Motorola XTL5000. encoding is working but decoding is not. If you encode a different tone on another radio it still hears it.

El problema de decodificaci?n de la radio Motorola XTL5000 puede deberse a una configuraci?n incorrecta de la radio. Aseg?rate de que la radio est? configurada correctamente para la codificaci?n y decodificaci?n. Por ejemplo, aseg?rate de que los ajustes de codificaci?n sean los mismos tanto para la codificaci?n como para la decodificaci?n. Tambi?n debes asegurarte de que la radio est? configurada en la misma frecuencia de la otra radio. Si esto no soluciona el problema, prueba la antena para asegurarte de que est? funcionando correctamente. Si la antena est? bien, podr?as necesitar reemplazar la placa de circuito impreso (PCB) del receptor para solucionar el problema.

  3. Carefully remove the back panel or cover of the scanner to access the internal components.
  4. Locate the input/output port on the circuit board inside the scanner.
  5. Carefully disconnect any existing wires or cables that are connected to the port.
  6. Connect the barrel pin jack to the circuit board using the appropriate wires or cables. Make sure to follow the wiring diagram or instructions provided with the jack to ensure proper connection.
  7. Secure the jack in place using the screws provided, or by soldering the connections if required.

    I kenwood TK-2000 radios. when I read the radio, all the frequencies listed are vhf frequencies.but when I program a vhf frequency it says it is out of band it can only accept 400 to 440 mhz.

    Based on the information you provided, it seems like the Kenwood TK-2000 radios you have may have been programmed with the wrong band split. The TK-2000 is available in both VHF and UHF frequency ranges, and it's possible that the radios you have are actually UHF models, despite being listed as VHF frequencies when you read the radios. To check if your radios are UHF or VHF, look for a label on the back of the radio that specifies the frequency range. If it says UHF, then the radios can only accept frequencies in the 400-440 MHz range. If it says VHF, then the radios should be able to accept frequencies in the VHF frequency range. If you've confirmed that the radios are indeed VHF models, then it's possible that the band split settings may need to be adjusted in the programming software to match the specific VHF frequencies you're trying to program. I recommend checking the manual for your programming software to ensure that you have selected the correct band split settings before programming the radios. If you're still having issues, it may be helpful to contact Kenwood customer support for further assistance.

    Chrysler 2013 300c uconnect bluetooth is not working showing " Bluetooth pairing not successful". I can't even add new device.

    There are a few things you can try to troubleshoot this issue with your 2013 Chrysler 300c's Uconnect Bluetooth system:
    1. Make sure that your phone's Bluetooth is turned on and that it is in pairing mode.
    2. Check the Uconnect system's settings to ensure that Bluetooth is turned on and that it is set to discoverable mode.
    3. Try restarting both the Uconnect system and your phone to see if that resolves the issue.
    4. Check the vehicle's manual to see if there are any specific instructions for pairing a device with the Uconnect system.
    5. If the above steps don't work, try clearing the Uconnect system's memory of previously paired devices, and then try pairing your phone again.
    6. Check if the software of the Uconnect system is up-to-date, if not update the software.
    7. Try deleting all previously paired devices on the Uconnect system, and then try pairing your phone.
    If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be a problem with the Uconnect system itself and you may need to take your vehicle to a Chrysler dealership for further assistance.

    Hi, please update your power source and move your device away from anything that deals with using frequencies like other radios, microwaves, active walkie talkies or antennas.

    If you have the data for a gs3000 scanner on one PC, could you transfer that data to a new PC

    It appears you can. Normally you load the software to the new PC and then copy the data file to USB and transfer it. It would be a file in USERS. Then reboot the computer. https://www.google.com/search?q=gs3000+scanner+on+one+PC%2C+transfer+that+data+to+a+new+PC ..

    Can I use a Furuno FSS1503 without antenna tuner?

    Question edited to what I think you thought you were saying. I would think the answer is no. This is a high end marine radio by the best maker. It looks to be part of a two piece set up. Single Sideband is used when you are in the middle of the ocean and is made for distance. I will edit your other post and leave it up in case anyone else wants to add anything.
