'Efcyvox P200' - What radio is this??

Hi all,

I've found a handheld which puzzles me. The unit looks a bit like a HT800, but it's clearly a trunking radio. It was sold (branded) by the dutch telecom as 'Efcyvox P200'. But researching the internet, I could only locate units called 'P200' without keypad and display. This strange thing looks like quite unusual / unknown.

So my question is simple: what type of radio is this exactly, and especially 'what RSS do I need for it'?

Thanks to everyone who can give some tips & tricks!

Hi all,

I've got a bit more information. This unit seems to be a Motorola HTX800.

Now my next question: 'what RSS can/should/do I need'?

Those radios are known as HTX, Akeri, Odin or CP1000. There are a bunch of different
versions out there, and each version needs its own RSS. Some of them can do conventional channels, some do not.
Real HTX (MPT1327) are trunking-only radios, so rather worthless. Some Odin-radios can do 100 conventional channels
(not bad). Technically they are a Genesis-radio, with an more capable controller.
