    APX APX E5 Control Head / APX 6500 Mobile

    How do you set an E5 control head on an APX6500 to dark mode in CPS? Im having trouble finding where to change it? Do I need to set up a profile then set each channel to the profile? Is there a way to toggle this between light and dark mode for day/night operations between all channels? Thanks!

    APX APX CPS Disable Rx Key Name Display

    Where in CPS do you disable the Key name display on Rx? I don't want the received key names displayed to our users. I tried disabling everything in secure wide, but I can't get it to stop displaying it.

    Hey guys, I've noticed that when using a conventional scan, I seem to be missing MDC sporadically and I can't seem to find a reason why.

    Motorola APX 7000 TDMA

    Hi everyone, I have a 7000 in VHF/7-800. Conventional works great. I was wondering if there is any way to add features like TDMA to it. I know it is no longer supported by Motorola so is there a way that isn't Motorola? Thank you.

    APX o5 control head audio too loud

    This is a weird one. APX 6500 with remote o5 head, audio is mute when audio pot is turned all the way down (expected). However, audio doesn't actually show up until the vol pot has been rotated more than expected, and then when audio is present, the volume is way higher than expected. I presumed...

    Programming APX with VPN

    I am looking to see if it is possible to program an APX while connected to a VPN. I am using a laptop that is looking back at a host desktop in a network and it is not allowing me to read/write the APX while connected to the VPN. (Connection to the VPN is needed to look back at the server computer)

I am trying to use CPS version 16 Build 827 to program it. It will not do anything, and only produced Error 1057: Region not...

    Remote control APX 8000

    Is there a way to control an APX radio, or even mototrbo radio with a computer? Make it to where it can send and receive digital data through a cable interface? Using something like fldigi or similar.

    Do APX radios have volume normalization/audio AGC?

    I have a Unication G5 that I use to monitor my local P25 system. It's a great radio, but my biggest complaint about using it is that different users have vastly different volume levels. At a given knob volume level, some users on some talkgroups will be so quiet they are almost unreadable, while...

    Hello. Hopefully this is the right place for this. So, basically, I am a radio nerd in Michigan and want to listen to MPSCS. I understand that MPSCS is fully P25 phase II capable, but all talkgroups are phase I in every county except Oakland. Making this thread I'm assuming they'll stay phase I...
