Yes they can be recrystalled and retuned for the Ham bands...but no they cannot do both...the receiver and transmitter bandwidths are way too tight (small range).

I posted the same thing in the Motorola group and I'm not sure it'll be answered there so I thought I'd post it here too. I have acquired a bunch of ht440's and ht90's. Currently crystled for service in the 154 mhz area. I checked out batlabs (and did a google search with no evail), and me not being too electronicly inclined (I can tune a radio, just didn't understand some of what they presented), am wondering if these radios can be rock'd for (and work well) around 146 mhz. And if so, in the same radio, these are 4 channel units, would they support a couple of channels at 146 and a couple at 152/159 mhz. I'm not gonna replace a bunch of parts...it ain't worth my time...but if all is needed is the correct crystal and alignment, then that's ok. I like the "brick" feel of these radios and I'd like to put them into service if feasable. I have a service manual also by the way. Ya'll please forgive me for posting here, but I hate to see "good" equipment going to waste in my basement. thanks Bob, GMRS WPVV845, Amateur KG4WAD, LMRS WPXC892 Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
