I recently obtained a VHF maratrac (T73XTA7TA7BK) A9 and it has a switch on the control head that says: clear/coded. I fired it up and it sounds like voice inversion. It has a small board with the numbers: 45807-L9059 on the chip. It also has many wires attached from the chip throughout the logic board. I am just trying to identify this board and what type of scrambling it is. Just prior to the voice inversion starting, I also hear what sounds like MDC on the audio. Any help appreciated.

Brian Griffin: Ah, if my memory serves me, this is the physics department.
Chris Griffin: That would explain all the gravity.

Peter: No, I'm just exhausted because I've been up all night drinking.
Sounds like a Transcrypt board. They use GE STAR (I think) for signalling the code to be used at the start of each transmission. Does it produce a periodic clicking sound as well?
