Sounds like it was an internal radio for testing.

If that radio has a developmental codeplug loaded then the release CPS will not read it. Only way to fix it I believe is to send to M to have the codeplug upgraded.

Does it have release or developmental firmware? (developmental would begin with D, not R.

From what I've heard there were a bunch of 5000's that became available within Big M. They have the developmental codeplug and need the Alpha CPS to program them. Seems someone internally skimemd a bunch and is selling them.
