Re: Federal Signal Informer narrow band problems

A little off topic here, but has anyone ever configured a Federal Informer into a Motorola Quantar to trigger PTT and play auto over the air via the audio/relay outputs on back of unit? I believe it is possible, just trying to come up with pins and which connector.
