In Oceans 11, the big guys used the Telario.

But the personnel and maintenance guys used XTS series radios. The scene that they're sitting in the break room or something, it's sitting on the table with them.

kc8svs

We've got that almost exact same setup for my ARES group! It's sweet, but we've got a hydraulic telescopic antenna that we got donated to us from a local news agency off one of their vans.

kc8svs

Positive. I was there on Saturday, nobody said anything about buying radios. Maybe they did Sunday, I was working where I'm at now at the radio station... I haven't been to a meeting since I work 2nd at the college.

kc8svs

Wasn't us! That I know of...

kc8svs

We looked as a group with our advisors around, and couldn't find anything that was for sure working good, was in good condition, and fit the pricerange. So we were SOL. It's not a big deal, we still use the radios off the gang charger when we go on rides/ details.

kc8svs

I am not totally educated on 800mhz trunking systems, but I don't see why your MTX8000's would be "obsolete". I think the only difference between the two is that the MTS2000 has flashport technology, and the radio can also be "secure". MTX8000 can't be secure, as far as I know, b...

kc8svs

Matt-

I really. honestly, don't know how much that stuff would be worth.

It would be really cool to have though, like set up to use with my laptop or PDA? you could use thsi system to put MDT's in your firetrucks and do run reports on the way back!

Astromodat, I'm usually not one to comment when things get like this. But, LEMME TELL YA SOMETHIN', You obviously don't know your ass from a hole in the ground on this one, so just keep your mouth shut. I'm actually suprised that Alex hasn't jumped your mouth yet, but I'm sure he will soon once he s...

I tried to do the same thing when I worked at Airborne Express.

It wouldn't work, and we just bought the thing. So I don't think that they're available for cross-fleeting.

kc8svs

When I clean HT90's/440's etc, I take the entire chassis out of the radio case and use rubbing alcohol with Q tips.

When I used my newer radios, I use orange clean or a litle alcohol with q tips or a rag.

Just be careful where you put that stuff.

kc8svs

I go to Conneaut all the time!!! My grandparents just bought some land and recently finished building a house out on Route 7 just south of I-90. I used to live there, my parents grew up and met there, so I'm there a lot. To tell you the truth, any frequencies in that area of the county are pretty mu...

kc8svs

I think we need a BatChat!

What does everyone else think? And is it possible?

kc8svs

Hey all! I just started as a Dispatcher for the Sinclair Community College Police Department in Dayton. The repeater we use is set up weird (from what I am used to). In the dispatch center I use a MaxTrac that is set up on the Dayton PD 800 system, for mutual aid from them (haven't had to use it yet...

Chris

Cant' hurt to try!

HEY! The person selling the radio, is the same person that started this thread!

kc8svs

Good god, and their rate planse are SKY high! I pay 199.99 a month on Nextel for unlimited everything. SouthernLINC has a 2100 daytime min plan for 194.99.

What a rip off.

kc8svs

Hey Tom!

You got a good, cheap, source for a VHF VX900? I am interested in one. Or if anyone you know has em for sale, bla bla bla.

Matt

kc8svs

Damn! They have some good prices on phones.

If I buy from SouthernLinc, would I be able to use the phone on the Nextel network, since it's the same technology?

kc8svs

If you've got an Amateur Radio license, EMS, and FD, you'll be perfectly fine!

I don't know for sure about everyone else though.

kc8svs

It sounds to me like there is just a delay in time from the console to the links. Try paging, then waiting about 3 seconds after the tones would drop on the last repeater with the siren. After the tones drop, give it 3 seconds, then have the dispatcher key. It sounds like an ok setup, but you just c...

kc8svs

It sounds like 1200, but "slower" and a little more drawn-out sounding.

kc8svs

I was working on Friday on my route, and copcarguy alerted me from the Detroit system.

I was like COOL

kc8svs

Alex I don't get what the problem is here. This is extremely odd. It doesn't work for you, but when I type in 136*139121*1 I get a user busy in Private A2 message. Does he ever get off that damn 2 way?! 8) :P :o I had a friend down here from Michigan and his hit mine too, when my direct connect stop...

kc8svs

Direct Connect:

I am on the Dayton Nextel system. Hell, I don't give a crap who 2-ways me! Give me a try at 136*139121*1 and we'll see how it works.

