Motorola For SP50 7.5v 1500mAh NiCd Battery 2-Way Radio Questions & Answers
I CAN HEAR THE DISPATCH
First, make sure the battery is fully charged and red LED TX indicator is on steady as long as you are holding the PTT button. If the red LED blinks while you are transmitting, the battery is not charged, or is bad.Otherwise here are some common problems with the SP50 that can cause that issue:Bad PTT switchInternal microphone is badSpeaker/microphone is bad-if usedJacks are badTransmitter power amplifier is badAntenna is badContact a local dealer for proper diagnosis.
How do i program my radfius sp50
Take it to a Motorola 2-Way Radio Dealer. They will determine if the channels you want to use can be programmed into that older model radio. The Radius SP50 is no longer supported by Motorola so software and programming cradle are no longer available.
I put in a new
A beep when keyed up can mean a low battery.
1) It is possible your new battery did not take its initial charge, it can take as many as 3 chargings to 'jump start' a new battery. You might try charging the battery an addition 2 full charge cycles.
2) Try the new battery in another SP50 radio to see if it works, or test with a volt meter, if available.
3) Double check the battery is the correct HNN9018 or equivalent NiCd battery. If you are using an after-market battery, check to see if it is a NiCd. If it is a NiMH battery you will need a fast rate charger to charge it up. (On an SP50 the fast rate charger has a blue button on the tray which needs pressed to put it in fast charge mode)
4) This may sound silly, but check to see you installed the battery the correct way. On a Motorola battery the STOP sign would not be visible when installed correctly.
5) If all these items do not solve the 'new battery' problem, you should return the battery to the place of purchase for an exchange.

You might want to talk to the local radio dealers in your area. A repeater system may already be in place to work with your radios. The radios themselves would need to have a channel programmed to match the repeater. If what you have is an annual event, it would likely be relatively inexpensive or free to use an existing repeater.

Looking to build a two way radio system.
You will have to have a vehiclular repeater that is in another band than the mobile so if your portable hand held radios are on UHF then I would advise a VHF high band repeater set up.
It will have to be a cross band setup meaning it will recieve UHF and transmit on VHF and also the opposite direction.
It will have to be programmed with CTCSS or PL of some kind to avoid interference and don't forget it will need to be FCC licensed for those frequencies if it is in the Business band.
Some mobile radios can be wired up through a mini controller and run that way if it is compatible.
Low volume on speakers
You have posted this question under the heading for the Motorola SP50 battery pack. I will assume you are referring to the SP50 radio. Check your radio's grill to be certain it is clear of debris. Was this radio previously working correctly? If so, that eliminates a programming or narrowband-wideband issue. If the radio is new to the group, you might check the programming and verify if the others in your workgroup are narrow or wideband. Two common failure parts which could effect the sound coming from the speaker would be the volume potentiometer (the part your volume knob sets on top of), and the speaker itself. It is possible your radio may need repair. In most cases this style radio is repairable for approx. $85 flat rate.
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.
