I will check our stash of older goodies. Im fairly certain we may have
something to suit your needs. Shoot me a line off-list and let me know what
exactly you are looking for. (I'm still new to the radio stuff - learning as I
go.)

Sorry, bursting your bubble was truly not my intent. I suffer from
occasional CRS :-)
Seriously though lookin for a handheld with 4 channels to do 2 meters
for a friend in a home. If you come across somethin(cheap, cheap, real cheap)
let me know. The state is paying for his care. He got hit by a driver w/ no
insurance and no assets to attach. He gets around pretty well though, no
bedpans or cute nurses have to hold his antenna for him. :-)

You are a cruel one sir. I was excitedly hammering up an email to you
off-list to talk about it some more. But I had to think about your programming
pin question as these are crystals. *DOH* Then you corrected yourself. *BLOOP*
Email deleted.
Strike one for me....

Ooooops I was thinking SP50. Sorry you can keep that beauty!
:-)
Anybody got an sp50 or gp300 VHF with at least 4 channel
capability. Want to get the guy on 2 meters. I have nothing in VHF.
Thanx

Got a friend in a convalescent home, studying for his
ticket now. That would be perfect for him.
Let me know.
P50+ programming pins on side if I remember correctly
?

Landfill - For sure! (If they're not working) These
have the UHF frequency still adhered to the battery panel, so I have very
strong reason to beleive these are UHF and not VHF hiding in a UHF case. Doesnt
appear to be tampered with or pry marks indicating it was opened before.
(Thank goodness). I really hope I dont have to PAY anyone to take these off my
hands in the future!
I just noticed I *STILL* have my Tall Radius P50+
with a numeric touchpad still sitting on my shelf I thought I got rid of MONTHS
ago. Its come back to haunt me!! (Anyone want it?) :)

well, the second '4' means UHF, so yes, unless
someone put a VHF radio
in a UHF case...

<scratches head> Isn't a P50 the cheapy xtal
radio from the early 90's?
Maybe 4-channel tops? If so, the 'tall' vs.
'short' was carrier squelch
vs. PL/DPL. So yes, that means converting a CSQ
radio to PL means
changing the case...
And no, these are NOT narrowbnad compatible, so
they have no value in
Part 90. And they were pretty cheap, flimsy
radios, hard to work on,
easy to break, I wouldn't take one for free...
Land fill...
