How do you program fips code in to the Sds200 .Do you have to enter a 0 in and then the 5# fips code? The radio will not let me enter just a 5 number code like 37051

Yup. My FIPS code is six numeric characters the first of which is 0. Without the zero, it would be different. Radio is smart.

All SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding) codes are 6 digits, and the radio has 6 spaces, you would enter the 037051 if you are in Cumberland County, NC. If you are not, or wish any other county in the US or Canada, you can always call 1-888-697-7263 and follow the voice prompts if internet is not available..

So, you answered your own question… and did not try six digits… which would have produced a positive result for you… omitting the need to post the question… just sayin…
