This requires the cloning cable # PMDN4060, which is available for around $15 (US dollars). The instructions for programming come with the cable. (Sorry, I was unable to find the instructions posted online).

    Enables cloning between two portable radios of the same model and major codeplug versions.

    Step #1 - Connect the two radios together with the cloning cable.

    Step #2 - Power up the destination radio.

    Step #3 - Press and hold the two side buttons at the same time on the source radio and then power up the source radio.

    ****Notes****

    Radio To Radio cloning is supported for portable models only.

    The source radios serial number cannot be blank.

    The source and destination radios generate a clone entry tone at the initiation of the clone operation. Upon completion of the clone operation, the source radio generates a clone exit tone, and both the source and destination radios reset.

    The source or destination radio generates a continuous tone, if an error occurs during clone operation.

    Works with the following radios:
    CP140, CP150, CP160, CP180, CP200, CT150, CT250, CT450, CT450-LS, EP450, GP2000, GP2100, CP040, PRO2150, PRO3150, PR400, P040, P080, GP68, VL130

Clone Motorola BPR40 with PMDN4060AR, but I'm getting a low continual tone from the slave radio from Ch 2 above

Even with a cloning cable, you cannot always clone. The source radio and receiving radio must (1) be the same exact model, (2) have cloning enabled in the software a dealer used when they were programmed the first time. It sounds like you are doing the correct procedure.

Can a RDM2080D pair with a BPR40?

If your BPR40s are VHF (model number beginning AAH84K), the answer is yes. The BPR40s can be reprogrammed to match your new RDM2080D VHF MURS radios. This can be done by an authorized Motorola dealer with a current software subscription. (If you cannot find a dealer, look us up online, we will be happy to assist.)

You might want to consider keeping your BPR40s around. The BPR40 has a more economical battery replacement cost (under $35), and is repairable/recondition. (currently $69 flat rate)

Your BPR40s are also capable of more wattage than the RDM2080, 5 watts vs. 2 watts. However, it should be noted the BPR40s will need to be programmed to the lower wattage when going to the MURS frequencies.

Best regards.

Green light stays on bpr40

If this is after programming your radio needs repaired. We see this when some BPR40s are reprogrammed. Take the radio to your local service center or send to a qualified repair center.

Have two bpr40 need to find out the frequencys

The BPR40 is a dealer programmable radio. The frequencies would need to be read out using Motorola proprietary software. The only thing you can tell from looking at the radio is whether it is VHF or UHF. Model number AAH84K... is VHF and AAH84R... is UHF.

My BPR40 transmits to one radio but can't respond ?

Check your PL/DPL settings among the radios. You may not have them programmed the same as one another. PL (aka private line) blocks out other users who do not have the same code as one another. Your radio which receives could be set with no PL code and it receives and hears every thing, so it would hear the other two, but not talk to them if they have a PL code setting.

Another way to check this is typically the dealer who programmed them will have the side button directly under the PTT programmed for Monitor. If you press this button a short press you should temporarily go into "open squelch" and you would be able to hear everything on your frequency. Try pressing this button on one of your "two" radios and see if they can hear the "one" radio. If so, you know it is a programming issue. (provided the button is programmed to Monitor). If pressing the Monitor button does not allow temporary communication, you have another issue.

If the green light on the radio seems to come on and stay on continuously, the radio is in need of repair. (Average flat rate repair on tehese BPR40s are around $79 currently at many repair centers.)

Best regards.

How do I connect Mag One BPR40 two way radio by Motorola to CP100 two way radio by Motorola? I already had about 8 CP100's and we just got 2 new Mag One's. Thanks.

The Mag One BPR40 is dealer programmable. You have two choices:

1) Reprogram your CP100s to match the new BPR40s. For this you would need to know what the dealer programmed the BPR40s to... OR
2) Take your BPR40s back to the place of purchase and request they reprogram them to match your CP100s. This should be a free service since you just purchased the BPR40s. They will need to know some settings from the CP100s to make the match.

Best regards.

Bought a used Motorloa Mag One BPR40 at a tag sale and then bought a new one. The used one looks like it was used by a business so it was probably "programmed." How do i get the two BPR's...

Your radios will need to be programmed by a Motorola dealer. The software used to program the radios is a Motorola proprietary software and not for sale, but most dealers have a subscription to it.

The loud buzzing indicates the channel you are on is not programmed.

Best regards.

I just want to know how to clone the motorola rdm2070d

You will need the RLN6303 RDX Radio to Radio Cloning Cable, or two drop-in chargers, or the multi-unit charge tray. Instructions for cloning are on page 51 of the user guide: http://www.weatherconnection.com/manuals/RDV5100.pdf Best regards.
