As to MSNs .... The 43MSN high band mobile was the first all solid state Motorola mobile transmitter. It was the first radio labeled Motran and was a direct swapout of the Motrac - same cable, same head, same everything. The center chassis section that held the T-supply in the Motrac was all empty space.
The 44MST came along later and was based on the same basic design (and came in 4 freq and 12 freq models). In the 4-freq models transmit F1-F4 was in the exciter, receive F1 and F2 were in the receiver chassis, the receive F3 and F4 channel elements were in a corner of the open center area. The 12 freq was developed for the mobile telephone industry and was labeled MARK XII. It was the first binary switched radio in the Moto lineup. It was all 12v - the open center section of the chassis held the additional 18 channel elements. The high power 74MST was a 4 freq UHF MOTRAN (and used a 28volt PA deck run by a 12-to-28 transistorized switching power supply in the center section) along with the receive F3 and F4 channel elements. To get back to the topic, his station has an M series receiver, and an S series exciter that puts out about 20-30w on UHF. It's loosely based on the 74MST design but less the finals, I forget if the MST driver (the final of his exciter) is a 12v stage or a 28v stage.
