If you would settle for a 2C, I think I have one. Are you looking for UHF or
VHF?

I doubt it. The GMN6147B mike that is specified for the MTR2000 station is
an optional mike for the MCS2000 mobile radio, which normally uses HMN4069E,
HMN4072E, or NMN6210D mikes. Since these mikes are not used on MaxTrac,
GM300, or M1225 mobile radios, there is likely to be a
Hi, I've got a new pager issue that has come up on a tower where we have a VHF
repeater. It's about 400 watts erp and 15 feet horizontal distance and 4.3 and
4.7 MHz away (it switches).
I'm thinking of using one bp/br can that will have the notch wide enough to
cover both channels and one pass
You may have to put a can on the pager transmitter. Pagers use square waves
which are very rich in harmonics and need to be filtered at the source. This
may be the only way to remove the problem. I speak from experience.

Thanks for the input. I don't think that is possible (read practical) since
it's a two channel pager. The two pager frequencies are about 500 KHz apart. So
there is only one PA and one output in the pager box.
I may have to call DCI or someone to get a window filter.

Agreed...
On the other hand as long as the charging voltage is not too high general
venting should not be a problem.

I am also somewhat hesitant to put any electronics in the same
enclosure, although the enclosure is well vented (with screens to
keep the buggies out).

I saw someone had used a HP3551A TIMS to set up repeater audio levels. I
have a used HP3551A also, but it recently stopped working. Wonder if anyone

I wonder if the paging company has made a change. Did they used to have
two separate transmitters, now only have one that switches frequencies?

Its a new pager that switches frequency, just recently put up. Fortunately,
we're all on good terms and yes, we're a freebie ham group. So that's why we
thought about a window filter for them to get it down 30 or 40 db and we'll do
the rest on our end.
The original question remains...

If your batteries are truly VRSLA/AGM (Valve-Regulated Sealed Lead-Acid,
Absorptive Glass Mat) units, you have nothing to worry about- IF the solar
