I cannot for the life of me get this radio in test mode. I have searched YouTube and the web and can't find anyone who seems to have been successful. I have downloaded both the programming software and the factory settings software. The service manual online says to hold color button but this doesn't work. Either with power on or while turning on while connected to either program. It really shouldn't be this hard. Thanks in advance for any help!!!
 

Well after a little dabbling and a lot of luck I figured it out. Need another piece of software called "factory_set" to access the test mode. Lets just hope I don't brick my radio. Mine is off by 30hz on USB so i need to try to adjust the frequency just a tad. Will report back shortly about how it goes. I will post the file and a video of how to access test mode once I'm confident I know precisely how to do it.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
