Is there a way to get a XTL5000 or CDM1250 to decode multiple quick call tones on one channel much like the Minitor Pagers? I know I can make different channels with different QC tone but not a channel with multiple tones. Thanks Guys In the CDM1250 & 1550, there is a dropdown in the Signalling...

SteveC0625

Thanks very much. No problem. I try to pay it forward when ever I can. The other users here on the batboard have been kind, generous, and very patient with me as I struggled to catch up on dealing with the radios in my interest area. For Tom and everyone else, here is a link to that Minitor VI prog...

The PPS announcement selections allow standard, customized and enhanced. I understand the first two, but what does 'enhanced' do? One of the large dealers posted a 6 page "how to" on programming the VI. Here's the description of all three options: • Standard: Announces the mode, frequency...

Steve- I do indeed have a Fleabay watch list for Minitor II's, but some of that stuff is priced right up in Crazy Land. I thought I'd test the waters here and maybe try to do a trade or something, since hams usually don't shaft each other with wanton abandon. I did not think that $5 to $10 per reed...

Howdy gang. I'm a volunteer FF ( and dept. radio geek) and I have a department issued Minitor V pager. I also personally own a couple of Minitor II's that came from a neighboring department. Here's my pickle: the battery life of my Minitor V is, shall we say, rather sudden. Rather than spend money ...

I lied. The pressure was killing me so I installed the xvi32 and had a few issues until I Ran as an Administrator then hex code changed first time and I'm able to read the radios. Am I correct in assuming that from now own as long as I'm using this CPS, any time I read a password protected radio an...

SteveC0625

Thanks Steve, I think I'll try xvi32. Right now when I go to Windows START in the find files and folders I type in cps.exe and then right click on it and I'm given the option to Hex Edit with Hex Workshop. After I install xvi32 I'll have to get you to tell me how to read the cps.exe file because it...

I open cps.exe and scan with Hex Workshop. I searched and found the stream with the 75 09 that I changed to 90 90, closed Hex WS and it ask me if i wanted to save changes and I clicked yes.

I feel your pain. I've probably spent a weeks worth of reading over the year or so just trying to teach myself. Here the update...I saved a backup copy of cps.exe to my desktop.

SteveC0625

No matter which hex editor you use, David, it should find the string that Steve listed above at address 0012B041 hex for R05.16. I mention this because it's only a double check showing that you've done everything correctly up to the search-and-find point. Let me add that I spent many hours of inter...

nope no dice tired EMEA cps I did a google search on gp680 cps and from what I found, it looks like there is an MPT specific version of the Waris European CPS that will program that radio. I found a number of threads in both US and UK forums that discussed this in detail. Probably worth an in depth...

This is probably like beating a dead horse, but with all the searches I seem to find no new information, just the same info that's been floating out in cyberspace for a while.

Does anyone have any recommendations on both a compact speaker and where to mount said speaker on a 2014 Grand Cherokee?

We're going to put a VHF (Astro Spectra) and UHF (CDM) in a new Ford Utility Police Interceptor. I lean towards gain whip ants with a spring base.

Hello everyone. I've been out of the radio end of things for awhile and I'm not quite up to speed with what's out there at the moment.

I purchased a pair of UHF 4 channel CP200's last week. There were originally purchased together since their serial numbers are just one off. Their firmware version is R03.06.02.

20 channels and 20 named. Its weird because I can actually write back to it the computer shows changes have been made, but they haven't.

Maybe my HT1250 was force feed an LS codeplug using Waris Lab CPS? Maybe the number of conventional channels in an LS codeplug depends on how much space is used up by the trunking setup - so if you don't use trunking, you get more than 32 conventional channels? I also had to use LA (Latin American)...

I have a "HT1250" with no tags or labels. I have read the radio. The model number is H25KDH9AA6 The serial number is 749TJLT28* Firmware is R05.13.09 Do I have a HT1250 or a trunking HT1250LS? The CPS seems to have LS trunking options available BUT I have been able to create 3 Zones of 48...

I have two HT1250's with no tags. At switch on, one radio gives a 2 bleep "dit dit" while the other gives a 3 bleep "dit dar doh" Does this indicate that one radio is a HT1250LS with different firmware to the HT1250...or do later standard HT1250's use different boot up bleeps to...

For the sound issues, this thread from a year ago contained some valuable tips on setting up the Waris HT's for better sounding audio: http://batboard.batlabs.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=104868 I would think that the EX600XLS should benefit from the same settings.

I have 2 CM200 in a low power RICK setup. The transmit radio only turns on now when connected to the RICK and the receive radio is powered on.

Best to replace the SM50's with something NB.
