with you xts5000 on one of our uhf ham repeaters. We had to increase the PL deviation for it to open our pls.

kb9suy

Has anyone been able to do a cross band with gm300's succesfully? I can pass VHF to UHF Can not pass UHF to VHF any luck.

kb9suy

I been noticing some of the same problems with my cf-29. I notice if my battery isn't fully charged it starts to act up. When I plugged the power plug in it went away.

kb9suy

If you are comparing functions the Kenwood will blow the pr860 out of the water. Plus your most likely going to pay a little less for the kenwood right around the same price range. I have used both radios. I really can't say anything negative about the PR-860 the ones I have sold never came back wit...

Hey That console looks familiar.... HAHA I held it in my hands feels natural now we have to a do a fire test make sure it doesn't melt.

kb9suy

I want to remote mount my xtl5000 mid power w7 head. What parts do I need to order. Sorry if it was in a previous post but only found o5 information.

kb9suy

Started a service ticket with Mother M. Emailed them my codeplug they are trying to figure it out. We had a second unit which did the exact same thing. Sounds like a new a firmware release will be coming out shortly.

kb9suy

Does not transmit works fine with channels that are in the simplex mode but if the rx and tx are different will not transmit.

kb9suy

I just installed a vhf mtr-3000 15 channel conventional analog base. All the channels that are simplex rx and tx fine. I can change the channels with no problem. When I try and tx on a channel setup to talk through a repeater I get no transmit only receive. Has anyone experienced this before.

I remember using a speaker mic on the radio before and it worked so it was something recent that stopped functioning.

kb9suy

That was my second guess. If it benches up and tunes fine I have no problem using it. I rather use that then some crappy ht1250. My radios out perform most of the radios on the fire ground anyways.

Evening everyone on the board, Here is my problem looking for some insight. I picked up a used xts2500 vhf model 3 portable radio. I'm sure it's a panther radio. I was using it as a back up radio when working as a chiefs aid or IC. I never used a external mic on the radio just the internal. Radio wo...

Illinois Mabas has adopted 1500.0hz as our evacuation tone for fire ground operations. I programmed our mobile cdm radios for one button press to get to the tone then hit the ptt. I carry the xts and also use the evacuation tone function it comes in very handy.

kb9suy

Are the Pre-amps the same in the Astro spectra as the regular spectra? I have a 50watt mobile with handheld control head that really would love to have a hotter receiver in it. My kenwood tk-7180 blows it out of the water.

kb9suy

That's a interesting idea I would have never thought of. No need for a bda just radiax from top to bottom and "fire department Connection" on the outside of the building just like your sprinkler and stand pipe connection. That's a cheap and easy concept I never would of thought of. It woul...

kb9suy

Good point but your missing my whole point. Field testing will never account for real life situations. Most fire scenes never run past more then 2 hours. There is always a exception. Your not transmitting for long periods of times. Most fire ground transmissions are a few seconds at the most. If you...

kb9suy

I wouldn't be comfortable running my portables below maximum power. There are too many variables on the fire ground that could inhibit transmission and reception. Truthfully that's why your fire personal should be maintaining there radios to make sure they are charged and ready to go. There have bee...

kb9suy

Okay soooo What's the replacement? Turbo? Kenwood tk-7180's that's what I am buying and selling now lol.

kb9suy

Merry Christmas Everyone! I pray everyone has a safe and enjoyable Christmas.

Click on radio configuration then drop down too Display & menu click on advanced tab then click on emergency receive. Then click on your MDC system that is assigned to the channel your using. Click advanced and check box that says Emergency alarm receive indicator. That should do it.

kb9suy

This entire Pro series line has been the Biggest pain in my but. Failure after failure. If it wasnt for having the mdc decode I would switch to kenwoods.

kb9suy

Interesting, Time to do some testing. Glad I check the post before I installed. Ill have to send two back and get reds.

kb9suy

Well I just got most of my lights in for a install coming up on the Chiefs new buggy. I ordered Vertex leds and I pulled them out and tested boy was I impressed. I think they are going to look sweet. I was told NOT to put red behind red but clear behind red. Sirennet.com has the leds demoed behind t...

I just Pulled a dual head mcs2000 vhf 100 watt mobile out of my chiefs car. The reciever is extremely deaf. When im using tuner software cps The radio will open up at specs.

The issue with the wiring isn't going through the boot - it's the path from the underhood area into the door jamb area. It will eventually rub on something and you'll have a problem. The proper method is a hole in the firewall (you can likely find an existing hole, such as the hole for a clutch cab...

kb9suy

Only way to tell is to have the flashcode thats in the radio and run it through the decoder available below on this website.

kb9suy

Never!!!!! run anything through the door jam from the engine compartment, it will compress and short the wires out after time. Drill a hole in the firewall and use a gromet or run it through a existing gromet. Other then that mounting looks good i would of got the pop in console designed for that tr...

running the 4 gage wire to the fuse panel is fine. mcs2000 and xtl to the fuse panel. a 30amp relay for the icom radio with main power tied to fuse panel. Now you have to find a igition lead to tap into for turning the relay and two radios ignition wires. I can't tell you were to tap into unless I k...

Illinois statewide mabas. mutial aid box alarm system. utilizes a 1500hz singletone for evacuation statewide. It is up to the infividual department to program and utilize this function.

Did you know if you drive down the highway in a Prius and stick your arm out the window the car will turn!! hahaha All jokes aside Sence this is a hybrid do you run into power problems especially running 100 watt radios. This is something that has been pondering in my brain for awhile. Do these new ...

I see moto has the Starcom 21 system in Illinois and on googling this I do not see much bad press on this. Most of the State and Local officers near me like it. Of course with any analog to digital migration... most of them miss the old analog VHF system. (which worked just fine btw....) I get to u...
