I am tring to program a minitor V VHF pager in the 151 to 158.9975 range a little out of band. Frequency 1 = 154.355 Frequency 2 159.900.
Can anyone Help. I have a Minitor 4 that was programed with the old Dos software and it works perfectly. I would like to do the same with a Minitor V, but I can't seem to get any where with the new windows based software. Has anyone figured out how to ajust it, like you could with the old Dos software.
In my case, I need to cover 158.925 and 159.24 in the same pager.
My old min 3 and 4 pagers could do it, as long as I used the dos programmer. The min v software won't permit even a tiny deviation beyond the band limits.
Several of our M5 are programmed for 154.xxx and 159.xxx. they are working fine. They even work in silent scan mode. I have not updated the firmware to 3.0 yet either. Don't know how that will affect the situation. Hope it doesn't
Oh, I forgot. In the programming software when you get the popup saying the channel is out of band, I just clicked past it and went ahead with the programming. Loaded fine.

The Minitor 5 Software allows the following:
0.5Mhz for Low Band Pagers
0.6Mhz for VHF Pagers
0.7Mhz for UHF Pagers
Snowtech's pager of 158.925 and 159.240 will work just fine.
I found the band limits for B band in the hex editor, line, 005C320, but the pager still won't accept the out of band freq, can anyone else find the line that limits the frequency?
