Motorola GP360 Programming Code

[deweyd]

I have just bought a motorola GP360 off a friend, its fixed to one frequency and has limited options.

i have a programing lead and wish to change this, although the radio is protected by a password, which neither of us can remember, is there a way or resetting the device and clearning the password? or is there a defult password this might be

thanks

My burning question is flat out...Can this be used in the US without problems?

Thanks

Older versions of the HT CPS you could just take a good codeplug, and write to the password protected portable, and it would not be protected anymore. This worked well provided you did not need to read the portable first, or the portable had not been programmed with a later version of CPS. I don't know which version big M figured this out and put a stop to it though. I wonder if the GP360 software is the same.

Do a search on fcc type acceptance, if that's what you mean pbragg. There has been alot of discussion on this. I think the bottom line is, is anyone going to bust you? As long as you are not using it on a frequency you shouldn't be, then probably not. The law however, says those units are not supposed to be sold over here.
