I have a 100W MICOR Base station on 52.525 (and one on 29.600, but it was originally a 27.350 MHz business band base station, so it required no modifications). The 6M one was originally on 47 MHz, so it required the receiver and exciter modifications to make it tune up that high, as I've had to do with all MICOR, MITREK and some MASTR II radios that were originally in the 42-50 MHz range. I removed a turn off of each coil that wouldn't tune properly, then it tuned properly and worked just fine. No one has ever come up with parts value changes to optimize the PA deck, so I left it alone and took what I could get out of it (about 90 watts).

I kind of figured as much. I'll just do the conversion instead of fooling around with it. Anyone have any luck reusing low-band (42-50) base antennas on 6? If so, what brand/model? I have access to a few but I don't want to waste time with them if they cant be used. Thanks.

They were unable to find any short cuts. I think Mastr II radios may be a little less complicated to move up.
