Minitor IV 2nd Channel

Hi All~ I've been perusing the site for quite a while learning as much as i can through osmosis and avoiding repeat questions as much as possible.

I have a Minitor IV SV pager 1 channel VHF. It is currently programmed to 155.1600

I have seen both on ebay and on a web site somewhere a service that offers the addition of a 2nd channel to the pager (for a fee of course).

Is this bogus? I know that this is an option through the dealer sign-on two convert to 2 channels but does this make my pager a nice looking belt ornament? I'm considering doing it but i like my pager in a working state.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Matt

It's legit... all they're doing is dropping the software into Engineering Mode and reprogramming the pager as a 2 channel. No big deal.

2 channel "mod" works like a charm! Thanks to all for the patience and help!
