Pair'o'Kenwoods... you should be able to get close on your price. You might end up having to acquire software and cables yourself outside the grant, however.

Webdoc, wanna help a fellow/neighboring EOC operator out when/if you get your hands on any such gear?

I may not be a neighbor... but don't forget your homies down in Texas. :baby:

8 Calls come first....... :baby:

No no... 8 calls come just before 6 calls, which are at the BOTTOM of the list ...

Fucking hammies.

I can't count the number of times I've been at a hamfest to hear "OMGWTFBBQ!!!1oneonetilde!!! You can't do that!!! It's ENCRYPTED!!!"

47 CFR 97.305 states what general emission types are allowed in which bands. You're concerned with the ones that say phone (you can't play P25 in a ...

I'll be there... we'll have our normal little compound set up.

Multipler sells no less than 6 variants of the MX300 battery pack... doesn't seem to hard to get to me.

If anyone wants one, let me know... I can probably order one for you through Tessco.

Didn't go with CQPSK? All of the Moto P25 gear supports it... I know of at least one system that uses it for their outlier IRs. ???

By "didn't go with CQPSK" I meant "Didn't adopt CQPSK for the spectral efficiencies mandated." Yes, they use a form of QPSK for simulcast systems, but the ...

Austin/TC? I thought they used CQPSK on the two simulcast systems and C4FM on the IR sites.

Yeah, duh, brainfart. Anyway, they ARE using CQPSK...

I'd rather see P25 Phase II use OFDM rather than the current FM nonsense. You could get 30kbps without much trouble, high spectrum efficiency, and it'd be as robust as hell.

Yes, and it would require class AB amplifiers for the finals, would piss off about 50% of the PA input as heat and reduce ...

DSTAR is for amateur use - no encryption capabilities.

The feds are also very interested in the IVD aspect (integrated voice and data)... imagine doing building assessments following a tornado, and every transmission coming back having latitude and longitude right along with the voice? Makes all the mapping a whole lot easier.

P25 does that with ...

Moto actually sells a configuration with a 6-pos charger with only 1 display... now, mine has 6 displays because I'm pimpin like that

, but you really only need 1.

Syntrx is already working on this particular project.

Did I mention that I had access to the *first* D-STAR system in the United States outside of Icom's hands? One of the local hams made inroads with them... they had DSTAR on the air about, oh, two years ago.

CDMA data for cell providers is great - unless a natural disaster has wiped out your ...

Damn, that's funny... several states have purchased DSTAR infrastructure on grant. A demonstration locally of data (low-speed and high-speed) has been done for FEMA bigwigs, who are considering a large purchase. Oh, and the feds have largely backed off on this "everything-must-be-P25-for-grants ...

Check out the ASTRO forum over on the Batboard... specs are in a sticky from The Pager Geek.

Ray - thanks for the info, though I'm not sure how much of this is actually directly targeted at the whore flashes or how much is simply a result of remapping the codeplug (as tends to happen with each major version release).

Escomm, thanks for being a giant dick and earning this thread the lock ...

1. No.
2. Even if you get the programming done, a high-split radio won't lock reliably below about 443MHz. The sensitivity will also fall off sharply.

So let me see if i understand this right... I buy a XTS3000 with a low flash on the codeplug read from the radio, i can get another codeplug from the same model radio with a newer flash and blow it into my radio and the features from that flash will now be in my radio?
The flashport features ...

I LOLed. Mad points if you tweak the firmware to show that display natively.

Allrighty then...

I unlocked this thread with specific conditions, at Shaun's request. We're off in the weeds again. Time for a trim...

XTS3000 - Keep your Batlabs hating out of my forum, k? Thxbye.

I'm trying to be nice and keep this one open. Back on topic, guys... otherwise:

OK, I've cleaned up this thread at Shaun's request. Here's the deal:
1. TECHNICAL DISCUSSIONS ONLY. In general, you shouldn't be saying anything about anyone in here. If you want to piss and moan, go to General Bullshit.
2. The moderator is always right.

Enjoy your intermod-desu.

'tis difficult restraining the /b/tardedness, no?

Only one place I know of around here sells it, and it's down in freaking Rosharon . Seriously. Biggest city in the entire state, and I gotta drive 20 miles to get it. Yet I can get Jarritos and Mexican-bottled Coke at any number of locations within easy walking distance. :ve4uo:

20 miles? Oh ...

Close enough for guvmint work.

Josh - yes.

I'll be there.

You nerd.

Eh, don't worry about me. I suspect I won't be around.

I dunno if I'll stick around that late. Depends on what the g/f wants to do, if she comes along, etc. I'll play it by ear.

And, yes, I'll run mix-mode too.

I'm indifferent about BJs... it was pretty good food, but fooking expensive. I think VX is correct about Twin Peaks. Bone Daddy's wouldn't be bad... what else is in the area? Far enough away to evade the Hamsexy OMF (that's old man funk for you n00bs) would be good.

Hamsexy comms on VHF only for me ...

Oh yeah.

COM-120 isn't bad... 2975 isn't bad either. Neither is as intuitive as the 8921 - in the case of the 2975, that's largely due to many more available options. A friend of mine has used a COM-120B for years and is fairly pleased with it.

Here's a big test: a friend, who had never used a service ...
