Hi James - I have piles of the low-band MICOR mobiles (former State Patrol radios). I wish I could sell them for even $20 each, but they go usually for less than that on ebay (and even much less than that at places like Dayton). Most likely what you have is a 42-50 MHz range radio, since you mentioned 6-Meters (I've converted some of them to 6-Meters myself - MICOR mobile and base station radios, and they work great.)
What I need, as I mentioned in the listing is a special 8-watt driver board for the big 330-watt upright base station, in the 25-30 or 30-36 MHz range. Some of the parts for this board are not used in the mobile radios.
