Since you're going above frequency specs, is the Quantar anything like a
MSF5000 where you need to adjust a VCO to cover the new range?

Hi everyone,
I have a Motorola Quantar on the bench at the moment and I am having a
slight issue with the programming of the unit. I have programmed
plenty of these for public safety but this one is for amateur use on 70cm.
The receiver, PA and exciter are all for UHF R1 (403-433Mhz) but the
frequencies that need programming are:
RX - 433.175
TX - 438.175
These are the base TX/RX values. When I program the codeplug in, I
obviously get RX and TX errors showing up. Is there any way to trick
the base into going a bit out of band to clear the errors?
Normally I would just swap out the modules for the correct split and
be done with it but this unit is a donation to the club and money for
replacement modules isnt easy to come by.
Thanks
Greg
