Does anybody have or know where to get the firmware for the front panel
frequency entry for the UHF model 3 XTS3000. I have seen a radio with it and
we sure could use it.

I noticed recently that on an outside antenna my IFR 1500 was very
confused by the two local NOAA frequencies, since they're close to
Does anyone know why the New England bandplan has inverted 70 cm pairs
every 25 kHz (unlike the rest of the country, which is either all + or all
- 5 MHz)? 25 kHz isn't close enough for any adjacent channel issues to be
a concern.

I believe it was done to accomodate radios that would not TX well below
445 MHz. Those repeaters could use LIHO and TX well between 447 and 450
MHz.
Yes, it's going to be 'fun' when the 12.5 kHz pairs come into use.

I made a Surprising observation many Yrs ago when I first looked at a

many Techs would just tune the receivers to make it sound better .

Its pretty much a moot point now in most of New Eng due to Pave Paws. Maybe
it would be a good time forNESMC to realign things with all these 440
repeaters going QRT.

But, what would you realign it to? I believe PAVE PAWS covers the entire
band. There is no spectrum left to put them.
Maybe they can move up to 450-451 as long as they don't cause
interference to users there... (a dig on the D-STAR repeaters operating

I was just commenting on the discussion of coordinators setting up schemes
such as in New England where half the repeaters are - input and half are +
input. This can cause some interesting situations during the right band
conditions from machines in other parts of the country.

From what I've been told, when 70cm first started to take off for FM
repeaters, repeater owners in the New York City metro found that they had
fewer issues with desense and overload if they flipped to a negative offset

Perhaps they can be QSY'd during the QRT period, assuming PAVE PAWS will
only operate for a few years given that one site has already been shut
Another reason NYC repeater owners moved to the odd/even flipped
plan was to allow for use of existing tx combiners at premium
commercial sites. If the ham repeater's tx frequency was in the 447-
450 range, an owner could use a site owner's combiner tuned for the
450-455 commercial band, thus

Hi All
On Mike Morris's suggestion here is an experience using the
ID-O-Matic identifier from Hamgadgets.
This is a $20.00 + ($2.67 shipping) kit that can be assembled in
about 30 minutes including reading the instructions. I would say

Consider the ComSpec ID-8 for true sine wave output. Bit more pricy though

Broadcasters use 450 to 451 for telemetry and remote pickup. You don't
want to mess with them there. I know this first hand.
