Disregard that, Pager Geek, you were correct. I thought I had double checked for that but apparently not! Works like new, thanks for all your help.

before i rip it apart again, by unseat do you mean the pins? The pins all interconnected when I assembled it, unless you mean something else.

Thanks,

Hi, I got it open and I tried the foam Idea, after about 45 minutes of trying to get it sealed again, I finally got it! It worked great. New problem, when I put it on c or d (monitor F1, Scan F1/F2) There is no audio. I just hear a quick "click" then the channel opens up but there is barel...

Mike 701

Now I am not trying to be a total pain in your @$$

- but, what would you recommend for removing the screw? I can't seem to find a bit that will fit it. It appears to be a very small allan-head wrench bit, but I can't find one small enough. What did you use?

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the help, next question, how exactly would I get a minitor III open? I've heard it's not exactly easy. Any help is apprecated, thanks!

Hi guys, I have a minor problem with my minitor III. VHF 151-159 2 Channel no SV, Model A03YMS7239AC...my problem is when vibrate is activated, the vibator is LOUD! I mine as well not use the tone anymore because the vibator can wake me up by itself! What may be causing this, any way to fix it? Than...

Hi, I am trying to program my SP50, the radio is fully functional and I have programmed this radio with the same computer, same programming cable, same RIB every time. However, this time, whenever I try to read the radio, I get the error #7 - "Invalid opcode" anybody know what this means? ...

Hello, I have posted before about this, but never got anywhere with it. I lost the screw on my pro series speaker mic, and I cannot get a new one! I tried my local dealer and they said, sorry, you'll need a whole new unit, damn jerks!! I am asking if anybody can point in the right direction to getti...

Hello, my fire department has been looking for batteries for our minitor III's. We found a cheaper solution from Grainger, however the batteries are 1.22V and are Ni-MH, instead of the standard 1.25V Ni-CD. My question is, would this be OK? And would the chargers have any problems with them? Thanks,...

Mike 701

That sounds similar to what I am trying to do, it is on our command vehicle however. Could you be more specific? I am aware that I am to use the 16-pin accesory plug in the rear, but how can I plug a modular microphone plug into it & a speaker?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike 701

Hello all, my question is, how would I go about creating an additional speaker & microphone for my cdm1550? We had this setup on our old vehicle with a maxtrac, but I never even got a chance to look at it & it is stripped now. Do I just need to purchase a regular mic and speaker? Or do I nee...

Mike 701

I forgot all about the extra mic & speaker! In fact, that is the setup we have on the now retired command vehicle with our gm300's. There will be no repeaters in the vehicle, we run a simple conventional repeater system with only 2 voters, but that's a good thought.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike 701

Our fire dept. just acquired a new Ford Explorer for a new command vehicle. We are deciding on which radios to put in it, we all agreed we want to put in CDM1550's, I know, I know, there are people that hate em, but we already use them and they work fine. My question is, if I wanted to use the remot...

Mike 701

Turns out, I had programmed the emergency button for the zone select feature, and that was the problem. I didn't have it programmed twice, but I guess the radio doesn't want that button to do that function. Well, I reprrgrammed it for emergency, works fine now.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike 701

Actually, I just refurbished everything, nothing is stuck, good thought though.

Thanks,
Mike

Got an odd problem here with my mts2000 uhf 450-512 type III. When I turn it on, it just stays in self test mode.....eternally. UNLESS, I press some buttons, almost like slapping somebody who is sleeping to get him up!

So what is the deal here?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike 701

What radio trying to read? Is the RSS AA, AZ, or LA? That error code means you are using a foreign radio. For instance, if your software is AA, and you're trying to read a Pro9150, or Pro7150, Pro7100 etc. etc....it will not work, that is the error message you will get. On the flipside, iIf you are ...

Mike 701

I am having a tough time reading my mts2000. When there is no cable connected, or it's connected, and the radio is off, when I goto read the radio, I get a TIMEOUT ERROR, accordingly. When everything is connected fine, I get an INTERPACKET VIOLATION ERROR. What's the story here?

Mike

Mike 701

WooHoo! - Thanks.

Mike

Mike 701

I have heard that the MTS2000's are very "fragile" radios in a firmware sense. I know this is broad, but when programming, is there certain things I should stray away from? I am using R6.05.00, the radio was previosuly programmed with 6.0. The only no-no I have heard so far is stay away fr...

