My documents for commercial radio modifications and repeater conversion.

 

Please note that current versions of the Open Office Suite cannot interpret some of these documents as originally posted here because they were created with a very old version of Microsoft Office Word (for Windows 95). OO says it should be able to open them, but it doesn't. Thus I am in the process of updating these downloadables so that they will open as Word 97/2000 documents, which seems to be more of a standard these days. I will also be storing them here as compressed documents, not self-extracting executables.

Files marked as New have been re-formatted as Microsoft Word 97/2000 ® documents and are typically two documents (the main document and a "cover") compressed using the Windows 7 file compression utility. It should be an uncomplicated task to extract them and print them.



In the past I have modified several different kinds of commercial two-way gear for use in the amateur radio bands. As time has gone on, most of this work has focused on one or two particular product groups, namely the Motorola MICOR and General Electric MASTR II and MASTR Executive II transceivers. The links below will initiate a download of the described file.

Please bear in mind some of these documents are relatively old, and that it's been some time since they were created or last modified. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, e-mail me
