I have two Motorola Talkabout T5700's and two Audiovox GMRS 1582CH's.
If I transmit from the T5700 it is received on the 1582, but if I transmit on the 1582 it is not received on the T5700.
Both claim to be GMRS. Is it that I am on the wrong channel range? Or is there some items in the menu's that I can fix to get them to communicate?
Hi,
Most radios of this series would have Interference Eliminator Codes. The codes
eliminate other
incoming transmission not with the same code (number). There could be
similar radios working on the same channel/frequency, but if they do
not have the same code then neither one would hear each other. This
does not make a channel "private", rather it limits what one can hear
on that channel to another radio with an identical setting of the code.
In some Motorola models, pressing the Menu button until the small
numbers/code flashes would enable them to be changed. To change, press
the + or - keys. Pressing the MON key or setting the code to Zero would
enable the radio to receive and sound off all incoming signals with or
without the code.
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post
back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

Thanks for replying. But as far as setting the codes, I have all radios on channel 7 and privacy code 2, and yet they have a hit or miss likelihood of transmitting or receiving to the radios of different makes.
Nothing in the menus seems to offer a solution to the compatibility issue.
