Hi all,
I'm planning on installing a pair of CDM's in my Sequoia. My CDM's are pretty early (R02.00.01) remoting appears pretty strightforward on the surface, any issues I should be aware of before ordering
the remote kits ? My B plan plan is getting a pair of PM400's

- What radios do you own?: CDM's, CP's, CM's, and more

There should not be any problems adding remote kits to existing CDM's. AFAIK, there is no software change required. Just follow the instructions in the installation manual.RadioSouth wrote:Hi all,

Simple to do. I picked up a CDM1550 VHF, and then found a remote kit later. Easy change out, just pop the head off with the plastic tool that comes with the remote kit. You disconnect the ribbon cable. Install the blank front on the radio guts, and the other one on the back of the head, make sure you plug the ribbon cables in right. There is a little dot on the cable and near the connector. Put it all together, hook up the cables and away you go. No programming changes needed.
