I have a couple of Racal 25 radios I do not want to discard but in the absence of a programing cable and three of them that won't allow programming I am reaching out to you experts!
I have three Radios 505A Flavor, 8.3 Firmware, in good shape but when booting they read access denied without any password prompt. I have tried all known passwords without success and feel a reset of some kind might be required.
In the absence of PC access to the radios, I am thinking it was a botched firmware upgrade or the like.
Can anyone shed light on their experience with this? The other radios I have seem to be bulletproof and ask for password prior to programming and flow smoothly through the FPP.
Any help would be appreciated. I would make a cable but the serial to radio cable seems daunting : (
So sad for such great old radios, much like my old Saber Rugged radios. Built to last for twenty years and phased on in ten years.
