[Motorola] Syntor X9000 EPROM info

[KBØNLY]

Depends on which RSS and firmware you have!  The memory Eprom in the radio 
and control head is also a governing factor, it needs to be changed out for 
a larger chip to use 64-256 channels.  The 32 channel radios always had the 
smaller EEprom in them.

When i had X9K's in the mobile i had them programmed with up to 256 
channels.  There is a 32/64 channel version of the software and firmware, 
then there is a 128 channel version of both, and last but not least is the 
custom hack that someone made that allows 256 channels.  The only problem 
with the 256 channel version is that there was firmware made to go along 
with it that allowed user programmable non-priority scan of all 256 
channels, but i was never able to find that, so i could program in up to 256 
channels with the software using the 128 channel firmware in the radio but 
only scan that first 128 channels.  If you put more than that in the scan it 
would just start over with channel one, and if you tried to add any channels 
beyond 128 into the scan list it would just ignore them.

So i put the most important in that first 128, and anything that i seldom 
used would go in the top 128 as backup.

Do any of you Moto wizards out there know what's the max number of channels
(modes?) that
can be programmed into a Syntor X9000?

As I understand it, there's an EPROM that determines the number of channels
and stores the
channel info (XMT/RCV freq, PL, etc.).

I'm a newbie to this radio and can use all the help I can get.

Thanks, folks, and Happy New Year,

Dick
