Radio ID Help

Post by kj4bnd »

Ok,

So the system i am on.. 800 TRS Smart Zone The radio ID That shows up on all the other radios is 6 digits however i can only see 5 digits in side the trunking system configuration of the radio. and in a few radios i only have 4 digits. Like the first or first two digits are stripped off..

Why? and How?

I think im missing a concept if someone could enlighten me..

Thanks,
John

Lemme guess, first digit getting stripped off is a 7. Normal ID schema for type 2. TRBO radios will only display the actual ID as programmed. So if they receive a radio with ID 1, they display ID 1. An XTS5000 would display it as 700001

Yeah i knew about the 7 but i have one that only 4 digits are in the Codeplug.. Then i realized that its a 70XXXX and the preceding zero's get stripped too..

Thanks!
