Can I use the model N1671A with the mvta cradle for an XTS5000? I am wanting to boost the transmit power to 15 watts like our previous setup.

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.

No - The MTVA cradle and N1671A are not compatable with an XTS5000 series portables.
The MTVA cradle is for the MTS or MTX series portables.

Will this work?
How about a NTN8560F cradle (fits the XTS 5000) with the control unit/amp N1671A (from an NTN1340A that went with an MTS 2000)?

What band is the XTS 5000 and what band is the control unit/amp N1671A?
The N1671A is a generic model number - there should be an option number
on a tag on the N1671A and that is what determines what band it covers or
if it is a non-band specific model(no rf amp model).
If the XTS5000 and the amp are the same band you may be able to supply
power to the amp and run a rf cable from the NTN8560F cradle to the amp
and a rf cable from the amp output to the antenna.
