Actually I have had excellent luck with just making sure there is no leakage
from the signal generator or cable to the duplexer when using a talkie as the
receiver for tuning a duplexer. After carefully tuning the pass adjustments,
leave them alone when you have minimum loss and best SWR. The
In a few days we will be dropping dialtone service to our repeater. However,
there is still a desire to somehow dial 911.
An archive search of the list yielded no relevant advice on how to use an old
cellphone to do this. We have no internet service in the radio room, but there

Something to keep in mind:
If your phone line was only for autopatch, you're fine. BUT if it was
also your means of control, you will have to provide another means for
that as well.

I'm looking for a 70-1052A. Can any of you direct me to finding one?? Thanks.
Talk to your phone Co .. let them know what you need it for .. for 911 if
you use the repeater for ARES .. let them know ..
I have heard of the phone co doing a DEEP discount on the service or a
freebe ( as it looks good on there books)
cant hurt to try ... you will have to talk to the VP of
So far, all old analog cell phones I have picked up dial 911 without paid
service. I call the local dispatcher on them to test this, no problem, so a
larger bag phone, generally free and incredibly easy to work on due to their
size, could work, a controller made from something like a basic stamp
Kurt,
I'd be very surprised if 800-MHz analog cellular service still exists
anywhere. It ended in my area of California more than a year ago.
Nevertheless, it's possible that 1900 MHz digital cellular carriers will
support free 911 dialing, if certain conditions are met. Hey, it's worth a
try!
Kurt, all Cellphones will dial 911 whether they are activated or not.
But...the analogue phones will soon be turned off if they haven't already
been shut down, very soon.

Analog cellular was discontinued in Feb of 2009, ATT and Verizon turned
their analog off on the day it was permitted-it is possible that some
smaller operators are still offering analog but I don't know of any-and
ALL cell phones are required by law to be able to dial 911 even if they
are not
If you have a standard telephone line and you ask for the
service to be turned off, many telco companies will leave
the line active and able to dial 911. I've got this feature
on two or three remote lines.

One other item... you can change the land line phone service
to metered rate and/or set up life-line service, which is
pretty darn cheap.

Oh, great wizards. I have an aging, fragile 386sx laptop that has faithfully
programmed my X9000 radio for years. I also have a Compaq LTE P1 120 that I
program all of my other Moto radios with successfully except for the X9000. On
the Compaq, I have tried booting to real DOS6.22 from a floppy
Yes. I'm running it fine on a PIII and can read and write with 100%
reliability. The trick is to lauch MoSlo twice in a row. I'm using the
latest version known as MoSlo Deluxe for DOS. If you are as well then try
lauching MoSlo once then launch it a second time. You'll see an odd
processor speed
Well, crud... I haven't tested the service in about a year.
Best you can do is grab an old analog phone, dial 911, see what happens.
If you get a dispatcher, handle it how you see fit.
If that doesn't work, try a newer digital one. Since you'd need to get to
the keypad for your mod, use a
When you first turn the computer on it will usualy say something like
press F5 for boot screen, do it and go in and see if there is a setting
for slower processor speed.
Select slow speed and also disable the cache .
I have to do these two steps with my Toshiba Satalite and it works fine
