Long time lurker but decided to make my first post today.
Often times I read many threads of people asking how to do this, how to program that on Motorola commercial radios and nearly every time it seems that people tell the poster asking the questions to give up, your not qualified, its beyond your capabilities, don't do it. I know that there is a lot of underground information out there on how to do certain things with these various radios but what I have not seen is anyone explain how to go about gaining the information and experience by legal above the board means.
So my hope for this thread is that it will serve as a kind of information portal for people who are "certified" to work on and program these radios to share what it takes to become "certified" or proficient. Maybe share the information about how you got into this hobby/line of work, why you decided to get trained/certified/ the process you took to actually learn this IE: Motorola factory training, Apprenticeship in a certified repair shop. Things like that.
I hope that this can serve as kind of a road map for those of us who have an interest in learning the software/systems/techniques involved to be competent in working on/programing/operating the commercial versions of these radios.
Again let me be clear. This is for those of us who want to take the correct and legal steps into this realm, this thread is not meant for someone who just purchased/wants to purchase a radio and program it for personal use and it is not meant for those who do not want to put in the time and effort to study/learn/take advice/seek factory training in becoming proficient at this.
