If it were me, I'd be looking at a Motorola Mitrek, Micor or possibly
even Motrac receiver. The Motrac is an excellent receiver but the IF
filter, called a Permakay is probably no longer available and could
make a doorstop out of it if it fails, which used to be fairly
common. Motorola did claim

Even if/when Permakay filters are no longer available from Motorola, I think
there will be enough old Motrac receivers laying around to steal parts from.
Anyone running Motrac gear would be wise to keep a few parts radios in
storage.
The last time I had to replace a Permakay filter was for a

I hope you're right. I've got two Motran (L receivers) mobiles, one
150Mc and one 40 - 50 Mc. The 40-50 was a spare and never put in
service, just sat in a police garage somewhere. I would sure hate to
see those go. Think I'll take your advice and start looking for a
couple of parts donors.
The first thing you need to do is determine if you can even get a 6
meter repeater frequency. Do this before you even start getting heavily
invested in any equipment.

This is a stand-alone receiver in it's own rack mountable tray, some

Tom reminded me-yes, the Mitrek makes a very good 6M rx as well, little
to no mods.
Most rx mods involve front end helical work-needs a LARGE soldering iron
or torch.

Mick,
You are in luck. I was just cleaning a small corner of the radio shed
out and was going to pitch an Exec II receiver already crystaled and
tuned on 52.190. It would work well for your repeater and cost nothing
but shipping.
Contact me off the list if you want it.

I have a request to provide flat audio from dc to 5k on a UHF link from
a 2 meter repeater.
I've got some new Vertex-Standard VX-4000U radios that would do nicely,
but they won't program below 450.
Has anyone run across a mod to the software that will allow use on 440
freqs?
Thanks!

I have to replace a modem on a Motorola Privacy Plus Controller.
I picked up a new external modem w/ a serial port, but I cannot find
any instructions or settings for the modem.
Its been a long time since I have had hands on with these and it

Jim,
On our commercial and amateur sites we use the Arcom RC-210
controllers for both amateur and commercial repeaters, as well as
total site monitoring. We have them reading voltage and charging
current on our solar sites with voice announcements. Monitoring the AC
