Does someone make a handheld DMR with both VHF and UHF bands and that comes with software to program it? Please recommend specific models if so.
Well...That blows. I was looking at a used Motorola XPR 3300 but I'm confused about the software. Is it a one time buy or some expensive subscription thing?
Oh...So after 3 years I can still do everything I need to do as far as changing the channel frequencies and radio ids or whatever but I need to buy two radios in order to have both UHF and VHF and then just one software package to program both? I guess that's not too bad other than having yo buy two radios.
Connect Systems is selling a Tytera MD 380 with the programming cable and software for $130.00 till Friday 10/23/15.
Are both of these radios fully compatible with Motorolas radio ID system? I want to be able to talk with a friend who is on a Motorola XPR3300. He said it uses some kind of radio id where there is a million combinations to choose from.
Check out this video. The guy making the video says that you need an unique radio id regardless of the frequency or they wont be able to receive your transmission. That's how I understand it anyway. Does this mean that only Motorola will work with it?

Radio ID number shouldn't really matter for a talk around group call. If you want to add private call you'll need to set it up in the CPS and use the radio ID of his radio as a private call contact.
CS700 and MD-380 will work fine with MotoTRBO radios as long as no basic or Enhanced Privacy, RAS, DCDM, or trunking is used.
