Hi guys,
some days ago a friend of mine gave me one of those old genesis Motorola radios- HT 600 .
He knows I like this staff , so now I have a new toy in my collection . The radio is UHF band, 99 channels.
Bandsplit is 438-470 MHz, I believe just wonderful for HAM band.
What problem I face with it, is that I can't program out of band frequencies on it . The RSS doesn't accept frequencies under 438,000 MHz . I had some " talk" to it, and 438,000 is now 430,000 , but still the same problem . strange staff. The version I talk about is r03.01.00 , RSS for MT1000 .It supports 99 channels.
other versions I have are : r02.03.02 & r02.01.00 , RSS for HT 600 ,they accept any frequency within the HAM range 430-440 ,without problem, just warning about, but the number of channels are only 6 , I don't see any option of adding channels on this versions.
Just wondering where I might be wrong ?? I never play before with HT600 . But wish to use this radio for HAM, as it looks very reliable and strong.
Would appreciate your help.
Cheers,
Boris
