Does anyone know what the cut off date of manufacture for the HT1000 is that divides determines which HT1000 is capable of being narrowbanded or not? Thanks!

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

It's based on the model number. If it ends in DN, it's fully narrowband-capable.
Doesnt the CN versions narrowband also?
I have a couple of AN versions active on a narrowband system. The DN versions are the only model that will do 12.5 KHz steps as a standard. With the other models, there is a setting in the RSS that has to be set to 12.5 KHz spacing.
For what it's worth, the earlier versions of the MT2000 have the same option.

MT2000 has to have a F/W version of 2.11 or later to support narrowbanding. Generally, if the serial number is later than March of 1998, an MT2K will do all channel steps.
OP, take a look at this thread and understand the different elements of what "narrowband capable" means. Are you TXing or RX only?

The A,B,C models will do 12.5k modulation, They do not go to all the splinter channels.

You answered a thread request reference to the HT1000 radio. I asked how a person can determine if the radio is or is not narrow band compliant. You replied that if it had a DN at the end of the model number, it was narrow band compliant.
I appreciate your response and now I must come to you once again with some more questions. I have over 45 HT1000 radios and I have inventoried all of them. I see that I have some that have a DN at the end. I also have a large number of them with a BN and a CN at the end.
I need your help. Can these radios be narrow band or are they too old? I know the cutoff date is April 1998. I went to the FCC web site where you can type in the FCC number and then it can tell you registration information. On that page, to the far right, is a date. Is that date the date of manufacture?

All your HT1000's will do 12.5Khz narrowband. I see your from erlanger...we get interference from erlangers dispatch, lol

I have some HT1000 DN models programmed to 12.5 frequencies. narrowband is not per channel like some , in the HT1000 it is radiowide or nothing. They been working good on 12.5 as can be expected from narrow operation. I use mine mostly for Radio Rentals,renters ruined my CP200 and P1225 too much

Wrong, 12.5 is not all or nothing, you can select wide/narrow, from each channels options in rss
