motorola repeater model # scheme... wtfo

Post by batdude »

well, back in the day, it used to be at least somewhat easy to recognize what you were looking at...

C73 (100w VHF)
C74 (100w UHF)

of course, with no less than four UHF band splits and two or more VHF splits... it still took some work....


but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO


now we get "T5544" = MTR 2000 (god knows what band)

and, the magical

T5365 = Quantar.....


can someone who works at moto PUUUULLLEEZE add something to the damn stickers that tell the owner / buyer / lurker exactly what we are looking at without racking out some module and running the part number?

makes no damn sense at all.

My two bits worth:
I think that this is from Motorola's "Office of non comatibility."
They are the ones to blame every time we see somthing that makes no sense whatsoever.
