I'll preface this by saying I have been repairing XPR 6 and 7 series radios for the past year as an amateur repair tech. Mostly swapping parts like channel and volume pots. I've been getting low power readings (sub 3w) on my service monitor on a large batch of radios. Since I'm new to this type...

Hey guys, I recently bought a pair on eBay but the seller wasn’t totally honest with me, one speaker of my 2430s was broken and the batteries were also bad. Apparently eBay couldn’t help me so I figured I would fix it myself. I’m not new to tinkering with tech and soldering so I replaced the...

Had absolutely no issues until yesterday, when out of nowhere, CPS will not communicate with my 7500. Historically, I plug in the programming cable to the APX and Windows asks if I should connect to the network, I accept, and all is fine. Yesterday it stopped working all together. I...

Looking to see if anyone has any VHF models of the newer or slightly older XPR series radios for sale at a decent price. I am willing to coordinate shipping/pickup from around the USA/Canada. Please reach out if you have one you are thinking of selling! Thanks! conjshort@gmail.com

Hi all, I'm helping out a friend in getting an intercom system working at a new (old) farm they've got. There are a bunch of CPI DR10 remotes scattered around the house and the various buildings and those all work fine. Where the challenge comes in, is there used to be a Motorola Base station...

Looking to see if anyone has any .wav or .mp3 files for the MOTOTRBO sound effects (ie. Startup, accessory attached, accessory detached, busy, transmit, incoming call/message, etc.) for a project I am working on. I've found the startup sound but it always appears to be on very questionable...

Good day all, I wrote here a few years ago asking for help and it was provided by this amazing community. Over the past two years I have continued visiting and learning from those more knowledgeable than myself. I have been out of the Motorola game since 2018 but recently just got back and alot...

Hi I was wondering if I can enable Channel announcement on my XTS 5000r on Astro 25 Portable CPS 20.01.00. I have never actually programmed a radio in CPS before so is this something if I do wrong I can brick my radio or screw something up?

My department still runs HT750s. I got my software about a year ago in the hype of the pandemic. Just getting around now to messing with it. I am trying to program both of my HT750s. I got a cable for it (Radio to USB) and am trying to program it. Open CPS with no issue and connect radio to...

Good morning. I dont have a lot of information on this system. There is a school that the Navy sends people to but no one on my ship has been able to attend. We have Motorola XTS2500I radios and I have the ASTRO 25 programming software. Other than that info I dont have a lot. I know there are...

Hi, can anyone advise the exact specification of the Q400 P-Channel Mosfet transistor found on the Motorola GP380 main PCB? I suspect mine needs replacing but when searching for p-channel mosfet transistors, there are a number of different amperage and voltage options. Attached is GP380 PCB...

Hi guys, I'm looking at a UHF quantar repeater here (model T5365A), and I'm wondering what programming software is used and if it's possible to purchase a copy of it from somewhere. To be clear, this is not a "I want a free/cracked cps" request. Anybody have any ideas? Should I maybe just stay...

Using my APX 8000 and trying to transmit on an analog frequency the radio is creating a scratchy/windy interference noice when in a radio strap. It only creates the interference when walking around, the interference goes away when you stop. When I take it out of the strap the interference goes...

I had just purchased a used APX 8000 and was programming it to find that for some reason it won’t hit the repeater. I double checked to make sure the frequency’s were correct and they all are. If I use a direct channel then I can use talk around but you can’t hear other people on the repeater or...
