I may sound a bit like a broken record here, but I really like Motorola GM300s and R1225s for these jobs. Particularly the 10W versions of both. Heat stays under control with a 10W radio much better than the higher powered ones (even turned down). On Oct 11, 2008, at 1:09 AM, tedsims

The older foreign looking radios have several stages of helical tuning in the front end mixers. Much better selectivity than the newer sm track tuned front ends. You could, of course, buy a filter for this but why? since the older units come with a good one. Interfacing with the the older

Lots of equipment can encode the 2+2 Quick Call format but since today's decoders are software based (counting squared off audio waveforms) instead of hardware based (mechanical reeds) nothing I have seen recently will accurately decode the format. Milt N3LTQ - Original Message -

The lack of helical filters in the front end is a concern, to be sure. How about GE Delta and Phoenix? I thought I spotted helical filters in some pictures online. These looks like more recent radios. Anyone using them? --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, rtc_0001 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
