vp8000

So I received my VP8000 and just received my programming cable via UPS. The VP8000 shows a screen saying "Connect to Armada for option programming," so I am assuming I should first start with Armada. Anyone know of a guide that walks you through how to start using Armada? Does one need to create...

My VP8000 has arrived (picking it up tomorrow) but did not come with a programming cable, so I need to purchase one. I have seen prices ranging from $155 to $54. Where have people had the best luck purchasing a VP8000 programming cable for the best price? I have read the proper part number is...

Is there any reason why a VP8000 would not be able to key up for about ~30 seconds after a radio from a different site finishes their transmission? Every other radio I have works (Moto and Harris) and I do not experience this issue when both radios are on the same site. It only happens to inter...

I have a brand new VP8000 with the KSC-52AK charger and KNB-L11x battery. When I charge the battery, it will charge like normal until it reaches 97-98%. Then, the charger flashes red and never goes green. I left it overnight like this with no change. I've tried removing and reinserting the...
