Eric and Bill, Thanks for the reply and help. You are both correct in that some of the reeds will not work in all applications.
My application, which I should have specified is in a Micor factory repeater station. The station PL decoder and encoder boards that I have will accept either the fat or thin reeds. Eric, thanks for keeping me honest here, as you are such a wealth of knowledge on these radios, and your posts are always so informative to read. Thanks everyone for all of the reply's and help.
