ASK byte moved in MTS2000, can't find it

[radicalbill]

I think I need SP1 on my machine to get it to take the 4.6.1, I am going to go work on that and let you know if that fixes the not installing problem

 

[radicalbill]

I installed SP1 and now 4.6.1 installed, and the first version of the jedi software you sent now runs

I added a little bit of code to calculate proper checksum instead of hard-coding it. There's no checking for Firmware version. But otherwise it is pretty fool proof. It doesn't hurt to hit the fix button again. In fact it is encouraged to make sure it took off the ASK Bit.

It is very fast as it is only writing two bytes.

SendSbep(new byte[] { 0xF5, 0x17, 0x00, 0x02, 0x82, askByte });
SendSbep(new byte[] { 0xF5, 0x17, 0x00, 0x02, 0x89, checkSum });

All the radios have the 80 at 282 and 74 at 289

Did the updated program above remove the ASK?

The program removed the ASK on all 5. You are amazing. I programmed one with the new channels

I tried to clone the rest, but it says they are not the same codeplug, so I may have to do all this by hand, unless there is an easy way to copy all the conventional personalities and channels from one codeplug to another using MTS2000

In any case, thank you. I never would have been able to do this without you.

Very good to hear! My pleasure and it was great to see it actually work for someone else.

I don't have much advice on the cloning. I re-purposed our PD/FD radios to 800 mhz conventional about a year ago. I think I had to fudge the system key to get the old defunct system off. One by one. Then after, I was able to use the clone wizard for updates.

I look forward to providing more updates to the program and making the source available on GitHub. It was fun to do non-work stuff again...

I am amazed by the knowledge so few people have. It is people like you that literally keep the lights on and the world working.

And the people that the govt probably wishes knew a lot less.

Thank You

Will this software you wrote work on the MCS2000 radios as well ?

I know the location is different for the ASK in the MCS2000

I don't have that model, but I am thinking down the line, if I need to remove the ASK on those, it would be great if this works for those as well

Thanks again
