XTS2500- Stuck with ASK. Please help

[mclej03]

Hi all.

Recently bought an XTS2500 and after getting a cable and the CPS to program some RX frequencies, I have found it has ASK loaded into it.

I have been viewing posts all day trying to figure out how,who or what is the answer to fixing my ASK problem. if anyone can help me redo a codeplug or program this properly to make it work it will be greatly appreciated.

there are 2 possible ways... one is using CPFix. the other requires a software that is not generally available to the public and requires you to build your own codeplug...search those out and it may get you more of what you need to know

Any way to download CPFix. I've been searching for a while with no luck

Software

Although the 2500 is an older radio and probably no longer supported, Motorola carefully protects the rights and access to their programs. Posting a request for the download can result in your being banned from some internet sites. I had this problem with a XTS3000 and found a technician with the software who was able to remove the ASK. Trying to find a Motorola dealer with the software might be a better use of your time.

CPFix is still available on MoL for download.

XTS1500/2500 a s XTL1500/2500 have another year of support from Motorola at the depot level. Support for the 5000 series ends this year IIRC.

To remove the ASK, CPFix requires a special file which is not available on MOL.

I’d contact the seller, & tell him the radio is useless, as it’s locked. If he can’t unlock it, I’d demand a refund. Hopefully you paid with PayPal.

The CpFix is available, you are just not looking hard enough. You will more than likely have to join some group to get it, it's not generally out in the wild. Recently it was updated with all packages which do, ASK removal, reprogram ABC switch, code-plug version go back and others.
