I should add that both decks have v.24 cards in them

I have a VHF and UHF Quantar and a single SCom 7330 controller. Due to available space limitations at the sites, they will be deployed in opposing sides of town but will have similar footprints. I will be running them dual mode FM/P25. Internet and POTS are available, but T1 is out of the question. ...

I do not know if this has been already asked, so after perusing through some threads for the last half hour I'll ask.... How difficult... or is it even possible to Frankenstein build a Quantar repeater? If so, has anyone done it? Success or fail? With all of the recent FRUs and surplus units surfaci...

Carl Robbins/Carolina Radio... thats a name I hadn't heard or seen in ages. As previously mentioned in the thread, he was very reliable and innovative with aftermarket cables in the late 90's and early 00's but he appeared to fall off radar and off the face of the earth. Carl also had aftermarket ba...

On Centracom II its 1004hz pulsed.

Been there, done that... On the VHF radio in particular, there is something wrong with the physical control head. I was able to swap heads with another set up that had blank non-assigned buttons, populated the control head and reprogrammed the entire unit and it works flawlessly. The original head w...

After running through numerous scanarios, it came down to a functional, but faulty control head. I pulled a control head from another siren equipped a9 and it functioned flawlessly although mode names didnt match whats in the rf deck.

I just reinstalled my vhf high power and uhf mid power A9s in my daily driver. They sat idle in a vehicle I had not used in years. I recently purchased 1 hln1185b and 1 hln1185c siren boxes with brand new spectra to siren cables. After the install, only the airhorn works. The display will show wail,...

A friend works for a truck fleet maintenance company, he hooked me up.

cool, i'd like to see a pic of that set-up. i was going to go with a VIAIR system (and still might eventually) but for now i just have a hadley mini compressor and their large tank. their definition of large is 275 cu. in. which comes out to about 1.2 gallons @115-135 psi. surely that won't last to...

I've got a set of Nathan K3LA's on my ride :) What kind of air supply/tank are you running? Initially I was going to run a nitrogen bottle, then decided to go the SCBA route with regulator as I have access to a cascade & compressor. I ended up getting a 12 gallon tank and VIAIR compressor onboar...

My Parents brought a brand new at the time 1981 Mercury full sized station wagon (A Colony something or other) that had a /\/\otorola manufactured 40 ch. CB as one of the purchased factory options. It had a HHCH that was very probably a predecessor to the Spectra/Syntor HHCH. The audio was routed th...

Why not change the date on your computer then slam the codeplug back in to the radio? Worked for me on anonther line.

I dont know much about nextel partners--however I do know that they are the ones who put up 3 sites in my community. They supplied the tower, land and prepped the site. Nextel came in an added the infrastructure. Nextel and the 'partner' share the revenue brought in from these 'shared' sites. I dont...

So what's the scoop, Matt? Further to answer your question... paging & wireless service center started out doing good service. I stopped doing business with them when I sent them 6 pagers for repair, yet when they were 'returned as repaired' only 2 were done properly. I had heard that /\/\ was o...

Ahhh... the benefits of asset seizure!

By watching the counter on the main page, it appears that the batlabs site will reach it's millionth hit by sometime this weekend.

Congrats and a BIG thank you to Bat, Alex, Monty, Elroy, Jon and to everyone who makes this site the tremendous asset that it is.

I am not exactly sure what you mean by "Motorola Evacuation tones" However, on Motorola dispatch consoles that I have used, the 3 "alerting tones" on everything that I used were as follows: 1004 hz solid tone for the duration that the button is pressed over the selected channel u...

Greetings, My department just took delivery of 20 new Minitor IV pagers with amplified chargers. When programming them, I noticed that within the lot delivered, the pagers had two different firmware versions. One was version 9.53 and the other 9.65... Does anyone have a clue as to what the differenc...
