Default good find in trash Motorola RDU4100

I drive a commercial waste hauler I found 13 Motorola RDU4100 Radio's .
All in the original boxes with owners manual's and chargers .All seem to work and talk to each other except for one radio is not cloned .I found the website to reprogram them so iam going to give it a try it this weekend .
ive tried to find out the 10 different freqs that are in the radios with no luck .
my question is and I have not looked at the website yet but will the program site show what freqs are in the radios ?

Good find. When Downriver went digital, one of the fellas that works at Mt.Trashmore downriver found boxes and boxes of good VHF equipment. When I went to go look and see what this radio looked like, I came up with the Moto link below. Am I smoking something, or is that links to the software right there on the page on the bottom right?

No big deal. They have been giving out the CPS for the (Consumer) for ages on these. Of course with lousy pre-fabbed frequencies, not those of your own.

Motorola just likes to tease you into thinking they are being nice, but there is always some sort of catch behind it.
