Vern, Usually the easiest way to find what band and band segment it are on is to look at the Channel Elements, the small cans in the exciter and receiver. They unplug. A label on the top of the cans gives its frequency. However, to prevent them being put back on the same freq some pull the elements. Most always one can get to them thru a panel behind the receiver. Same with some exciters.
There were 3 ranges for VHF as someone stated. Wonder what the heat sink looks like. The continuous duty has large 17"w x 7h x 6 deep heat sink. Otherwise it is built into the main chassis or is tube amp. Mot made a number of variations of these. They do make good repeaters. Just takes some work. One clue if it is a repeater and not a base station is the card cage usually has a "Squelch Gate" card. This controls rx to tx keying. I think others gave you lots of good info with the repeater builders site. The power supply tells lots. Might describe it. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Date: 2008/03/28 Fri PM 01:19:10 CDT >To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com >Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Compa Station Help > >I have a Compa Station with the model number C73RTB-1106C. > >I am looking for some help figuring out what this is >split, etc and how to make it into a repeater. > >First things first is that there is no power leads hooked >up except for the one to the control board box.
