Sure. The Motorola PAC-RT is basically a Handie-Com MH-10 or MH-70 (or 
2) in a box. If you have the book for one of them, on the band your unit 
is on, you have a good part of the RF board info, at least.

OK, good to know.

Mine is on VHF (154.920 right now), and I'd probably want to move it to 2m
for my use.  

I haven't looked at the manual yet (I do have a digital form of the PAC-RT
VHF manual) but I assume these are rock-bound...  Hmmm. Time to research!

Thanks es 73,
