I really believe that my Minitor II performs better than the III or IV. It has been more durable and has picked up in places where a III or IV wouldn't.

Maybe it's just me...

I have both a Minitor 2 and Minitor 4. I like them both really. The 4 receives fairly well and I like the look...

But I can't deny the dependability of a Minitor 2 though.

At least WAU 718 has several repeaters :wink: 8) We're still using DTMF to talk into our center.....

Sucks! :cry:

Switches do seem better than the III, but the receive sensitivity is worse than the Minitor II.

Give me my old Minitor II any day.

I was disappointed when I found out that the VHF Minitor IV's had relatively narrow bandsplits, and wouldn't accept most 12.5 kHz spaced channels.

Other than that, I guess it was ok.

Well since they came out with a fix for the tone seq. problem and scanning of tones it is a great pager. The clicks you can feel more of but we don't use pagers no more.

Thanks to Nextel and trunking we no longer need or use them.
