    NVIS Distance Help

    I appreciate the replies. I guess everything I have read about NVIS is calling for an antenna that looks more like an inverted V, to get better antenna pattern more vertical. Based on what I am hearing, a basic dipole or endfed that is horizontal closer to the ground will work just as well, is...

    NVIS Distance Help

    I guess it was a more general question if anyone has had experience, successes with NVIS under 100 miles and what they used. We have tried using a Buddipole setup for NVIS, early evening (still daylight hours, towards dusk), power level one radio was at 10 watts and other station was at 100...

    NVIS Distance Help

    I am trying to setup communication between two sites about 80 miles away from each other. We have been experimenting with NVIS, 40 meter but have not been getting good results. I am wondering if anyone else has experience with this type of communication under 100 miles on HF? I think our...

    XTS2500 Channel Monitoring Questions

    I have my XTS2500's programmed now with a couple of different zones and channels. However, you can hear across all channels now. If I am on channel 1, all the other radios that might be on a different channel can still here me. I want it so you can not cross over different channels, if you...

    Upgrading XP7350E radios with old firmware

    I appreciate the input on this. I just went ahead and created a simple codeplug for them. I had CPS 16 828, but my firmware was older, so I must have at some point needed to upgrade to newer firmware when they still had it available. I have not looked at these radios for probably four years...

    Upgrading XP7350E radios with old firmware

    Did you mean the MOTOTRBO NA Professional Devices Release R02.10.10, because that has the XPR7000e series radio in it. The Commercial Device Release only lists the CP200 and SL300. Thanks

    Upgrading XP7350E radios with old firmware

    I have some XPR7350E's that have not been updated for a few years and still under the older CPS and firmware. I am not able to update firmware with the newer CPS 2.0. What I have seen is I need to update to the latest firmware prior to the switch to CPS 2.0, but you are not able to find that...

    Motorola XPR communicating with TYT DMR

    Appreciate the replies. I found the issue, I had dual capacity direct model enabled on those channels on the Motorolas. Turn it off and they communicate fine.

    Motorola XPR communicating with TYT DMR

    Has anyone had any experience with XPR7000 series radios communicating directly with TYT DMR radios, such as MD-UV390? I have both radios in my system and I am not able to get the two to talk to each other. I confirmed the contact list is the same with the same ID's and privacy is off on both...

    XTS2500 Enabling Features

    I have been working with this CPS a bit, trying to learn it. When trying to update the firmware it is asking for a system key / flash key. Is that just some sort of software that has to go in or is it a physical connection? I guess these radios are a lot different in that aspect from the...
