RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: GP-68 info
It is a re-imported Motorola export only HT that covers commercial/ham, can be user programmed, and is not supported in the US by Big M. It is relatively cheap on eBay and, once programmed, is fairly easy to use, but, again, don't expect to find local service support from Motorola. It is similar to the AP- and CP- version HTs, but is widebanded and NOT type accepted for US use.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: GP-68 info
Basically 20 channels of 438-470mhz, user programmable (i.e. from the front panel). No alpha tags, tho. One neat feature is that it has a 16-button touchtone pad. And some have type acceptance labels, some don't. The radio comes with the keyboard programming feature disabled, you have to remove a surface mount resistor to enable it. The original intent was that the dealer has the enabled radio, and programs it to the customer specs. He then clones the master radio into the slaves with a cloning cable. And yes, when I first heard about it I said to myself that the person HAS to have that model number wrong. But them he pulled his out from under the seat and no, Moto really did use an Electro-Motive model number At 05:44 AM 12/20/04, you wrote: It is a re-imported Motorola export only HT that covers commercial/ham, can be user programmed, and is not supported in the US by Big M.
