[Repeater-Builder] Motorola Maxar mods for 6M?

I have a Motorola Maxar, plate number D31TRA2300AK I scanned through the Repeater builder site and didn't find many hits on the model. I want to put this on 6M - any experience on how difficult it would be to insert a 6M crystal set/realign? Any thoughts or referrals would be most appreciated

If I remember right, Motorola's spec is 92 watts out of the amplifier should yield 75 watts out the back of the station. That translates into 0.9 dB loss through the antenna network (isolator, LPF, etc.). Sounds like your 1 dB is about right...it may be a tenth or two higher since it's being

Dennis, The Maxar is a low-end, economy radio that may be difficult to convert to 6m. I tried to convert some VHF high-band Maxars to 2m, and found their performance to be disappointing- even after doing all of the capacitor changes. I must assume that the low-band models may be equally
