Hello Everyone, I have some U band FM92 radios that I am wanting to get going on 70cm. I have the FM91 manual, and not the FM92 manual. I have a few questions....
G'day Don, 1. The hardware code must match what is actually intalled in the radio. Don't go by the labels, as many radio's have been re- configured at some...
Hey guys, I have two Philips FM series radios, an FM900 and an FM92 I have a receive problem on the FM92, it transmits fine but seems to be deaf on receive. It...
Hi All, Just new to the group, found it last night whilst looking for info on the radios. I have been back through messages from a couple of years ago and saw...
Hi Brendan, there is a place in box hill you could try the are in box hill south their name and address is aa radio services their address is2/11 clarice rd...
Thanks Steve, One thing I forgot to ask, can you have the radios programmed to transmit on some frequencies, and just listen on the others. Was thinking about...
Hi Brendan, The label probably means that all the channels are in there - just not according to the statewide order. However, unless the radio was modified...
Hi again Brendan, Transmitting is not advisable unless you have permission from the CFA, and it's unlikely they will let you use what is now an obsolete and ...
Mark, I had no intention of transmitting on CFA frequencies. I am a volunteer down here and if I really need to use one I will just use the one on the truck....
Hi Brendan, Sorry to sound a bit negative, but we get a lot of people on this list that think they can just pick any old frequency and use it, or program ...
Mark, No worries mate. That answers my question anyway. I found a bloke today and he has my radio at the moment checking it out. And I only had to go ten...
Hi folks, chasing up some info on "how to" and probably "who can" program eproms with a new freqency. I already have the eproms but the people who I'm supposed...
Hi all, Because of the number of enquiries to this group to program EPROMS maybe a list could be compiled and placed on the group web site as a file. Group...
So far as i know, fpp only works with specific programmers, not many of which are around. This is no big problem, just run fpp, then when it goes to burn the...
... In a word, no. Philips never released a windows version of fpp as I'm pretty sure production of these radio's ceased before windows became a popular O/S,...
I'm pretty sure Philips wasn't even Philips when Windows 95 came out..... By then the PRM-80 was the box to have and Philips had undergone a management buy-out...
Gday, I'm in the process of tuning my (originally U Band) fm92 to UHF CB. I've programmed the eprom as a W1 band, with frequencies going from CB negative 4 to...
This may seem a stupid question but why did you program the eprom to W1? All mine were programmed as U banders and the software allows this to happen. Seems to...
I've read in various places that you should program it for the band you are using it in. I will try again with it programmed as U, see if it makes a...
While your problem with the VCO could simply be that it won't tune far enough due to manufacturing tolerances and component aging, but there are some other...
Does anyone have a schematic or component values etc for FM900 VCO s. I know they vary slightly between bands. Are they all the same with different coil and...
Hi Dan, I've never seen anything published on any of the hybrids in the radio apart from what is in the manual on some tone decoder modules. I traced out the...

Hello Everyone, I am using FPP to set up some FM92's. I am using a DOS window in Windows XP. All seems to be working OK, except I can't get the FPP program to...
Hi Don, FPP was made in the dark ages before Windows became popular, and was designed to drive a custom Philips Label printer as far as I can ascertain. It...
Remember, also, that when you install a printer under Windoze it asks a question about whether the printer will be used to print form DOS programmes. Saying...
