Here's a pretty good deal for $294 shipped. A Q-split XTS5000R (ruggedized) with battery, IMPRES charger, and speaker mic. It's an Aussie tagged radio, but the P/N is the same as NA units, so there shouldn't be any issues with codeplug programming. They look to be in really decent shape!

Morning Kyle & Everyone: Just a quick opinion from us gang here in South Central Minnesota. The best Hand Hand Helds are the ones that have FPP programability in it....or other words -- Program THE repeaters you want on the fly includiung DCS/PL or even NAC numbers.
This saves you from being tied to a programming cable and a PC in my opinion.
If you have a question, let me know.

Hello all,
I have successfully?read my XTS 3000 Model II HT (bought an old Dell Laptop running XP). It appears that the radio is configured for trunking and I do not have the knowledge on how to turn off what needs to be turned off to make it usable for Amaterur radio. I cannot even save the code plug since it has "invalid fields". I think the quickest way to fix this would be to load a code plug from another XTS 3000 that has been set up for amateur radio. Does anyone have a code plug that I can use to overwrite the trunking configuration in my radio so I can start setting it up properly?
Thank you, Dave Ventura, KE0NA

Hello Dave,
?
Are you able to read the codeplug from the radio then email it to me?
?
I can try to redo it for you.

Thanks,

Thanks Mike,
I got the invalid fields cleaned up (so I could write it out), and was able to configure one analog and two Astro channels, I think scan?lists are set up, but the three position toggle and other items are still a mystery to me. I put my DMR ID in the Personal ID field (a unique number that should work for P25, correct?). Also, why is it writing?out a session log? I turned off security, which got rid of the Key Lock error. Trunking is still there, but I am afraid to mess with it.
Thanks again, Dave, KE0NA

I'd be interested in a pointer to where I might find CPS for the XTS3000.
Here's what I'm using for my XTS5000 radios
Also, if anyone is looking for batteries, let me know. I might have a couple I can spare. 73

Does anyone have an Astro 25 codeplug for UHF in the Twin Cities they'd be willing to share? I have an XTS5000 I'd like to program, but I'm completely new to P25 still have much to learn about this CPS. Thanks in advance!?

I'd also be interested in that codeplug. I would like to merge with my AZ codeplug and having all the data in one place would be nice.

Hello Kyle,
I have an Astro code plug for my XTS 3000 with all the P25 metro repeaters and a few analog ones. It is a work in progress. Maybe we can learn together :-).? There's a breakfast gathering this coming Saturday in St. Anthony at Fat Nats Eggs for digital ham radio enthusiast, maybe we can meet there to discuss?

Unfortunately I won’t be able to go to the breakfast this Saturday. It’s been quite a while since I’ve attended that DMR breakfast and I need to change that. Is Fat Nats still every-other Saturday? ?
