I am looking for any service manuals, schematics or that type of information for Motorola Alert Monitors from the early 1970's. My fire department is currently in possesion of about 25 of them and only 10 work correctly. All still receive though some poorly, some of them don't "trip" when the tones are transmitted and some the squelch doesn't adjust correctly. We would like to fix them if possible but we can't get anyone to touch them. I have worked as a technition/troubleshooter am am willing to try these but it is hard to work on sonething you have no specs for. They are all model L01CND7100A and are for 46.060 MHZ. If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

I have several manuals (some place) for Alert Monitors. I seem to recall a lo-band one. If I can find it, I will loan it to you.

Pretty sure I know I have one. Do you have a service monitor or some method for injecting an on-frequency signal at varying levels? You can tune with a VTVM, but need an on-frequency signal to do so.

Of course, you also would want some way to send the 'tones' too.

Yeah I have a signal generator and can get my hands on a tone generator
