Motorola Talkabout T6550 (7 Channels) 2-Way Radio Questions & Answers
One of the 2 radios will not work
Check the programming of the Frequency, interference eliminator Code, and Qt filter (if any). Be certain all the radios match exactly. If you then still have a problem, set your Qt filter (if any) and your Code to zero (or off). This will return your radio to basic operation and they should work together.
If not, check your batteries. Trade the batteries from one radio to another. Does the problem switch to the other radio? If so, you need to replace the batteries.
If none of the above solves the issue, you may have a defective radio.

What is the range of the Motorola walkie talkies?
Height and placement of the antenna determines range.
Typically speaking a handheld radio will get up to 2 miles line-of-sight. If you are talking in and around concrete, brick, metal, or in-and-out of a building you could expect only 1/4 to 1/2 mi. Conversely, if you were on top of a mountain and you could see 25 miles into the valley, you could talk as far as you could see with no obstruction.
All this being said, there are some things you can do to make certain you get the best range out of your radios. First, always hold the radio upright with the antenna perpendicular to to the ground (straight up). Tilting your radio to the side can reduce your range by as much as 2/3s. Second, face the direction you are talking. Lastly, wear the radio higher on your body with the antenna upright. Height and placement determines range. (Keep in mind, even your body fluid will absorb part of the range.)

Motorola T6550 pair.
I can see where this feature can seem somewhat inconsistent. But if you think of it like a phone ringing, it is easier to understand. Once you have answered the phone, the phone stops ringing. And the person who called you never experiences a ring on their end.
VibraCall® Alert
Page 26: VibraCall is a vibrating alert that notifies you that your radio is receiving a message. This is useful in noisy environments. When the alert is on, the radio
vibrates once every 30 seconds when you receive a message on the channel and
code you set.
• To turn vibrating alerts on, press menu until the vibrating radio symbol is displayed, then press the plus (+) button to display the letter Y for Yes.
• To turn vibrating alerts off, press menu until the vibrating radio symbol is displayed, then press the minus (-) button until the minus symbol (-) is displayed.

I need help to dismantle a motorola radius sp10 2 way radio
Remove the battery, slip a small screw driver into the slot at the bottom of the radio between the outer housing and the battery tray, gently pry up. If your radio has a pair of battery contacts on the exterior they will come up with the tray. Be gentle, and do not disturb the Mylar ribbon that runs down the back of the tray. Once the tray is removed, using a frame removal tool (shaped like a squared letter U) you slip the tool in the channels on either side of the radio where you removed the battery tray. Then slide the tool upward until it meets the two plastic ears. The tool will slip under the ears and using your tool you can push the component board out the top of the housing. If your radio has an 8-dip-switch private line board, you may want to watch you do not damage or dislodge it in the process.
Can the Motorola factory replace the battery in the H730 headset?
It is possible to have the battery in your Motorola H730 headset replaced, but it would likely need to be done by a third-party repair service as the battery is not typically user-replaceable.
Motorola does not offer an official repair service for the H730 headset, so you may need to find a third-party repair service that specializes in repairing Bluetooth headsets. Be aware that third-party repairs may void any remaining warranty on the device.
You can also consider purchasing a new headset if you prefer not to have it repaired.
I have two older Motorola Walkies Talkabout FR60 wont send or receive and a T5820 with the rubber broken off the antenna is is cost feasible to fix or not
I believe for the FR60 walkie-talkies, if they are not sending or receiving, the issue could be related to the antenna, battery, or internal components. You can try replacing the batteries and/or antennas to see if that resolves the issue.
As for the T5820 walkie-talkie, if the rubber on the antenna is broken, it's likely that the antenna itself is also damaged. In this case, you can try replacing the antenna with a new one. Antennas are typically available for purchase online or at electronics stores.
In terms of cost, repairing older walkie-talkies like these may not always be cost-effective. If the repairs are extensive or require replacement of major components, it may be more practical to purchase new walkie-talkies instead.
Below are options of the options of walkie-talkies you can buy;
Motorola sliver headset won't power on even when the green lights are solid
There are a few things you can try to troubleshoot this issue with your Motorola Silver headset not powering on:
- Make sure that the headset is fully charged by connecting it to the charger for at least 30 minutes.
- Check the battery contacts in the headset and charger to ensure that they are clean and free of debris.
- Try resetting the headset by holding down the power button for 15 seconds.
- Try a different charger or charging cable to see if that resolves the issue.
- Make sure that the headset is not in pairing mode.
- Check the headset manual for any information regarding troubleshoot, or if there are any specific instructions for turning on the headset.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be a problem with the headset itself and you may need to contact Motorola for further assistance.

Can you use the Motorola XPR 4550 as a police scanner?
The Motorola XPR 4550 is a two-way radio, not a scanner. Scanners are devices that can listen to a wide range of frequencies, whereas two-way radios are designed for communication between a limited number of specific devices on specific frequencies. However, you can use a scanner to listen to the frequency that the Motorola XPR 4550 is transmitting on.
Motorola XTL5000. encoding is working but decoding is not. If you encode a different tone on another radio it still hears it.
El problema de decodificaci?n de la radio Motorola XTL5000 puede deberse a una configuraci?n incorrecta de la radio. Aseg?rate de que la radio est? configurada correctamente para la codificaci?n y decodificaci?n. Por ejemplo, aseg?rate de que los ajustes de codificaci?n sean los mismos tanto para la codificaci?n como para la decodificaci?n. Tambi?n debes asegurarte de que la radio est? configurada en la misma frecuencia de la otra radio. Si esto no soluciona el problema, prueba la antena para asegurarte de que est? funcionando correctamente. Si la antena est? bien, podr?as necesitar reemplazar la placa de circuito impreso (PCB) del receptor para solucionar el problema.
