Motorola gp 63

I was out at event with my Nokta Legend at the weekend!

My first detector was a Radio shack in 1988. I think it had three dials, one for Volume, one for Sensitivity, and finally one for Discrimination, Ferrous one way, Non Ferrous the other and All Metal around the 12 o'clock mark. And the Red Button in the handle tip.

There isn't a manual available, but this post explains what the red button does and sounds the equivalent of Ground Balance / EMI Cancellation to zero the meter.

Entering Programming Mode
Press and hold Push to Talk and Monitor for 3 seconds while turning the radio on. The
radio beeps and displays PROG, the channel number flashes, and the frequency
(indicated by FREQ) and code (indicated by CODE) display alternately.
Use the MENU and the + or - keys to change the programming. More detailed instructions are on page 28 of the manual.
Best regards.

Here is the user manual with the step by step instructions: http://www.wd8iel.net/Library/[email protected]

sounds like this radio is in 440 band and you won't be able to input any frequencies lower than 4300000.00

MOT GP 300 need RIB box and the software for the programming.
Give a google search for the home brewing of the RIB box.
Software is licensed and have to seek the support of a MOT dealer/ service.

Batlabs at http://www.batlabs.com/2way.html (Hand Held Radios) has the GP-68 users guide(Operation Guide), on the right side I think what you might be asking is in "Basic Operation 2", if not look into the Programming section below it.

Go to http://www.batlabs.com/gp68.html the manuals here should get you going. if not find someone with a frequency counter. this is alot easier than getting software for the radio.

Here is a link to download the user manual for the GP68 http://safemanuals.com/user-guide-instructions-owner-manual/MOTOROLA/GP68%20RADIO%20TRANSMITTER-_E

On your first radio, the one we've been discussing, I believe you have the DPL code set incorrectly. Your radio will go up to the number 126, but this is not the DPL code's number. It is simply a numbering system.

If I read the chart correctly:
DPL 205 equals the number 072.
DPL 023 equals the number 043.

Disclaimer: This numbering system listed in the user guide does not follow any common numbering system. I have other TPL/DPL charts which differ. The above reference is only based on what I have read in the user guide.

I am confident if your radio worked previously at another job site, using other frequencies/PL codes, that your only issue at this time is programming.

As for your unlock issue on the other GP68. Your radio may be in need of repair. The internal button is possibly wornout or has been depressed too far, and is bent on the board beyond the point of functioning.
