Hi,
My programming cable for my MTS2000 came in last night. I got it working on my XP machine, and I was able to read/write fine.
I originally thought there was an issue with the way the scan feature was programmed, or even the actual adding the channels to the list on the radio (I'm new to model III's) but it turned out both were fine. All of the channels I added via the scan-program feature on the radio showed up on the list in CPS.
Now that that problem was eliminated, I was able to eliminate a programming error from trying to figure out why the radio won't scan.
I will add a channel to my scan list, put the radio in scan mode, switch to another channel (even in the same zone), then take my other radio and key up on the channel that I have in my scan list, and nothing happens. I know in the past, I've put a channel in the scan list and wait for the nightly tone test, and sure enough, another radio receives it, and this one doesn't.
Any ideas what the issue is? Starting to drive me nuts. I'm really hoping it's not an issue with the radio itself.
