XG-100M and DMR

[prcguy]

DMR was not the point. Anything compatible between a few Harris radios in digital.
I like the notion of 220 Mhz, there is a TIII system I would like to eavesdrop.

I'll throw in a TYT DMR handheld so you will have a compatible radio and you can retire all those old Harris radios. Lets get this trade going!

You do know P25 C4FM is not the same as Yaesu C4FM..

In your features list above you only have Encryption Lite (ARC4/ADP). Your P7100 will not do ARC4.

Also, just because you can select it in the software doesn't mean the radio will do it. If you have the Wideband Disabled option then you will get an error on the radio when you select a channel with an incompatible option turned on.

I get no errors, but conventional analog is low audio on P25 analog so the bandwidth looks to be automatic.
I am not much into Yaesu but do know a good bit about C4FM.
Encryption is no issue being bench test radios. Not yet anyway.

So you can do P25C, Phase I & II, as well as ProVoice, but no 37 AES or even 14 DES. I think 62 is single key AES, so if you have 37 on your P7100, you could use AES between them with applicable commercial license.

Nope, the 7100 lacks AES but does have DES.

Tel ya what, I have a good 50 Harris radios and a good number of Moto. I do hope to get rid of a bunch
XG-100M M7300 one P7100 one 700Pi one M7100 and one Orion low band are my test platforms for now.
Everything else is up for grabs. You got the first call.

I believe for the Unity's specifically, 37 covers both AES & DES (multi key for each). 61 for ADP/ARC4 is the only it does not include.

You’re totally right!

My XG-100 has ARC4 and single key DES
61 and 62 respectively.

 

[2154]

Single key is different. 62 would be single key AES, single key DES is 53.

For the love of the the radio gods the XG100M supports the following.

Digital Voice
P25 conventional. P25 Phase 1 Trunking, P25 Phase 2 Trunking each requires a specific feature code. The radio supports these in either the CH100 Touchscreen, CH721 or CH731 HHCH configuration. The radio also supports DES and AES encryption and ARC40 (ADP)

ONLY with the CH721 or CH731 will the radio ADDITIONALLY support legacy EDACS, PROVOICE (proprietary IMBE vocoder) or very old school VGE digital voice encryption over analog). If you use the CH100 control head you LOSE EDACS and PROVOICE.

THERE ARE NO OTHER COMPETITOR DIGITAL VOICE STANDARDS SUPPORTED - NONE NADDA ZIP. NO NXDN, NO ETSI DMR, NO ANALOG Trunking.

NO the radio does not support OPENSKY

Further, the XG100P (legacy, ancient and discontinued) has NOTHING in common with the XG100M (still current for specific contracts) other than a slightly similar GUI interface. The radios share ZERO HARDWARE.
