Can't find info on this radio....

I'm sure this will be obvious and easy for someone on here. I am looking for info on a radio that Motorola made, probably 15-20 years ago. It was a med radio, looked like a suitcase-briefcase, and I want to think it was a Micor. The one my company had was in a white case.

Any info or pics? I didn't see anything in the "gallery"

Thanks!

Could it be a type of Biophone?

Perhaps an APCOR ? (The one's I had were 10 watts, had input for ECG leads and also had a 'repeater' mode. Were white and came in a fitted
red zippered case which might have come OEM).

Apcor! Thats it. Mfire39, yes, kinda like a biophone from Squad 51.

I have one and could post a photo except that my photo storage is maxed out. There were gray and white APCORs, I think the white was the last one. Built in duplexer and they were shipped to cover all the standardized UHF "MED" channels. Done in by assorted rule changes which eventually allowed the paramedics to administer drugs and do other things without having a doctor standing by to order it.

I seem to recall there is either an MX300 or MT500 hiding inside with a bunch of other circuitry.

Orange County RACES (Calif.) converted a bunch of these to ham portable repeaters.

There also is an Orange one (that closely resembles the Biophone)