Matt

kc8svs

I agree on making half assed products for turnaround and flat rate repairs.

It's like Plectron. They don't want to go out of business like Plectron did because Plectron made quality products that lasted a long time from the get-go.

kc8svs

Frequency is crystal controlled

Tones, etc, are computer programmed through a "Cradle"

kc8svs

Maybe the person doesn't know a lot about the setup

kc8svs

kc8svs

Ditto

kc8svs

I am not totally familiar, but I would compute the price of six seperate rapid chargers, then add 5%, and that's all I would pay at the most.

IMHO.

Matt

kc8svs

That's affirmative, I concur with Brian's. Trajectory of the outbound vehicular speed, is negative on the 1250ls doing 128 conventional. You are currently barricaded to sixteen conventional channels or talkgroups on the HT1250ls FM radio frequency transmitting device. Breaker breaker! :D :D :D I jus...

Naw! Matt is buying a BC780XLT with his return money, then maybe a radio after that. But I've been wanting a BC for a loooooong time!

Matt

kc8svs

Ok, that's cool.

Now, is there a way to change my return status from through USPS, to instead go to my checking account, even though I already filed?

kc8svs

I just filed for my state and federal taxes. I did Federal by TeleFile and state through the State of Ohio I-File website. For federal, I forgot about my checking account somehow, and elected to have the check sent to me in the mail. For state, I realized that I did have a checking account, and want...

Does everyone think that us BatLab'ers as a WHOLE, cause too much drama over things that should be taken care of inbetween the two parties such as: -Getting a little jipped on a deal. -Not liking an offer given by someone. -Flaming others in public threads, because they don't like them or something ...

kc8svs

Anyone have a BC780 for sale or trade?!

kc8svs

If I were you I would do the following: 1. Watch your language on the board. 2. Contact the police. 3. [ Moderated ] 4. Just advise of the situation, without your total personal opinion on the person. We here on the board can get the point that the person might not be credible enough not to deal wit...

What is a VRS?

Vehicular Repeater something? Like the State Patrol uses?

They have a GE 110w radio in their cars with 44.860 output, then they have UHF HT1000's on their persons.

So is that what they are?

I really don't think those frequencies are going to be that readily available, right?

Although, it does say that the technology is a hi-cap trunking system, it would need a control channel.

kc8svs

Thanks Matt. They are both Motorola, I think the base is a Mostar or something. It's got those F1 and F2 switches that look like the switches on one of those crystallized LED scanners. I'm primarily looking for a bandsplit so I can bring in my HT1250 and show off a little bit, and see if I can talkt...

kc8svs

I tried to match these up, but I'm having a problem with them. They are off of radios at work that we are currently using. I would like some information on them, for example the most, bandsplits, etc, and anything else. Base Radio: FCC TX Data: CC4281C FCC RX Data: RC0(0 may be a D)209 Model #: L44T...

kc8svs

They might even be gutted!

kc8svs

I use my trusty Nextel i90c. Totally secure, digital, and sounds the best!!!!

kc8svs

Brian, it's the HT1250 without a doubt.

kc8svs

What a crock!

We'll give you a discount?!!?!?

Can't there be a lawsuit involved here?

kc8svs

YOU KNOW WHAT EVERYONE Let the person exercise his RIGHT to contact the FCC upon this manner. I mean for Christ's sake, you all are flaming this person like they are doing the WRONG thing. Him being a HAM is not relevant at ALL. As for everyone else, he only asked for the fax number. I mean come on...

This is taken from the Trunked Radio Information Homepage. As a Nextel subscriber, I side with the Public Safety people on this one. This is LUDACRIS! Wouldn't it be cheaper for them just to switch to 700 or 900 and buy their customers new phones, instead of trying to get all these people new radios...

kc8svs

I am looking for a A9 Spectra VHF remote mount. I have a 98 Ranger XLT Extended cab. Where should I put the radio, where to mount the head, etc. I have a 5 speed. I am thinking of putting the drawer underneath one of the seats. Any other ideas/pictures? Any help and all information is precious!
