xts 2500

Dear People of the Radio Reference forums, I was wondering if the XTS 2500 was capable of doing Tactical Public Safety, where the radio will send a burst of P25 at the end of transmission with an identifier with it. I've heard of fire departments in cities like New York and Chicago using this...

I've been trying to find the post on batlabs for the breakdown of what each flashcode option does but can't seem to find it. Does anyone know what the Q182 Enhanced Radio Control Protocol does? Is this for trunked systems?

Alright folks... I've got a few doozies here. I'm on the hunt for an inexpensive VHF radio. Found an XTS2000 on eBay that I really like, however I'm having some hesitations about pulling the trigger -- As far as programming it, that is. I cannot find the programming software for it anywhere...

Hi Everybody! I have a xts-2500 that I would like to set up for QC-II Paging, I have set everything (I believe) properly, and it still won't kick the radio to alert or unmute. Any input is greatly appreciated! Thank You In Advance!

Hi folks, I was looking recently at those old NTN8560F vehicular adapters, or the newer NTN8560G. Very cheap to find on ebay and would be pretty nice for my 5000. However, I have some 2500s and I was wondering if anybody has every tried using one with the vehicular adapter. I assume the size...

Is there a significant difference between an XTS1500 M1.5 and an XTS2500 M1.5? Or an XTS1500 M1 and an XTS2500 M1?

I recently purchased a Motorola XTS 2500i in 7/800 P25 for the Ohio MARCS system. The radio was programmed by a government affiliated company, due to the radio needing a specific ID. The radio is extremely quiet when receiving transmissions. It almost sounds as if the radio is turned all the way...

I have an XTS5000 and an XTS2500. I noticed that the XTS5000 gets a garbled voice and sometimes the transmissions get clipped. The XTS2500 seems to work fine. This leads me to believe that the 5000 needs a tuning. I'm new to the tuning/alignment world. I have a buddy, that has helped me a great...

I did not buy my XTS2500 directly from panter, when I got it I noticed that the case was bowed out and exposed the gasket. Upon my discovery I opened the case and noticed that the metal piece that holds in the keypad was not sitting correctly. I corrected the mistake and now I am concerned about...

Hello, We currently use A25 UHF in WV. My agency is wanting to alert groups of mobiles and portables over our trunking system. I am currently able to page individual radios using astro25 from an XTS2500 Model III using the keypad to enter the target radio's "Call List ID" number. This works...

So I'm hoping someone can help me out here. My dept uses mostly all conventional UHF channels, however for interop reasons we have to add some P25 digital channels to our radios now. I have the radios almost programmed to where I need them. However I'm having issues imputing the NAC's for the...

Hi Everyone, I remember reading on here somewhere that it was possible to transmit quik call tones from the XTS 2500. I cannot find that thread for the life of me. If someone could explain how to set it up in cps or could point me to the proper thread that would be a huge help. Thanks
