No. It’s required.

I’m using the S/L setup in my other vehicle. I mentioned that at APCO in Denver, and one of the engineers basically looked at a sales manager and started to giggle. At least you can PTT on the channel without having to backout, etc, but still a PITA. Same with nuisance delete. But at least you can h...

And it works well. I just don’t have the lowband amp, but LB RF works well - and with the CH100 head I get 12,500 possible channels

I don’t see anywhere in recent threads mentioning Astro spectra..

Never had an issue. Just did it to two MW810’s with no issue using non-hacked Win7 CD’s

Usb cd drive

One above or below as well - from a few extra moons ago

The MW810's I have/had, seems like they go stupid once in awhile, where it doesn't see the HDD and goes into the boot device order or tries to boot from the lan/internal dohookie (can't remember what its called). I don't know if this is a hardware or firmware defect. Sometimes a power cycle fixes th...

Wow blast from the past.

The post above is what I think I wrote for the x9000 dual radio page here many moons back when I was playing with dual radio x9000's. Never played with the x9000/spectra setup.

Anyone still had dual radio or 128k firmware chips? I could use a few

Most of the parts for the 810 were hit or miss. Things like the heater and HDD flex were depot only parts.

The only way to know is attempt to order one via their support page (business online account) or via a full line Motorola dealer.

The first part is just a typo

I went thru the usual suspects. General hash - and I believe only when the alternator is pushing a higher charge to the batteries (dual battery). Its not the normal alternator whine. When the batteries are topped off, it goes away. It does not change with engine speed. Its defiantly under the hood, ...

I have a 2012 PPV Tahoe with a lip mount lowband antenna. Somewhere under the hood RFI from the charging system is getting into th antenna line. I can't figure out where though. Not sure if this is a common Tahoe issue or what I've missed in checking connections. Removing the antenna and the noise g...

Your aftermarket power supply is too small

A minor update: For the units that use the iQ module, Trimble now offers the Condor C2626 module. This is a drop in replacement and outputs only in NMEA formats and is a DGPS. Essentially, you do not need to work about the power and data issues as the iQ modules. It works out of the box. There are s...

You can always post the links here for everyone - not everyone goes over to the cs site..

Exact steps are outlined in the CPS help - but I used the AT&T text to speech web page, then use sound recorder to convert them from 16bit to 8bit audio

I've been using Comtelco antenna's for quite awhile and have been pretty happy with them. Anyone have good luck with recent installs for lowband and VHF? I'm tempted to try something new (1/4 for everything from lowband to 800 due to clearance issues) but curious on whats working for you. Also inter...

Already have an O9/Siren/Relay box in one vehicle and going to transfer it into a new ride.

I find th O9 perfect for vehicle intergration but not the O7. Buttons are not patrol friendly for light/siren use.

Soft cars, etc sure.

About to do a new install, and haven't made heads/tails with CPS and the manual yet...but here is what I am thinking, and haven't researched it too far yet... -Can you dual head the radio with different heads? IE: O9 up front and a O7 or O5 in the rear? -Through the VIP ports, can you input a 12vDC ...

Link updated in the product info thread. Thanks!

Mw810 is a mw810. I'll hunt down some info and see what I can update over the next few week

Trying out Office 365, and would like to create a shared calendar between the mrs and I in outlook and use the iDevices/Android so everyone is on the same page. Is there a way to do this without going thru a 3rd party provider? Is there an easy way to link everything up? The online help system they ...

I have a power supply from a CC2 console - what voltage and amperage does this output?

Has the three position output connectors and I want to say a couple of the cut wires are red and orange, but would have to look.

Beat me to it. I have a few more part numbers to add once I get a free day to do it

That should be the right one. I believe I took that part number from the one I ordered way back when. The 8xx series of MW's still use the MW520 models numbers (F506/5217, 5208..etc)

Ok, refresh my memory on how this works: At work we have 74vDC power supplies. Before some things became illegal, people were able to use iphone, laptop power supplies and the like 110vAC chargers on 74vDC power to charge items. Seems to work, no one noticed any ill effects. How does this work? Seco...

It's a possibility, but I'll ask. I didn't think of that one at the time. Sounded like they were show casing ultra new stuff the way he way talking - but again not ruling it out.

Local MSS guy came back from the Moto Partner show around the same time they had IWCE. He stated he saw the APX7000LTE there and there was a APX???? "Tactical" radio. I forget what the number series he said it was in. Was not the SRX. He didn't have any details on that.

Without being an ass, I was assuming you had experience with these on the Omaha Public Power District talkgroups. Last I checked the only brand of radios on the OPPD system was Motorola. No other vendor radios are being used or tested on that system. I do know that the LMR managers at Offutt AFB ba...

There is an extra key app for the MW520 floating around. I'll see if I have it. There are also documented "scan codes" for the softkeys if you know how to modify software to see them. Basically they are extended F keys IIRC. See http://batboard.batlabs.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=76035 Th...

The Kenwood 90 Series is pretty good for lowband. Somewhere there is a ham mod for them. I'd still go X9000 if I get a bigger truck Odown the road again someday. Otherwise I am still using an Orion. Works will RX in summer skip conditions, but you still can't beat the sensitivity of the X9000. With ...

GroundRat, how are they working on SRS?

Need v/8

So who wants to trade?

Since this is kind of timely, the person below is a member of several sites, for several years (including this one) and has made similar statements as the poster of this thread. You are not the first, nor the last that will ask the questions the way you have and gave similar "I'm official so he...

I was waiting for you to chime in

I hate to be "that guy", but its pretty obvious that you need this all done professionally, and with an iButton. You have a greater chance in screwing up your radio using the dirty method, and if you know about the dirty method, then you would have read on how to do it - and you'd still ne...

Topics merged. Please try to post in one thread only...thanks!

The MW800 uses a single laptop 200 pin PC2100 266MHz DDR memory module. The unit will offically support up to 1GB of memory. Larger modules have not been tested.

Short story, you will need to take your radio to your local Motorola dealer and have them do a "software refresh" for ~$75. If your friend has flashes left, he can do it as well. Also as stated, when you get the radio updated, have it put on a service monitor and benched checked for proper...

Actually, without looking up the specific HOST, I bet the radio doesn't have the rebanding firmware in it, so its looking for the channels on the old table, and not current post rebanding table. Pretty sure its HOST 7 or greater that supports rebanding.

Your radio (based on that flashcode) supports SmartNet only.

You shouldn't be seeing any smartzone options.

In addition, the radio system you reference is a standard smartnet system.

Sans a hardware or programming issue, it should be good to go.

Miami is a 3600 system
