These types of radios generally won't make that kind of freq spread, if
tuned for 146 you may not always get factory spec performance with every
unit, but it will likely be close. You may be able to get some degraded
operation at 152 (couple microvolt receive and low TX power, but very
unlikely you could push it to 159 and have anything.

Greetings
OK...OK...this is off topic, I'm sorry. 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
