Motorola CDM1250 Retuning

[sfd119]

A lot of self proclaimed radio experts in this thread. Forcing a new code plug in won't help OP.

Is the repeater narrowband or wideband and does your CDMs follow that? Got any signalling enabled? Wanna send me the codeplug, I'll be happy to take a look at it and see if I see anything.

First test I would suggest

I suggest keying down on the radio you are having trouble hitting repeaters with.
Take another radio or a scanner in CSQ mode and listen on the repeater INPUT(where the radio
you are transmitting with should be transmitting).

If you hear the radio transmitting where it should, you can try to put tone squelch or DPL, same as the repeater would need, and see if your receiving radio can hear that for your second test.


Another question, do you get any audio at all out of your transmitting radios speaker (including tones)?

I tried to do what you mention about getting a different code plug from within the software, for some reason no matter which in I click on it all says
" Unsupported Model "
There was about 4 that have the name model number but ends in with A,B,C and D. All gave me the same message of unsupported model.

You must be selecting the wrong sample code plug. Double check and make certain you have the correct sample with the correct tanapa. There is one in the folder that will work. I've seen this fix may folks problems in the past when their codeplugs get completely hosed or when buying ebay specials the have not been de-programmed. That is why I suggested trying it. It may or may not work.

For some reason I get an error message saying unsupported model with both radios that I try to do it with.

I, again, offer some reason. The answers to the questions can help.
