The batteries on the M V's we have fit very snugly. Have not had a problem with any of them losing contact. Maybe adding a small piece of thick paper / card stock between the pager and battery to act as a shim? Does not look like it should interfere with the battery contacts. That worked great, goo...

Thank you for the note!! I may have a local guy who can do it, but if he can't I will contact you!

Thanks again,

Tim

I hope this is in the right area...


I have a Radius SP50 hi band that needs programming, would anyone be willing to do this for me please???

Please contact me off-list.

Thanks!

I plan on installing another antenna, but I was hoping to utilize at least one of the two plastic lumps on the roof that are sort of worthless without paying a lot of extra money for their services...

Tim

Okay, kind of a strange question, but here it goes... The Chevy truck I am looking at has two antennas on it, one for OnStar and one for GPS. Now, can either antenna be used for another type of application such as scanner antenna or even a cell phone antenna? I know nothing about this kind of stuff ...

So I could actually buy a VHF radio for use on a 154.xxx frequency and the radio won't take the frequency if it's in the wrong band spread? Makes buying an unknown radio kind of a gamble...

Thank you for the info on the radio, and I'm sorry for posting it on two different sections of the forum, my mistake, I should have deleted the first one I posted in the wrong section before I posted the second one.

Could someone let me know what this handheld has in it?

H43GCU7100CN

16 channel VHF MT1000

I need to put 154.xxx to 155.xxx on this radio.

I need info on the following Moto 2-way MT1000 16 channel

H43GCU7100CN

I told him what number to read, but he just wants to sell them, he doesn't seem to want to figure them out. How can they just put things on and expect them to sell? They'd get more $$ with a description, but they don't realize that... I have moved on to looking at other auctions just for fun, once a...

He wrote back to say "I don't have any idea"...

Back in my day UHF had stubby antennas and the low band ones were so darn long you could fish with the things!!! Yes, the antenna length is deceiving, but then again so is the descriptions people put on Ebay for their auction radios!!! Ask most of them a question and they haven't a clue, that is why...

Ah, one of each, I wasn't thinking in that direction...

Ebay auction # 160067554052

Is this a typo/error or is such a unit made with both bands together in one portable like this? Just wondering...

Tim

I'm sorry, here is the auction number...

280062713423

Auction said Motorola Radius P100...

Now, it may be really old and that's the problem with the numbering system???

Yes, I thought the 40 watt was wrong, I'm reading the list wrong...

I just won the radio on Ebay (God help me...), and the number on the back, according to the seller, is: H43EPU7120AN Now, I have it as the following, see if I'm correct: Handheld 40 watt Hi band EPU- ??????? couldn't find this one????? coded squelch narrow band "fleet radio"??? The seller ...

ARRGGGG, foiled again!!!

The Donut Police, they're everywhere, they're everywhere!!!

LOL!!!

Thanks Pimpala!!!

Okay, I see now what I was doing wrong, duh!! I have to follow the instructions a bit closer, now it makes sense. I was also trying to use a chart I found on another website, but it wasn't jiving with what I had for numbers. I'm trying to figure out how to do it myself rather than ask someone else t...

Can you briefly explain bandsplit to me? I understand the frequency stuff, but bandsplit is something new to me. Thank you for the help! Tim

I am new to the board and I have a question... I am currently trying to buy a Radius radio and I am looking at several auctions on Ebay. The people have given me the "serial number" on the back, but I am still confused on how to read the code, I guess I'm a bit of a dummy... :oops: Is ther...
