I just recently picked up a VHF 125-Watt MSF-5000 base station at a local government auction, the model number is C73CXB-7106B. From some of the research I've done on the internet, I understand that this is a base station, 125 watts, and the PA deck model number corresponds to a 146-174 MHz split.

You probably do not want to waste your time on this unit. If it is like the repeater that our club bought, it is a DOG. The transmitter goes spurious and the receiver does not have a front end. Probably better off for yourself and the other users of the RF spectrum (not Spectrum Communications

You guys aren't paying attention. A transmitter with a 0 ohm output impedance doesn't imply that there is a short circuit. We're talking about an effective source impedance, not a termination impedance. Furthermore, there's a difference between an amplifier being designed to work *into* a 50 oh
