I took a close look at a spare Motorola MTR2000 fuse, part number 6583049X16, and can provide some additional data: The fuse is rectangular, with a square cross-section, and measures about 6.0mm by 2.6mm. It has a ceramic body, with silver-plated end caps. The legend "IE5A" is printed on one

I agree with Eric, almost sounds like your 1K (or PL/DPL tone) is on and affecting the bandpass of the RX. Also check to make sure unit is not programmed for narrow band operation. Would also confirm what version of software repeater is running, could have an old version with known bugs. Have 50

Just out of curiosity are you performing these tests with a 1000 cycle tone and if so, have you tried it with no modulation? It almost sounds like it is going out of the bandpass of the receiver when you increase the signal level. What happens when you vary the frequency a few KC higher or lower i

Hi Eric, >I make no secret of my disdain for "bells and whistles" like clever courtesy tones, autopatch, and voice announcements. I work primarily in commercial and public-safety radio systems where such "features" have no place. That's certainly an understandable take, but keep in mind

Thanks Eric. Can you refer me to anywhere on this site that might contain all the features of the internal controller? Screen shots or text.. If using an external controller on the MTR2000 one might not have ability to reduce the power setting under battery operation unless the external could do

Eric, Argus would NOT help us with their battery revert/charger device. Forget ANY support. I went with much the same setup that you did in the past. That was 2002, and no problems since. "Eric Lemmon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I suppose it would be a good idea to use the recommended Argus

I suppose it would be a good idea to use the recommended Argus Battery Reverting Charger, to avoid violating the warranty terms. However, I wonder just how complicated the Argus unit is, since the only connection to the radio is through the red/black socket. I have one of the Argus units on order
