I found some Murata DFC3R915P025BTD drop-in replacement filters for the 900 MHz amateur band Maxtrac modification. I was tired of adapting the TOKO 4DFB-915E-10 surface mount type. Although the TOKO do a fine job, the full size Murata have about a dB less insertion loss and should improve sensitivity.

These are NIB, exact form-fit and function of the two filters we remove from the rf board, except they are the proper frequency bandpass for the amateur band (same part number listed on the Batlabs mods). Willing to share excess.

Have a Jpeg if anyone is interested. Contact me at

I might be interested in the filters....but I have yet to find a good way to convert my mobiles. They have the trunking firmware, not conventional.

Since I just want to use these as a repeater, maybe there is a way to get one simplex/talkaround set up in a trunking unit?

Thanks