Mike 701

I opened up the mtsx.odb file in hex editor. I searched for every text string of 450, and edited it to 440. Do the same for whichever band you want to use.

Mike

Mike 701

Nevermind, I got it believe it or not!

Mike

Mike 701

I have been told that the mts2000 series can go out of band physically, but some have told me that actually getting the software to do it is another ball game. I will be receiving a 450-520 type III mts2000 in a few days, and already have the codeplug. I cannot get it to go below 450MHz, then again,...

Hey there....I am 17, and this is only my $0.02. You sound motivated and like you know your stuff, but even coming from a senior in high school, I don't think it's such a good idea to leave college. You're 22, you should be graduating soon anyway, right? If things go sour, you are going to NEED that...

Mike 701

blah blah blah....the real thief involved is Motorola.....$399 for Pro Series CPS, and had to go through a friend who has an account because they wouldn't even sell it to me!!!!!!!!! Not quite as much, but same thing for GP300, MTS2000 stuff, I won't comment on where I got that stuff because /\/\'s ...

Mike 701

Also as a side note, I run my pro series cps using WinXP, haven't had a problem yet, been using for about a year now.

Mike

Mike 701

I do have 2 of these models, but am not an expert on them. It sounds like you mixed up the polarity. I don't remember for sure, but take the rig apart, and check for yourself to see if there is a fuse.

Mike

Mike 701

Hello, this is not a serious problem. Our department multi-cast's it's tone out on 2 channels. The first is simplex, straight from headquarters. It activates the pagers with no problem (Minitor II, and III's) - the second channel also puts out the tone, but on a repeater. This is not large problem b...

Model # for Pro Series radios: AAHLN9729.

All the new pro series rigs will do it as long as you have the optional board installed.

RKG, where would this option be under?

Mike 701

I am trading for an MTS2000 uhf from a friend. He knows for a fact that it did do mdc1200 at one time. The radio has water damage about a year ago, and Motorola replaced the RF board (I believe, ill double check on which board it was.) Certainly I would've expected the replacement to have the latest...

Monty, thanks. Code3 was kind enough to supply me with one

Mike 701

Hello, I was just wondering how much it would cost me for Motorola to flash my mts2000, not on warranty of course....I contacted them 2 ways, phone & e-mail & didn't get a response. My local dealer said he couldn't do it, only /\/\ could, but he couldn't give me a quote either. I need to get...

Mike 701

MTS2000's have FLASHport capability, capability to upgrade to newer features (mdc, quick call...) Properly flashed mts2000's can decode & display mdc ID's. Correct me if I'm wrong....I believe a properly flashed mts can encode quick call II tones as well as decode.

Mike 701

I know this is sort of a "want ad" but it is such a small item, I thought I'd put it on here. I simply need a screw for the ht1250 speaker mic! The dealer nearby said they couldn't get me one, I would have to buy a whole new mic! I will pay anybody for the screw/shipping, but my mic right ...

Alex, right before I posted them up, I asked him to send me pics of those areas. I figured htat's what you wanted, I'll get em up as soon (if) he sends them. Thanks for your help.

I was curious to how to retrieve the flashcode out of an MTS2000, the person I am buying from said he hit squelch a number of times after start-up & got 5.65, then after pushing the side button 4 times it says flshcd 000000-0 six zeros then a dash then one more zero. I doubt the code is all zero...

Mike 701

Anybody???

Mike 701

It does do MDC b/c he has it enabled on TX, he just cant program it too see if it decodes, he has it programmed not to recieve mdc.

Mike 701

I am buying one from a seller, the code he gave me is 5.65. Will this do MDC decode & quick call?

Thanks!

Mike

Mike 701

What is the latest flashcode on the radio, the latest the seller supplied is 5.65. Will that do MDC decode & QC-II?The model # is h01sd9pw1bn - according to the breakdown chart, this is 470-512, will it do 450 & below?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike 701

Hello. I am looking to acquire an MTS2000 in the near future. It will be either a Type II, or III UHF 450-512 model. It will also be flashed up to date. What type RSS/CPS should I get (I have a friend who has an /\/\ account, just have to dish out the cash....) The DOS, or windows version?? Will it ...

Mike 701

I know that subject turned some heads - My question is, what is the version number for the MTS2000/MTSX RSS/CPS? It is the windows version I believe.

Thanks in advance,

WHOOPS!! Thanks Jason. I had it grounded into a metal screw, however, that screwed into ceramic, so of course, the ground is rendered USELESS. I moved it over and everything works fine. fewwww
