Ok our department has us trying out a new radio to see if we like it. We have a copy of the RSS for the radio but dont have a programing cable.

The radio is a MT 1500. Is the programming cable for this radio the same as other radios or is unique???

Thank
Jon Gage

We just got 10 of these radio's , MT 1500 v1.5 with display. We were going to go with the PR 1500 but we decided the display would be nice. I have yet to start playing with them yet. Our vender told us they do MDC signalling, but yet they are a few posts here that say other wise. I'm looking for PTT ID and decoding. No concerned about displaying the "caller ID" on the screen. Let me know how you like these so far, I heard they sound great, very good audio.

MT1500 does not decode MDC PTT IDs, only encodes them. Stupid, yes. That's Motorola for you
