Know where to find Minitor II Tone Reeds?

I am currently looking for one specific tone reed- 1500.0 Hz, and Can't seem to find it anywhere! Anyone have any help? Anyone have it, in which they are willing to sell or trade for one or all of the following? (Yes, I am that desperate. Minitor III from Dept. is Cr@p):
(3)903.2
(3)582.1
(1)500.2

Might be a real tough one. Don't see it in Motorola's QCII standard tone chart but found it as a Reach branded tone.

903.2 582.1
Try G&G Communications, http://www.iinc.com/ggcomm/reeds.html.

They have the 582.1 and 903.2 on their list of pager filters, I didn't see the 500.2. 2 out of 3 ain't bad

No, I think you misunderstood. I am looking for 1500.0 Hz, those are the ones I have up for trade if anyone has the 1500, and would like to trade for one of those.

This is true, since Air-Comm used to be 5 miles away from me when I lived in Tempe, AZ. But Sid left lots of gear behind for GTS to sell.... Not everything is listed on the website! Think about giving them a call! (602) 275-4505 -- 800-288-4505 or email? Its just a matter of getting one of the new staff to find it!!!
and since I just got off the phone with Alex down there. Reeds have been out of stock for about a year+.....

BUT! http://www.compwiretech.com/ They have the 582.1 and 903.2 in stock, ask for Matt

Thank you very much, but once again, I am just looking for 1500.0, the other 3 are up for trade for the 1500.0

Bramco/Palstar in Piqua Ohio used to make up tone filters for Min II. Don't know if they are in business yet. Maybe they are on the web somewhere.
