Luke;
If you are not already a member, there is a yahoogroup
called ar902mhz which is dedicated to 900 conversion information..
There is also documentation in the Batlabs site on the subject of
900Maxtrac Conversion, proably here too at repeater-builder.... Many
repeaters have been built on Maxtracs but I would also not say the
"best" way to build a repeater is with Maxtracs although it is "A"
way to do so. The 800 version maxtrac receiver ( using an 800 mobile
with talkaround capacity) is generally much easier to put on 902, but
there are a couple options of documented mods to move the 900 radio
to allow 902 rx... That function is not normally part of the designed
bandsplit of the radio....Doug KD8B At 08:23 PM 5/12/2007, you wrote: >I am working on a 33cm repeater for our group out here in Northwest >Oklahoma and I was told the best way to set this up was to use a 900MHz >Motorola Maxtrac but I do not know if this is so easy or the best way >to go.
