The B94MSB-1106A is identified in the Motorola catalog as a 275 watt UHF Upright Base Station with tone remote control. The word "Motrac" does not appear in the description. Although it is no longer in print, the manual that covers this station is 6881011E75. The C75RCB-6105AT is identified as

Yeah-the SECOND iteration of the Industrial Disaster, er, Dispatcher. The Ford plants here had a bunch of them on tow motors. ugh. The FIRST ones were germanium PNP's in the rx, and mostly quick-heat filament tubes in the tx. For VHF, either .8W or 5W with 2E24 final. 'Key the mic, count to 3, th

Thanks Mike. I knew that if I was in error, someone would correct me. Decoding older Motorola stuff is not my "strongest" area. ;-) But at least I got it right as far as it being a Motran, yes? Mark - N9WYS -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com On Behalf Of Mike M

If I am decoding the model numbers properly... The first station is most likely a 250W UHF MOTRAN base station, but has a tube in the final PA. The second station is a high-power continuous-duty 800 MHz (or possibly 900 MHz) MICOR. (Check the channel elements for the exact freq.) Someone will co
