Ok, speaking of seeing rare / probably non-US radios, can anyone tell me what radio this is ?

http://www.motorola.com/web/Business/B2 ... ocaleId=82

Click on the document ( an older (circa 2003) dated Motorola Impres Charger document) I was reading, and just happened to look on the first page. The first radio in the gang charger, what is it ? Looks like an XTS3000/5000 on steroids ?? It has the XTS3000 / 5000 knobs, side buttons, etc. but the front of it is entirely different. (again, NOT the Tetra radio that is clearly shown, but the one IN the 6 bay charger, in the first bay). Also, when looking at the charger compatibility, the XTS5000 is not listed there, so I would assume this was before the XTS5000 was "officially introduced".

So, what IS this radio ??

Here you go. http://www.ok1mjo.com/all/tetra/Motorol ... MTP300.pdf

Wouldn't mind having a pair on the 400-430 split for DMO operation...

That's not the MTP300 in the first PDF, it's the MPT700:

Read the original post again - he was referencing the unit in the gang charger.

Nothing but glorified iDEN nonsense anyway.

Interesting how they save all the neat looking designs for the foreigners.

That MTP300 looks like a weird hybrid of an XTS3000 and an r750. The screen reminds me of an old i1000 iDEN flip phone. Do they do conventional DMO or just digitial?

DMO is conventional simplex if I understand it correctly... But they are digital-only portables. Yes they do support DMO. But the bandsplits they are available on are federal (380) and the low end of amateur 70cm (420)

Kinda looks like a efj 5100 with the speaker on the bottom!
