Hi Joe,
Yep, I know I worked on the entire GE line when the entire line
came
out MASTRII, EXECII, MVP and MASTR PE HT. The MASTR EXECII is
similar to the MVP or vice versa.

Just FYI-Mastr II and Exec II are two different radios. Which do you have?

Wow !! Kevin, I got two of those Spectrum repeaters sitting on the shelf.
Could I turn them into two Mastr II ? I admit, the front panel is impressive,
very pretty. The metering would be usefull also. I wanted to someday use the
front panel and put a decent Rx Tx unit on the chassis with a

It seems a lot of the complaints are from oscillator drift and
tuning drift. I have a few questions Does anyone know if the main
problem resides in the exciter, or the power amp? My plan would
eliminate all problems related to the oscillator because the Tx and
Rx will be generated from a pair
I think much of the problem is in the
tuning caps on both the exciter and PA.

Yup, the UHF Mastr-Pro transmitter will do that if you don't do
the maintenance on it properly.
I have worked on a few of those transmitters over the years.
