Can anyone answer a few [in-depth] questions regarding XTL programming with the latest CPS?

Throw them out there.

Im not sure Ive got the latest version but should be close.

1. Scanlists appear to be tied to a personality. I thought I could get away with having just 3 personalities. One for Astro digital Tx, one for Analog Tx and the third for Tx inhibit. Doing that limits me to only two scanlists. So it looks like the best strategy is to create a personality for each zone..? That's fine but what if I have two zones with all Marine VHF and Railroad VHF freqs. Is there any way to get off the 15-limit scanlists?

2. Can someone confirm that when a channel personality is set to ASTRO digital (for Tx) then you cannot transmit via Non-Astro while using that personality? (And vice-versa...)

3. Can we rename the personalities, scanlists and zone descriptions in CPS? (Would really be nice to label these...)

Yes both your first questions are correct. Drives me nuts as well. I actually have several personalities for a couple of my zones. Although Im redesigning my lists right now and going to a regional list where I have a digital and an analog zone for each region.

Id have to do some looking at your third question. Though if you can rename them with a right click of the item..

No to your third question. You can by upgrading to APX

Yep figures. I almost went with the APX1500 but price was sort of a factor. I own the XPR5550 but DMARC is pretty dead so replaced with it something more useful. :(

You can modify the CPS to support 15 scan members.

ASTRO25 R20.01.00 Mobile CPS: (PatMob.exe)

ASTRO25 R20.01.00 Portable CPS: (PatPort.exe)

Sorry Kids, we don't discuss the buying, selling or modification of CPS or RSS.
