Hi RFguy,
thanks for your quick reply. The Pageboy II was also capable of 5-tone decoding, which was used all over germany for example.
But you may be right anyway, that it used a different coding type. The manual says "decimal digital", what is also known as "Motorola EIA". It is similar to 5-tone, but faster and has a slightly different format.
In addition to the small housing shown on the manual, there is an extended version which i guess is also a Metro Pageboy. It has a seven digit display showing the called capcode (or what else?).
Attached some pictures of one of those i own. Does anyone have some more information about this extended version? As far as i found out, there is only one codeplug. But then it is not clear anymore, which information is shown on the display....
Thanks in advance!
Joachim
