Motorola xts 2500/5000 question

[radiotech92]

with the fpp function enabled and it has the q52 package in the code plug will it do wideband in the radio and if you read it with the astro 25 software will it let you program it in wideband for ham if it has the q52 package in the flashcode?

Yes, as long as you don't have the 12.5 kHz item in the flashcode. For Astro 25 and APX radios, narrowbanding is enforced by the flashcode, not the CPS. Even then, it should still work properly on amateur frequencies as they left those to be wideband.

Run your flashcode through THIS website
It will list all the features on your radio

How would I look for that in the flashcode. Sorry, I am very new to the p25 world for ham

That would be option “Q507 12.5KHz FCC Mandate”

If you post your flash here, we can tell you exactly what options your radio(s) have, including if it’s been messed with(some options do not co-exist together)
