Motorola MOF220 (MCS2000) Squelch Problem

Post by ve2hot »

I have acquired some Motorola MOF220 (MCS2000) that were designed by the Morotola boys in Toron1o back in the 90s. As I understand it, they were destined for Indonesia and specifically for the department of the Minister of Finance, hence the name "MOF". These radios exhibit very good TX & RX audio quality, make about 25W and also feature an **extremely** hot receiver. The squelch breaks < -130 dBm and the radio is 6 dB SINAD at -122 which is where I'd prefer the squelch threshold to be. Using the RSS software called Wookie, I am able to program the radios to do what I need, frequency, PL, power level, etc. The problem is I cannot find out where to change the squelch threshold. Wookie) does not provide any way to do this and also I cannot get the radio into the "tune" mode with Wookie.

Can anyone help me with this?

Here are a couple of them: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ub0atz9242nwr ... 2.jpg?dl=0
