  1. In addition to MIchael's suggestions above, since the radio has dual receivers, have you tried using both the A and B sides of the radio? Is the problem common to both sides? If not, it would suggest an internal problem with one side of the radio (or perhaps a problematic setting), but if so, it could still be internal to the radio, or it could be an external problem (antenna, etc.).

  2. That's true, however, I've come to the conclusion that any used radio I pick up is getting a new antenna, for the price and guarantee it is the right band antenna/working order, wrap that into the purchase price of the radios when I make my decision to buy. I did pull the trigger on that 7550e, I also order the CPS last night. Lets see how long it takes for that purchase to process.

  3. The Anytone's have always had the capability to change the talk group of a digital channel on the fly - and I use that functionality occasionally. Mostly though, I like to create individual digital channels for each of the talkgroups I commonly use on a particular repeater. This way, I can simply simply use the channel knob of the radio for selecting my most-used talkgroups on the current repeater - and I use 'zones' button to select different digital repeaters. I usually reserve one channel on each digital repeater as a scratch-pad for on-the fly talkgroups that I'm not worried about maintaining. For analog repeaters - I create a zone for each analog network, and a channel in that zone for each individual repeater.

    OK: Always helps to let us know your city and state (Midwest is a large area!); from research it seems you are near or in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Go to your Channel 25, which should be labeled Rptr-17 (462.600) Go to Page 49 of your manual and follow these instruction to go to Menu-12 and enter the Transmit DCS frequency of 464; Do NOT enter a receiving frequency at this time. You should now be able to use the MKE 600 repeater. Report back your results:

    I, for one, would be excited. Are they truly wide band? Or is it just a blubber to ruffle up your your-tub audience?
