Motorola XTN 2-Way Radio Questions & Answers
I HAVE A XTN SERIES 2600 N I CAN'T GET IT TO WORK
Here's a link to the user guide. If your radios are both UHF or both VHF they should be programmable to match one another. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0ahUKEwi41fis6eLJAhUF5CYKHTgFAFQQFggdMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.buytwowayradios.com%2FProducts%2FMotorola%2Fmanuals%2FXTN-series-manual.pdf&usg=AFQjCNFIOd86CBLE45ZNgdfTwEtH6ZhRsA&cad=rja

What is the radius of the Motorola XTN446
2 miles line-of-sight. Any obstacles you put between the radios will reduce range. Talking from inside a building to outside you would expect a range of 1/4 to 1/2 mi.Best regards.

1) Check your frequency and code. It is possible someone has changed the frequency to an adjacent frequency and they are communicating only due to being in a close proximity. Here is a link to the user guide:

2) Check your battery. A old or defective battery can exibit this type of problem. Trade the battery with a known good radio and see if the problem still exists, or moves to the other radio.
3) Check your antennas for damage or missing end caps. A bad antenna can cause this type of issue, even if simply by getting corrosion on the coils from a missing cap.
4) If all the above check out fine, your radio is in need of repair.
Flat rate repair on this style unit is currently around $69.
Best regards.
THE OFF AND ON KNOB
The on/off/volume potentiometer is a common failure part on most radios, including the XTN. The only solution is to have the radio repaired. Typically this style unit can be repaired for $69 flat rate.
Sidenote: On the XTN it is best, when turning on the radio, to turn the knob to at least 50% volume before turning it back to your desired setting. This helps with the initialization of the radio. Also, it is best not to run this style of radio at full volume, as it can cause other receive issues down the line.
Best regards.

There are several ways:
1) Customer Programming Software (CPS)*
Allows users to perform various programming
functions. Plus, the CPS software provides access
to new features such as Radio Reporting to
manage cloning and radio profiles, Manager Lock,
Power Select, and Time-Out Timers.
* CPS is available as an optional accessory, including required USB cable.
2) Easy Cloning
Quickly copy settings from radio to radio with
either the Radio-to-Radio Cloning Cable or the
Multi-Unit Charger accessories. (Both sold
separately.)
You should be able to purchase any of this software/equipment from your retailer where you purchased the radio.
Best regards.
I need to program
Here is a link to the CP100 user manual, it is the sister radio to the XTN, and programs the same way.
http://www.thekidshuttle.com/ABC%20Docs/CP100_Manual.pdf
Refer to the bottom of page 20 to get started programming.
Basically you hold in the PTT and the MON button while turning the radio on. Continue to hold them in until it stops making noise. This puts you in programming mode, and you can use the menu button and the + and - to walk you through reprogramming the radio.
I need help to dismantle a motorola radius sp10 2 way radio
Remove the battery, slip a small screw driver into the slot at the bottom of the radio between the outer housing and the battery tray, gently pry up. If your radio has a pair of battery contacts on the exterior they will come up with the tray. Be gentle, and do not disturb the Mylar ribbon that runs down the back of the tray. Once the tray is removed, using a frame removal tool (shaped like a squared letter U) you slip the tool in the channels on either side of the radio where you removed the battery tray. Then slide the tool upward until it meets the two plastic ears. The tool will slip under the ears and using your tool you can push the component board out the top of the housing. If your radio has an 8-dip-switch private line board, you may want to watch you do not damage or dislodge it in the process.
Can the Motorola factory replace the battery in the H730 headset?
It is possible to have the battery in your Motorola H730 headset replaced, but it would likely need to be done by a third-party repair service as the battery is not typically user-replaceable.
Motorola does not offer an official repair service for the H730 headset, so you may need to find a third-party repair service that specializes in repairing Bluetooth headsets. Be aware that third-party repairs may void any remaining warranty on the device.
You can also consider purchasing a new headset if you prefer not to have it repaired.
I have two older Motorola Walkies Talkabout FR60 wont send or receive and a T5820 with the rubber broken off the antenna is is cost feasible to fix or not
I believe for the FR60 walkie-talkies, if they are not sending or receiving, the issue could be related to the antenna, battery, or internal components. You can try replacing the batteries and/or antennas to see if that resolves the issue.
As for the T5820 walkie-talkie, if the rubber on the antenna is broken, it's likely that the antenna itself is also damaged. In this case, you can try replacing the antenna with a new one. Antennas are typically available for purchase online or at electronics stores.
In terms of cost, repairing older walkie-talkies like these may not always be cost-effective. If the repairs are extensive or require replacement of major components, it may be more practical to purchase new walkie-talkies instead.
Below are options of the options of walkie-talkies you can buy;
