Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Motorola High band base (tube type)


>   In the storage loft at our local volunteer fire depeartment sits an
older
> Motorola High Band base unit.
>   This is a big monster by todays standards, cabinet maybe 5 to 6 feet
tall.
>   I didn't have anything to write down the model number.
>   At a glance, it almost looked like GE Prog line strips, but thinking,
> they are a bit wider strips.
>   All tube of course, and most likely still has the crystals set up on the
> fire frequency (154.3XX). Unknown whether it is working or not.
>   Vintage maybe from the Twin V days?
>   The person who showed it to me seemed to think it was worth some money,
> but to me it would only be good for the cabinet.
>   Someone would have to make an offer, and maybe pick it up. I'd bet it
> weighs over 400 pounds?
>
>   There are also what looked to me like GE prog line units, possibly AC
> powered, some had the control unit on the front.
>   plus a number of other radios sitting there. the only one that looked
> interesting to me is a mastr II mobile, 110 watt 66 split, unknown
> operating condition. May or may not have cable and head with it.
>   I'll try to find out more later.

>   I dare say the base and prog line units are wide band compared to what
we

>   These are in Imperial texas, which is a 60 mile drive from Odessa, 30
>  from Monahans or Fort Stockton
>
>   I'm not as familiar with the older Motorola equipment, but being as it
is
> all tube, as are the Prog lines, it might or might not be of interest to
> someone on the group.
>   The base would have to be shipped freight, or picked up. And even
freight
> would cost due to its size and weight. Looks like twice or more the weight
> of my Mastr II repeater that is in a 30" deskmate cabinet.
