What portion of the 800 band is your customer using? If it's general category, the new 800/900 MotoTRBO radios can do Type 2 at least. If it's NPSPAC trunked, the TRBO won't work.

You won't find a 'small' radio that'll do Type I trunking. MTX8000 is about as good as it'll get.

The MT1500 does not do Type I trunking...needed as per the original poster.

Perhaps an MTX8250 would work. Doesn't its Type IIi capability cover a Type I system?

Really? There ya go. I guess I shouldn't assume. I thought if it was type II, it was backward compatible to type I. Sorry about that.
