BellSouth 2250BK (22 Channels) 2-Way Radio - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

http://safemanuals.com/ let me know if i helped rate me please.

I was abel to make mine work I put one on chanel 20 then scanned with the other and pressed the ptt button on the unit on channel 20 until scanned one found transmition.

FRS frequency range: 462.5625 MHz to 467.7125 MHzGMRS frequency range: 462.5750 MHz to 462.7250 MHz

did you put it on the same channel

Hold the lamp button ( on the right side), for 2 sec. The symbol will go off.

The manufacturer claims a 2-mile range for these radios, but that is just a pipe dream. These are low power line-of sight radios that are described by many as "toys." Effective range under most conditions is not much more than 100 yards.

press and hold the light button on the right side until the key goes away

To turn off sound activation press the menu button 3 times to enter VOX mode. The VOX icon should be flashing, then press the down button till the number of bars dissappear. Press the menu button to confirm the VOX off mode. You also can adjust the sensitivity of the VOX mode by how many bars are displayed, less bars equal less sensitivity. No bars and voice command is deactivated. Hope this helps.

IT COULD JUST BE FAULTY OUT OF THE BOX THE TRANSMIT SWITCH COULD BE FED VIA A LUGIN RATHER THAN SOLDER CONNECTION AND IN TRANSIT THESE CAN COME LOOSE AND EVEN DISCONNECT COMPLETELY. I ADVISE TAKING THEM BACK FOR AN EXCHANGE SAVE ANY HASSLE.

The key shown on the display is a "Button Lock". Press and hold the LAMP+ button until the key goes away. Manuals for the 1010 are still available from WOOIL telcom

sorry we do not sell parts here.

If you can do minor soldering, you may be able to fix the radio. They have no parts available, so they are considered "junk" when they break. But if you do the following, you may be able to repair it: open radio, unscrew the housing and pull it apart. Take the circuit board and look for corrosion, it often looks greenish or white. If the radio has a lot, there is water damage. You may still be able to fix it. You've gone this far! Use a Q Tip dipped in rubbing alcohol and remove as much corrosion as you can. Let it dry. Take your soldering gun and lightly resolder each spot on the circuit board. Touch the tip, as soon as the solder turns liquid, remove it! I have fixedhundreds of radios and cell phones by doing this. But it may not work. It just takes your labor! Good luck!

Very likely a blown speaker. Those speakers do not stand up to weather well and may have gotten wet. The only solution is replacement. Since you cannot buy a speaker, you would need to buy another radio and use it for parts. Better yet, buy a working radio and use you old one for parts.

Please try to have the 2 receivers at least 20-30 ft apart. You may be overloading them if you are too close.

Nothing. You have already said channel, which is frequency and sub channel, which is called a lot of things. You are 99% ahead! My best guess: turn them Off and On. Then check the channel and subchannel again. One of the radios did not save the information or lock it into the memory. The On/Off cycle may save it and they will work! Let's cross our fingers. But do not hesitate to reprogram them as many as 3-5 times and look for a SAVE feature in the manual. Best of luck!

Decrease the sensitivity of your Radio by increasing the value of squlech level and check your bussy signal. Also change the place and see your bussy signal goes off or not. If not then send it to my workshop or your nearest service center.
