Apollo Gold Pagers.

Are CFS and SES pagers very different?

I'm pretty sure it's the same make and model...

The pagers are slightly different in use but do the same job on the same network; noting the programming software and interface jig are are completely different.   
I have programmed the SES Alpha Elite pagers many times but have not had a chance to play with the CFS Apollo Gold pagers. (need a couple of damaged CFS ones to open up and use as jigs to find out their operation.)

I was issued with a Alpha elite pager and these don't allow you to have different alert tones for responses or info messages, it is quite annoying.
