Actually, you can scan between bands with the APX7000, it is under the multisystem scan option. You will need to duplicate the channels you want to the multisystem scan profile. I assume you are in NC and using viper by reading your post. Give me an email if you have any more questions. I manage sev...

I was just recently at a product show and saw several pictures of XPR-7550. I heard the UHF Band 1 should be available to order and the VHF version should be late available April early May. They did not have one to play with but have ordered the dealer demo packages. Will let you know if I hear or s...

I just ordered 10 xts1500 vhf portables with the enhanced p25 conventional software, there was only like a $40.00 price increase on these from the mt1500's but we did purchase off of state contract. I think we gave around $1100.00 per radio.

I have heard through the rumor mill only that motorola is aware of it and are trying to fix the decode problem. Also the commander speaker mic will not work on the mt1500, have to use just a regular jedi mic.

I just got my Min V Monday and I love it--the part i like the most is the rapid charger!! Seems to recieve better than the IV

The scoop i got from seacom was that there will be a uhf and a vhf model and was going to be around 1400 bucks retail. Also should be available late october early november but we'll see--i agree looks alot like the xts series but half the cost ++. The tk-5400 is based on the 90 series of portables a...

i have had some processor speed issues with the 290's and 280's use a slow computer also--it is possible to program the radio with newer machines but i haven't had very much luck with 700mhz and above--but then again i have had a 1.5 ghz processor work fine-never know but if all else fails and you h...

I also suggest the kenwood tk790 and if u need mdc it is about 120 installed- nice radio-- and i also suggest the motorola mcs2000 but i would take a 790 first if it was my choice

go to hamradio.com buy the adms progamming software and cable for the vx-110 radio and now you have the cable, do not use the software though. It's like 30 bucks

Does this flash code for a mcs2000 vhf model 2 radio do conventional analog? 0000010000009

Thanks

You don't need software or cables to program it--E-mail me and i will send you the instructions. Not very hard at all

the only thing i can program mine with is the mtsx LAB. But i have 99 channels with the continuous rotary(only reason i have it). My 2 position switch under the channel selector is set up to do TA.

I like it so much better. they just put out a tk-2160 that utilizes the same insides as the 2150 but is a 16 channel w/scan radio. Just a tad longer than the 2140 but essentially the same size. Much cheaper if you only need 16 channels. PM me and i can get you a great deal on either radio Adam Weste...

I agree go with the tk790/890 series- if you really need mdc-1200 the aftermarket board isn't to expensive and the radios aren't "snap together" like the mcs2000

How can you program an mtx 838 to scan more than 8 channels--i go to scan list option and all there is to do is make another scan list. Is this like a saber and the 12 channels at a time thing or what-- not familiar wiht this radio have it for a couple of weeks to play with.

Thanks

I just heard a rumor that verizon was coming out with some kind of direct connect service with a new phone that looks like the v60--just a rumor-- was wondering if any of ya'll had heard the same?

GO TO http://WWW.COMMSWEST.COM HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET A FACTORY CABLE FOR YA-- I RECOMMEND BUYING THAT CABLE--WWW.TWOWAYPROGRAMMING.COM MIGHT HAVE IT ALSO YOU WILL JUST HAVE TO CHECK!

I KNOW ITS NOT MOTOROLA BUT IF YOU WANT SOMETHIN THAT SMALL ATLESAT GIVE THE KENWOOD TK-2140/3140 SERIES A LOOK--GREAT RADIO I DEMOED AN EX600--NOT TO BIG ON IT. BUT I THINK YOU WILL LIKE THE KENWOOD MODEL

I appreciate all the info-- will try to get these tested and programmed tomorrow-- i usually use kendoo batteries for stuff i don't use but i need something reliable but aftermarket cheap if anyone knows a better place to get some batteries.

Thanks again
Adam

Just aquired 4 mtx 8000's need to know if the mtsx software will program these and just some general infomation on what not to screw with in the rss. Anything valuable to know about these portables would be appreciated too.

Thanks
