I seem to be having siren issues with my trunk mount VHF XTL5000 with a W9 head. The siren used to work fine until my radio suddenly wouldn't boot when starting my car. It would only flash the backlight for a split second, turn off, then flash again until the ignition was turned off. The radio...

I have an XTL5000 in Remote Config with an O5 Head. I know my way around the CPS and I program through the front mic connection on the O5 head. What does it take to switch over to an O3 Head? Can I just pick up any O3 head on eBay? Once I remove the O5 Head How am I programming? Thanks to All...

I own a XTL 5000 and had my firmware upgraded recently from R07, to R20. When I power down the radio for a long time and try to turn it on, the W7 head does not display. When I took the power source out, held the power button on the radio, and plugged in the power source, the W7 head display...

I recently bought a new desk for my radio room to replace the previous countertop & drawers. When I was searching for the new desk, I had some requirements in mind... I needed it to be sit/stand, L shaped or wraparound, and be humongous enough to fit my monitors, radios, both PCs and...

Recently decided to purchase an XTL with a W3 head in dash configuration. I am in the process of converting it to remote config and i am running into one part that I cannot seem to find. The elusive HKN6096B cable. I was wondering if it would be possible to convert one of spectra cables...

Have an XTL5000 that ADP will not work for some reason. Flashcode: 500008-000484-6 The radio acts like it has no idea that ADP is activated in it. Updated the firmware to the newest version and that didn't solve the issue. Receives clear channels no issue. When it tries to receive a channel...

Ok, the Shack with the Zetron Model 27 Receiver Monitor is Complete. Purchased "BRAND NEW" with all parts and connections off of eBay. I'm so glad I went with the Model 27 vice the music/DJ style previous Mixer. The sound quality/clarity is amazing and the "Blinking" active and "Solid" Mute...

I have an XTL5000 that previously had a W series head, but has been swapped out for an O5. It works fine, except I only get a single line on the display ZONE+TG, and I’m limited to 3 characters for the zone name. I suspect this has to do with the head change, but how do I fix it so I can have a...

Good evening, I have two XTL5000 O5 high power decks one vhf, one uhf that has an annoying audio pop/thump. The problem is present anytime a button is pressed on the radio or whenever the radio received audio. The button still beeps and the audio is heard; meaning if I push a button for an...

Hello. I think i've got a problem with my XTL5000.. I powered it up after being off for about a year. It was running perfect for about 5 minutes, and then the screen shut off. I have an 05 head on it. What I see is this: When i press the emergency button + the left program button and press...

I recently went to clone a Motorola PM1500 Mobile Radio. It powered on fine. This radio is a high power, 110 watt, radio with remote head. Something happened during the cloning process and now when powering up the radio it will power cycle a few times showing FL 01-90 and then will finally power...

Hey y’all, Got a quick question that’s boggling my mind. I have an XTL-5000 and every time I power it on manually the screen displays a readout saying “PWROFF NODELAY” for a second and then boots up normally. I’ve tried googling and have gotten nowhere. Can someone tell me what “PWROFF...

I have an XTL5000 800MHz that is headless. There are two db25 pin connectors on my radio. Is the XTL5000 capable of working with the W3 head? Has anyone had any success in making this work?

I have programmed an XTL5000 that has a tone after the normal MDC1200 keyup (wait to talk) tone. This tone is just a short beep but it's not the short side tone beep because it does it both on MCD and ASTRO channels. It's approx 500ms into the key up. The system we are using is Analog...
