I have a Vertex 3200U mobile radio and it has a problem where the screen blinks the channel name off and on and when you key the mic it beeps 3 times and says error on the screen. Any feedback would be appreciated.

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Has this radio ever worked,
or this happened the first time you ever powered on?
Sounds like the VCO is out of lock.
Are all programmed frequencies within factory spec
for the version you have?
That model came in at least three versions:
A 400-430 MHz
D 450-490 MHz
F 480-512 MHz
You are lucky in that the service manual is
available several places on the web in pdf format.

Classic synthesizer failure.
If loading a default cloning file of the correct bandsplit won't recover it, then chances are the radio has a hardware failure.
