Yes. First you will need to know what is programmed in your newer RDV2020, both the frequency and PL code. Using the instructions in the XTN series user guide you can reprogram your XV1100 to match your RDV2020. If you are uncertain how your RDV2020 is programmed, contact your local Motorola dealer or the vendor who you purchased the unit from.

Here is the link to the XTN series user guide. See programming instructions beginning on page 18.

Best regards.

I have a motorola rdv2020 radio that works but doesn't work with the headset. I have tried different headsets. Any ideas?

We see this all the time. You tried the best test. So, it is the audio jack. Common failure. They can be repaired by a competent tech at a repair shop. VERY difficult to replace on your own. The part is cheap, the labor is high because Motorola does not want you (or us) working on those radios. Motorola has a flat rate around $115 (ouch) and our shop averages less than that, but they were not designed to be worked on. Next radio, contact us for a more repairable model. Free advice.

Can u program an xv1100 to communicate wi th an xv2100

Yes. The difference between the two is wattage. XV1100 is one watt and XV2100 is two watts.

Here is a link to the user guide where you will find programming instructions beginning on page 18 http://www.giantintl.com/RadioPDFs/Outdated%20Manuals/XTN_Series_User_Manual_E.pdf

The VHF frequency chart is on pg 25, and the code chart is on pages 27-28.

Is it possible to fix a non working PTT button on a RDV2020

The PTT button is one of the common failure parts. It is replaceable, but best done by an experienced repair center.

The following things can happen over time:
1) The internal PTT switch can wear out from frequent usage.
2) The user begins to press harder to get the PTT to work, bending the PTT switch further away from the external button the user is pressing.
3) Plastic diaphram, if any present, gets broken in half, and the external PTT switch doesn't work anymore.

Several companies offer flat rate repair on this style unit for around $85.

Best regards.

I have a Motorola RDV2020, when I try to write to the radio it says the memory is corrupted and to perform a factory reset. I tried the device reset with the software connection to no avail. Is there an...

1) You can try the manual reset by pressing the PTT, SB1 and SB2 simultaneously for 3 seconds while turning the radio on. Then reconnect the radio to your computer and try reading the radio. If you are able to read the radio, you can then reprogram the radio.

2) If the above does not work, try cloning a known good codeplug (saved archive of another good unit) into the radio without reading it first.

3) If none of the above work, your radio will need to be seen by Motorola or an authorized dealer with knowledge of the RDX series.

Best regards.

I have a motorola rdv2020 and after a few minutes stops transmitting. You can see the recieving light come on with the other radio, but no voice is coming through. After shutting it off for a few minutes...

It is possibly a bad or poorly charged battery. Try a known good battery and see if the problem persists. When a battery is failing the first indication is usually loss of transmit. It takes more power to transmit than to receive.

If the battery appears to be the problem, check your charger to see that it is working properly and clean your battery contacts with a pencil eraser prior to giving it a full charge. Then try the original battery one more time. If it still fails, replace it.

If after testing the radio with a known good battery you still have a problem. It is likely your radio is in need of repair. Flat rate repair is available for this type of radio. (Currently running $85.) Or if your radio is less than one year old, contact the vendor where you purchased the radio for warranty procedures.

Can i Program My Motorola XV100 (XTN series) To be a sanner??

No, your XV1100 is a one channel radio with a particular list of frequencies available. It can only do one frequency at a time. Sorry.

Here is a link to the user guide: http://www.giantintl.com/RadioPDFs/Outdated%20Manuals/XTN_Series_User_Manual_E.pdf

Will it work with a cb radio

No. CB's operate at the 27 MHz on 22 predetermined frequencies allowed for Citizen Band radios; and your Motorola XV1100 radio is a VHF 150-170 MHz radio with a set amount of built in frequencies to choose from, designed for business use.
