Well, it appears to be the standard 25w UHF model. An actual model number of the repeater would be a bit more helpful in determining the actual PL/DPL capabilities, as it only does one or the other (or CSQ)

Here's some limited information (along with programming cable how-to links)

Other than that, a model number would be usefull for breaking down any more information on it.

The one in the photos has tone remote capabilities. DC battery revert option with charger.

I have one of these units which I am about to put into service ( finally). My local Moto tech I deal with said " A really decent repeater, many of which are still in service in our metropolitan area!". Anyhoo, I thought you would appreciate this info which I glommed off of an old post I put up here way back when I got mine. The list below, along with the footnotes will tell you exactly what you are looking at as far as type/power.

Model Tone Chassis Output
G1039A PL Tone Remote/Repeater 25 watts
G1039A-SP500 DPL Tone Remote/Repeater 25 watts
G1040 PL Repeater 25 watts
G1040A-SP500 DPL Repeater 25 watts
G1045A PL Tone Remote/Repeater 2-10 watts programmable
G1045A-SP500 DPL Tone Remote/Repeater 2-10 programmable
G1046A PL Repeater 2-10 watts programmable
G1046A-SP500 DPL Repeater 2-10 watts programmable
Q2903A PL Repeater 25 watts
Q2904A DPL Repeater 25 watts
Q2931A PL Repeater 2-10 watts programmable
Q2932A DPL Repeater 2-10 watts programmable

"G" Series Model Numbers are branded asRadius R100 Repeater Stations
"Q" Series Model Numbers are referred to as MCR100 Repeater Stations.

Both are similar in size and appearance.

R-100's are very common and pretty much as cheap as dirt these days. They tended to have really good recievers especially with the aid of a pre-amp. They also tend to run nearly forever......they do not put out a lot of power though.......

Good luck

Not to be the price cop.. But $340 for a R100? Those things sell for half that or less all the time on eBay and elsewhere.

FYI, I think a Moderator should put that on the R100 page, it would be really helpful.

Once again...

WE CANNOT change anything at BATLABS.COM. We have control of batboard.batlabs.com. We do not have any access to the orginal site. That is Bat's doing. If you know a way to get ahold of Bat, we would love to know.

However, there are a couple of things in the works that may be released soon to help overcome the homepage limitations. Stay tuned.
