The main difference is the encryption, on the ver 1 it was software based (non FIPS IIRC) and ver 2 uses a hardware UCM. There was also a few other minor changes but don't know off the top of my head.

Also if it has the preselector installed they are only 4 megs wide, you may need to re tune it.

I understand what you are saying, but the radio is programmed just like my Yaesu radio on ham radio repeaters with different input and output frequencies. When the unit is in the DIRECT mode it will TX the same freq AND PL/DPL (or CSQ) as in the RX side. The radio needs to have the DIR key programm...

Just reprogram it with a DIR key.

For 110 Watt I would look for some Kenwood TK790H units. For Motorola a PM1500 would do the job.

Any thoughts on a replacement transistor for the 33P68's used in the UHF 403-470 boards. We have several of these in Ham service and a couple had some PA issues. I know it is a depot exchange repair at Motorola but maybe out of our budget. Any thoughts here! Johnny S. There is a service manual for ...

it sounds like it may be set to narrow band.

The stubby VHF antennas are white, I would assume that is what they are with some discoloration.

Gary is correct in regards to Astro units, most of the time will not work in digital mode very far out of band. Astro25 units do not have this issue.

They are both built by Itech http://www.itecheng.com/ so I would assume yes if the firmware supports your batteries chemistry.

They used to be only $4.20 dealer cost, I see they are now $17.00. That is a bit of a price jump.

You do know the KVL4000 is NOT for programming RF channels, correct?

Jim

I'll throw out one more gotcha on these things. You said coverage would be in the close proximity of the truck and that is basically designed for. With that in mind, the squelch in the SVR200 should be set rather tight to reflect this. The reason is that anytime the repeater detects a carrier witho...

So you know what this means, if you're a HAM, do NOT use this CPS or let anyone else use it on your radio. I imagine a F/W update will soon follow. Sucks if a radio goes to the depot. Sucks for us part 97 users. just request the patch that will allow 25KHz channels. I wish they would have released ...

From the information Ive gathered from a friend this install is all jacked up: Its suppose to be like this TK-790H out to 1602 In 1602 In to Roof Antenna SVR-200 out to 1604 In 1604 Out to 1/4 antenna Both filters are to be tuned to same frequency that the handheld will be talking to the repeater. ...

n7maq

The NOTCH filter (of the SVR's freq) should be on the TK790, the PASS filter (also on the SVR's freq) should be on the TK790. So both the notch, and pass should be tuned for the same freq. I have SO deputies using their SVR's up to four miles away when they get on their ATV's. The mobile is a HP TK7...

Keep in mind there is NO power control below 146.00Mhz on a high split Maxtrac, I don't know about the GM300 but I bet it is the same. You will need to address that or you will kill your PA in a short time.

Pyramid will update the unit to narrow band (basically rebuilt it if needed) at a very low cost, I want to say $125.00, or 150.00 for the end user.

It is a flash option, so it will need to be ordered thru Motorola, or enabled at an s-record level. You may or may not need a f/w update I did not see where you had posted your f/w revs. If you have the correct software tools you can go to p25.ca and learn how to edit the s-record and FDB.

You can look for a legacy Spectra, they came in m/c configs. I would expect one could be had for a very low price. You may need to post a WTB ad.

The ham RSS that I used did not require any VCO tweaks to work in two meters (on the R2 radios) and it would give 255 channels. RXFE did need a re-tune (it is best to sweep it), and with a preamp they were great. The units I had had firmware that would allow 64 channels in the scan list.

What software do you have? Is it Astro CPS? If so Rev 2.x is older, but that does not mean it will not work, but if the radios have been programmed with newer CPS you will get a "codeplug to new" error when try to program it. Now the second thing is your programming cable, you said "S...
