What kind of motorola radio do you use or own

[N1XDS]

Myself I own and use is a Motorola XPR 6550 UHF 403/470 for amateur radio use so far I like it.

I use an APX 6000 Portable that was issued by my fire department. I like it for the most part, the only dislike is the battery life of around 11-12 hours.

I use an XTS5000 at work. Love it. We just bought a slew of APX7000 radios that haven't been deployed yet.

The only Motorolas I personally own are a VHF PR400 and a UHF CP200XLS. The only thing I don't like about them is the lack of zones and the Tx audio could be better.

My Fire department also uses VHF CM300s and PR860s. The PR860s are great radios except there is no way to add or delete channels from the scan list without using the CPS. The CM300s are good for the most part but the Tx audio is just plain bad.

Never seen the EF Johnson radios before but I heard the name in the past. I normally use my XPR 6550 for ham radio use only only had the radio less than a month probably one of the best purchase I ever made in the radio.

Question for someone I'm noticing on some local ham operators on a repeater link repeater system that there is a hard cut out that appears on different ham operators no matter if they are mobile or at home. I emailed one of the club officials he claims nothing is wrong with the system. Do you know notice anything like that on your Motorola radios or EF Johnson radio?

"hard cut" can you give some details? I am thinking, I know dangerous, the missing squelch crash from users who have reverse burst turn off set.
