RIDs: 2264375 to 2264385 were all were sending data grants every 60 seconds. Seeing 2 to 6 RIDs on local site usually on Mondays and Fridays and one Tuesday.

I tried turning the radio off and reprogramming it again and now my laptop will not recognize the radio. It says it’s a failure when I look at the Device Manager on my laptop. The radio also has deleted channels from zones and scan lists. Basically it’s moved channels into random zones and scan list. Does anyone know of a way that I can reset this radio from the buttons on the radio? Thanks. View article »
