Hello all, I am the EMS director for a local dragstrip. We purchased some F43GS radios. I have the cable and software. Have got everything programmed so far. However, I cannot figure out how to program the scan function correctly. When the unit is in scan if the Mic is keyed up, it will stop...

I am trying to program talkgroups in this radio, but everytime i make new contact it shows as "private call", i cant seem to find option for talkgroups or group call on this unit. I tried programming thru Chirp and WLT2000 but radio will not connect and i do have Baofeng 1701 K1 cable. If i go...

Hello, I have an XTL-5000 700/800 MHz radio that is not turning on when pressing power on. It might be my mistake since I might be doing something wrong, I only have 1 year of Motorola experience and do know how to use CPS but I don’t have a programming cable for this one. My setup is basically...

Hey there, Hopefully I am posting this in the right place - I have just discovered this forum tonight and am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. My family and I have bought a Uniden BCD996P2 for my grandmother because her old police scanner became irrelevant after the local...

Hello, I'm a new user. I've previously owned an analog scanner and used it to listen to emergency channels before they went encrypted many years back. I decided to get back into it and ordered the Noelec RTL-SDR v5 from Amazon. I understand you ideally need two for trunking, but I wanted to see...

Is there anybody out there that knows how to reprogram MCS 2000 Motorola Radios? A few friends and I just got a handful of these radios and we would like to program them to a different frequency. I have the RIB cables, The CPS software was given to me by the same guy that programed the radios...

I just started streaming to the call ingest today, anode 2830. I noticed when listening to my feed that sometimes I may here something on SDRtrunk but not on my feed, like I may here a unit call for dispatch, hear dispatch on my SDRtrunk but not hear it on my stream. I also noticed this when...

Hello everyone, thanks for the invite ! As far as I know i have read/watched all the content (forum posts/threads, youtube videos, motorola videos) and the only instance where I could find someone with the same issue as I have is this guy here...

So I currently have a bcd436hp. I want to listen to the Hillsborough County, FL P25 Phase II public safety channels. With the antenna the scanner came with, it was very choppy. I found this antenna (...

Why don't other systems like DMR & P25 not show up when setting the quick keys? Are they separate from each other?

I have no idea how to program in talk groups on a trunked system, I can't seem to find anything on how to except for whistler radios. I want to listen to police, fire, ems, etc. how can learn these trunked system?

Hello everyone! I'm new here and new to hytera radio I'd like to know if anyone could help me. When I transmit with an Hytera HP785 radio the led turns red and the talk permit tone is played. As soon as I release the ptt button the led that indicates that I am transmitting turns from red to...

First off, I'm completely new to radios. I have a Baofeng uv-9g GMRS radio. I have tested it via NOAA to confirm its work. I want to use it to monitor my local municipality radio frequencies near me. I'm trying to program my radio through CHIRP. the freq. in question uses DPL 026 for tone...

I have a midland mxt 275 I am having issues with. I am trying to get it on our local 675 repeater with a 156.7 tone. I turned on the repeater function. Repeater channels appear. I go to repeater channel 20. Rt is set to 25 Ct is set to 25. I transmit and it goes through. When someone tries to...

Okay first I do love both of these scanners - the step up from a 125at I started with is amazing. Having a screen and local frequencies automatically loaded is so cool. BUT on both devices - unless I’m using trunking discovery or conventional discovery I cannot hear a full transmission. I have...
