I just received a few Minitor II SV pagers, and am having difficulty in getting them to work the way I want. When tripped the pager will open the squelch for the duration of the record time, then it only opens when there is a signal. I really dislike this "white noise" so I did some searching and found the following thread on converting a director SV to a Minitor http://batboard.batlabs.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=86707 . Based on suggestions in that thread, I closed solder joint JU3D5. This did get rid of the white noise, but instead I now hear nothing until the recording time ends. Also in this configuration, nothing actually gets recorded.
Is there a way to make this pager behave like the non SV model I had in the past? That is, when the pager trips you don't hear anything until someone actually talks, but the pager continues to monitor like this until the reset button is pushed. I honestly don't even care about the SV features if they need to be deactivated.

Re: Help needed with Minitor II SV
I've got a non SV Minitor 2 that I've got no use for (it's not on our frequency). You can take the guts out of it, swap the receiver board and tone reeds with yours and your good to go. I did the opposite....found a SV model and swapped my board/reeds, that's why I have this one now.
$10+shipping and it's yours.

Re: Help needed with Minitor II SV
Well, I will be getting several Low Band Minitor II's next week. If I can swap these VHF High RF boards into them, that is what I intend to do.
