It may be possiable to replace the LCD module in this control head with the GM380 control head module (P/N 5164313B02) and get it back. The 4 line control head on this will work on the Waris radios, but the fixed icons for the LCD are different. These are tetra models for the EU market. This is not really a waris radio, but the build is similar. These are 5 Tone or MPT radios and come in different models, determined by the control head. They will do analog voice and come in many different models determined by the control head. These are the series most people see here in the USA. Theoretically this should work, the parts line up. A default code plug would need to be edited from an HT1550 for low-band. What might be interesting would being able to convert the LB GP340 to HT1550 as the GP's all have the 512k Flash ram. After this I flashed it to R05.18.01 using the normal tools. It took me trying a couple default codeplugs to find one that works. The 5 tone HT's all use 512k flash memory, not the 128k of the HT750/1250 (1550 is 512k), and I was able to flash it using the unofficial kit, then put a default codeplug in it. As they use the euro CPS for 5 tone I wanted to get it going as a US version with MDC and newer firmware. Note I got a GP340 in LB2 when I was in Germany. These have EMEA (Latin America/export) versions known as GP

HT1250ls - limited version of the HT1250, normally missing MDC on conventional HT1250 - One line display, multiple channels up to 128 I have a list of all US Model numbers, Tanapa's, features and codeplug versions Motorola items Boards, Completed Radios, Frames, Hence, one will see Tanapa on all kinds of As it goes through the Build process, it will finallyīecome a Radio, ( or completed accessory ) and thus a Model / Serial Number ( or Part Number ) will be assigned when completed. What happens during the manufacturing process, the Tanapa is assigned to items like aįrame or Partial item number. Tanapa is a Japanese term But a Motorola adopted the word from the Japanese manufacturing industry meaning Kit or Partial Assembly The board Tanapa can be different and is what is in the codeplug FDB. Radios are selected by model and the radio assembly is called a Tanapa/TANAPA. mobiles will support any control head, even the 4 line display from the GM380/1280.ability to flash the firmware between EU Select 5 calling and US MDC models (not done too much on this) Even MPT should be possible.You can fuck it up so it won't boot, but it can be recovered. Flexibility of band edges when re-aligned properly.4line portables can be flashed to do FPP/edit mode without special battery.If you load up a bunch of MDC and other crap, CPS will limit adding new channels. 255 personalities only limited by the 16kb of eeprom space.The cool things about these radios is any of the limited ones can be "changed" into the highend, or even more. The codeplug layout appears to be the same for most US versions of the radios, but there are some which are different. The majority of modification of these radios to amateur service is done with modifications to the codeplug. This is the same area the programing data from CPS is written in, but CPS is unable to change it. This is simply a packed (hex) data written into the eeprom chip of the radio containing tuning, feature and programing data. What I've found is the radios features are determined by the "codeplug" settings. I've not seen any of the European ones, but I've been working with the US versions for FM service in ham radio. Over time, I've gotten more into these with the CDM1250/1550 and other waris series radios. They modified ok, but the way of doing it as suggested left much to be desired, and the DTMF pad didn't work and the radios were narrow band only. This was originally put together when I got into the HT1250 200 MHz radios. 13.1.3.4 Professional Portable 4 Line Display Firmware.13.1.3.3 Professional Portable Non-4 Line Display Firmware.12.1.1 Well I was fucking in the codeplug and wrote bytes it does not understand.1.3.1 AAHLN9725C - Voice Storage Option board.
