Duly noted on not lifting the boards unless you know exactly what you are doing. I don't quote anyone on any of our units unless IM absolutely certain. The fact that you wouldn't pay 5 bucks for these says a lot about these.
Thanks again, both of you, for your sagely advice. What mountaintop can I find you Gurus on? :) John Hymes La Rue Communications 10 S.

Dip switches are for pl tones only. Correct on units being crystal. Agree with you on ebay; I would'nt pay $5 bucks! 44 pretty sure is UHF @ 4 w, short 1w ? (do not quote me on this; threw those things out MANY moons ago.) If you lift the self adhesive board under battery it usually spells trouble if not done with precision surgery. --- On Thu, 4/8/10, Bill Smith <[email protected]> wrote: From: Bill Smith <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Motorola Radius P50 To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, April 8, 2010, 6:02 PM It's a 4-watt UHF carrier squelch radio.

PL or DPL boards fit under the plate in the battery compartment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: La Rue Communications <laruec...@gmail. com> To: Repeater-Builder@ yahoogroups. com Sent: Thu, April 8, 2010 2:18:10 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Motorola Radius P50 Two questions on this unit. 1) Does anyone know the nomenclature for this? I have checked out several different versions, including one that was built for assignments dated after 3/10/02. I tried to check it out with it, however, it doesnt match up when it came to the power level code. So I scrapped that one. Google searches turn up a pair of them listed on eBay for 250 bucks. (Who are they kidding?) Model number is H (For Handheld) 44GNU1120BN. I beleive it is a UHF, but I would like to know the rest of the specs, spacing, packages, etc. 2) One the same units, I have a "Tall" one and a "Short" one. Battery sizes are clearly the differing factor. Does that mean Power levels come into play here? Thanks in advance! John Hymes La Rue Communications 10 S. Aurora Street Stockton, CA 95202
