    Gentlemen, 
  After a week and a half I have pieced together a bit more info on the machine 
that I need a manual for.
  I have a Johnson Desk Side Base Station  # 242-4573. It was converted into a 
repeater for use by the CAP. It uses a a home brew controller which I may 
replace. Xtals are another issue, they appear to be the plain old generic HC-25 
style, but I may be wrong. Johnson offered a TXCO for this unit but it was 
never opted for. 
  In summary I need a manual ,any helpful info, an economical source for new 
xtals, and one cabinet lock and key. 
  I presently have two machines (one Micor and one Mastr II) on the air now, 
thanks every one on RB, especially Kevin and Scott. Any help on thi project 
will be greatly appreciated. EF Johnson Info seems to be scarce.

                   Need help in Identifying  Johnson Vhf repeater... No model 
#, or serial # found on unit.
    I recently acquired a working EF Johnson VHF homebrew repeater, has an odd 
ball split. Tx freq. 148.150,......Rx freq. 143.900.
    Unit Xmits 120 watts w/good audio, receiver is fairly sharp. Encodes and 
decodes, 141.3PL tone.  Homebrew controller with courtesy tone only, No cw ID. 
Unit appears to be a mobile radio in a Johnson cabinet w/ EFJohnson P.S. The 
cabinet is about 30 X 22 x 11 inches The mobile radio measures about 15 x 8 x 3 
inches. The vintage is 1982... Need to ID Unit, ( PPL 6050 ???)  help, and 
manual if possible. Are xtals still available? Thanks in advance for any 
assistance,
    de Lee
