Midland and Motorola radios.

[jcholcomb]

I have a pair of midland radios. I just got a pair of motorola radios and they will not work with my pair of midland radios. I can use the midland radios to talk to the motorola radios but I can't talk to the midland radios with the motorola radios. Any info would be helpful thank you.

Make sure that if you have subchannels or privacy codes, that they are set to 0 or turned off. It sounds like your Midland radios have a privacy code enabled.

From Zorak's "Radio Information for Airsofters":

A privacy code is an inaudible tone that the transmitting radio adds to the outgoing signal. Other radios can be set to filter out incoming transmissions and only let you hear the ones with the privacy code you chose. The restriction only exists on the listening side. Someone with privacy code zero set can hear any transmission on a given frequency.

Here's a link to Zorak's radio guide, there may be other information in there that could be of use to you:
