(Changing the PL settings would apparently be ok). However, as has pointed out in another thread, changing the radio from narrowband to wideband would void the GMRS certification.
Midland radio programming 6 meter software#
Original from Midland: Īnd a general purpose cable is available from: ĭid you miss my post from 24-August? There is software that will do what you want and someone on MyGMRS (I can't find the post at the moment) has reported that it worked. But, I doubt it.įor those who want to pursue this topic, here are a few key links from the Facebook posts Any doubt that the MXT400 is a Luiton LT-590 on Prosac have been removed.īTW, I have no way of testing to see if the Luiton software will work on the Midland radio.The major limitations of the MXT400 (bandwidth and split PL) can be overcome.So, all in all I say there are two significant learnings here: There is an Optional Signaling option that is also disabled (DTMF, 2TONE & 5Tone).There is an option for voice scrambling, but it is disabled (and not allowed in GMRS).There is a compander option which might help when talking Wide to Narrow band.I noticed PL tone 69.3 is still missing, I did not check for other missing tones/codes.

(Many options between 5kHz and 50kHz)ĬHANNEL SPACING = occupied bandwidth (narrow or wide): 12.5, 20 & 25 kHz STEP = For scanning purposes, the change in frequency between activity checks. So, I was able to determine that the two settings of the most interest were defined as: One difference is the Luiton version includes help files. And guess what, they seem to be essentially the same, with some functionality removed from the MXT400 version. With the Midland software already installed, I then downloaded the Luiton software. In trying to answer this question, I returned to a post from in 2018 in a discussion which suggests the MXT400 is really a Luiton LT-590 with modified settings for GMRS certification.

First of all, is use of the software by consumers even authorized? If it would allow the customer to set the radio to operate in a manner inconsistent with Part-95E. Thanks for the additional information and the link.
