Joe:
No, not really. I should have said that it was
a Motrac-like radio since I characterized it as
a later version of motrac. By my understanding and
experience, there was little difference between
a Motrac receiver and a Motran receiver (FET in
the rf preamp instead a bipolar, etc.) There
were, of course, differences in the transmitters.
If I understood Matthew's e-mail, he said that
it had no tubes but used Motrac cables. While
I have experience with Motrac mobiles and
base stations, I only have experience with
Motran type base stations, (i.e., MSY type stations
which had solid state 10 - 12 watt exciters). I
thought that the Motrans used Motrac cables.
Since he said it had no tubes, it sounds like he
has a Motran.
