Hi everyone,
I hope this particular issue hasn't been talked about but I couldn't find anything after hours of searching.... but anyway...
So recently my company purchased its own repeater system to run dispatching through for the company's security division. I was tasked with programming these Motorola MOTOTRBO XPR-7550 radios seeing as I'm the only one with and radio programming experience but it's extremely limited...
I'm attempting to program several Motorola MOTOTRBO XPR-7550 radios to work with our very old Kenwood TKR-820 repeater.
For the sake of security, let's pretend the frequencies we are using on the repeater and radios are in the GMRS band.
We have the radios programmed (In Theory) to the following information:
Tx Frequency- 467.637500
Rx Frequency- 467.662500
CSQ Carrier Squelch
and no Quick-Call II Signaling System
Our Kenwood TKR-820 is set to the following (In Theory)
TX Frequency- 467.662500
RX Frequency- 467.637500
No QT, DQT or DQT (Inverted) signaling type
In theory, shouldn't this type of system with these parameters work? Our system is setup the same (just different frequencies) and the radios are set to analog channels. The repeater shows the correct programming and the radios show the correct programming but they aren't working.
I'm not familiar with what QT, DQT and DQT (Inverted) are or how to program that into the radios. I figured out how to do it on the repeater but sadly the MOTOTRBO software doesn't seem to have an option for those.
Any and all help, advice or comments regarding this issue would be appreciated.
