Ron, I am not sure of the model number, I'll check when I get home tonight, it has a large LCD display on the front, it also has indoor and outdoor temp with a wireless remote thermometer.
Yes it does mute and the end of MESSAGE, not MONTH, hard to type on the treo, sorry. It seems to work great, I mounted a DB9 on the back and fed audio off the input to the volume control. I have probed around to see if I could find a "COS" like alert signal but no luck so far. I also have brought out the 3 indicator LED lines but I am not sure yet what state they change to when on. It seems that I am hardly ever home when an alert goes off and when it does and I am home I don't really want to be working on or near the repeater because the storm is usually over us!! I will get and post the model number when I get home tonight. I know it is several years old. As for RS sales people, they left part of their slogan off... Remember... RS, You've got questions, We've got answers...Not necessarily the right answers but we'll make them up if it will make you happy!
