Whaddaya mean lunchboxes don't count? I have a pair of GE Portamobile II's in the shop just begging to be recrystalled and ready to rock. If course, I was considering building those into APRS trackers or packet boxes, where everything was built inside, and all you needed to do was plug in a laptop.
I dug an actual GE "HandiTalkie" out of the bottom of a box that was full of surplus stuff from the county. In that same lot was a couple of MX300s. -- John "Smokey Behr" Gleichweit FF1/EMT, CCNA, MCSE IPN-CAL023 N6FOG UP Fresno Sub MP183.5 ECV1852 List Owner x10, Moderator x9 CalEMA 51-507 http://smokeybehr.blogspot.com http://www.myspace.com/smokeybehr ----- Original Message ---- > From: skipp025 <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Sun, July 25, 2010 7:00:36 PM > Subject: [Repeater-Builder] showing our age (old HT's) > > > > Allow me to show my age ... > > To me, the HT-220 is/was a Xtal Controlled Ht !! > > Allow me to show my age... > > The HT here is a VHF Engineering 2 Meter Portable > assembled from a kit... and it still works. > > :-) > > s. > > ps: Surplus Motorola and GE Lunch Boxes don't count on > the bragging scale. > > > > ------------------------------------ > > > > Yahoo!
