Hopefully I placed this in the right forum. I have a Motorola xpr3500e that I am trying to make work with Kenwood TK-D340 U. I have read the Kenwood and have found that they are running dual slot direct mode on all channels. Even the repeated channels. The repeater is an XPR8400. Why they paired that with Kenwood I don’t know.
I can make my trbos talk to the Kenwood on a simplex channel in dual direct mode however when I put the repeated channel into my trbo radio and check this, it completely grays out my transmit frequency. When I uncheck it, my trbo has a led light come on showing it’s receiving data, but no audio. The thing I’m stuck on is why does the Kenwood allow you to put a repeated freq. in dual direct mode but my Motorola will not? I need to get these two systems to work together.
The only other thing I can think of is that there is a privacy key of some sort on the repeated channels in the Kenwoods.
