We had a Mark 4 on 2m, for many years. Transmit audio the best we
ever heard. Rec was fine. The Controller was Old school but it did
what it said it would.
For a Military repeater converted for the commercial marketplace in
the 70s I think they did an OK job. You can still get service for them
too!
Anyone looking to buy a 2m Mark 4 in great condition; to play with or
as a back-up or for a portable unit, email me direct.
We upgraded to Kenwood TKR. Nice, easy to program but the audio
doesn't come close to the Kendicom's.
73,

In a word, bad. The RXs are salvageable, & do have some strong
points. The internal squelch is NG IMO & needs to be replaced,
preferably
with a Micor squelch. The TXs & internal controller are junk.
Best bet for 220 is a converted GE or Micor, or find a Midland
13-509 to
split apart.
