Several features of the CP200 radio are capable of being programmed.

The CP200 model of the Motorola Radius series of radios includes up to 16 different channels pre-programmed through the dealer. In some cases you might not want to use each of the channels. Reprogramming the Radius CP200 to manually delete unwanted channels, or change options such as the radio power level, only takes the push of a button.
