XTS2500 channel capacity

[Markb]

Hi all,

I have a model number question as it relates to the XTS2500:

H46KCD9PW5BN

Is it possible to tell from this model number how many channels the radio can hold? My understanding according to the literature is that a model I can have a max of 48, a model 1.5 can have 96 and a model 2/3 can have 870.
Where is the separation as it relates to the serial number?
According to Batlabs, the "D" is for "standard control, with display".
Sounds like a Model 1.5, which would hold 96 channels/modes. Do I have this right?

Thanks!
Mark

Also depends on what version fiirmware the radio has in it. I believe it was in version 09.00.00 the xts2500 channel capacity increased in the Model 1.5 to 96 from 48 and the Model II and III from 512 to 870. The serial number has little bearing on it nor does the controller memory size (A verison 4Meg or B version 8Meg).

You really need more information about the radio.

You are correct KS4VT

Thanks for this info. I has R12.00.13 firmware in it, but either way, it sounds like this is only going to be a 96 channel at best and I want the full 870 capacity.

Thanks again.

Then you need at least a type 2

Model ends in 6BN or 6AN
