Thanks, Jim... Since this posting, I have discovered we actually need to transmit on 927, so I'm assuming that a modified 800 MHz radio is out of the question. (I was told that 902/903 is the input range for a lot of repeaters, and we CERTAINLY don't want to cause any grief, so.....)
I'm now finding out, too, that someone else within my organization has "scammed" the voter I was planning on using, so I'll be trying to scrounge one of those, too. Thanks again!

But at that they do need mods, mostly the front end helicals have to be changed, and the mods only work on certain models. I don't think there has been much success moving the transmitters up at all. Look in the files section and the msg archives for that group. -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
