Hi,
Do you have the user manual for this unit?
If not, join yahoo group specific to Motorola GP300 radios, they will helpyou with your query and you'll be able to freely download a copy of the user manual.

The battery pack for the GP300 radio is a factory sealed unit. There are no user maintainable parts. Sorry!

If you are wanting to remove the battery from the radio, look along the sides of the radio near the top. There is a spring-loaded tab on each side. These need pulled down and held while you slide the battery down and off the back of the radio.

Best regards.

The best price I found for your batteries is on eBay. Here's a link to a current listing:

to change the frequency of your radio,you need programming cable/programming sofware,but this is only for authorized Motorola dealers,other options go to your nearest motorola dealer,along with your licensed frequency ,they'll program it,thank you

If the radio will not power up with a known good battery the radio is in need of repair.

Best regards.

clean all the contacts on the back of the radio and the batt. One contact is pos. one is neg and the last one is volt info/charg.

MOT GP 300 need RIB box and the software for the programming.
Give a google search for the home brewing of the RIB box.
Software is licensed and have to seek the support of a MOT dealer/ service.

I recommend you **** can the USB cable and get a RIB and Rib cable. The GP300 Motorola software is available online for free (I can give you the web page address) and works just like the real Motorola software. I have programmed at least 20 GP300s with it with no issues. A RIB is the only way to go. Everyone has nothing but trouble with USB cables. Particularly with newer radios like the CP200.

Hello hougies1,

Yes, what you describe is possible, although it may require some custom set up. You would need a receiver and circuit set up at the gate to receive the signal from the GP300 and activate gate control mechanism. You would also need some sort of signalling device (such as a DTMF touch tone pad).

There is an optional DTMF pad for the GP300 or you could use an external DTMF tone generator and just hold it up to the microphone of the GP300 to send the tones. Additionally there are several out of the box receiver solutions that include activation circuits that could be tied into your gate control. The Ritron TeleSwitch immediately comes to mind (Ritron has a whole line of gate control products) but other manufacturers such as Motorola have solutions available as well.

I'd recommend contacting your local professional two-way radio shop and explaining to them what it is you are trying to accomplish. I'm sure they could give you some guidance and pricing.

Best Regards,
Ken
