James, Greetings. Glad you found a solution. We just saw your June post and would like to swap the other way (R1 for R2 receiver/exciter). I am changing frequencies on my fire department Quantar (153.xxx input going up to 159.xxx, tx staying at 154.xxx). If you're still interested in the swap, we'd love to hear from you. Otherwise, tell us more about your success story, as maybe we can get the same results tuning up-band. Thanks.
