Okay, I understand what I don't understand, and radio jargon (beyond basic ol' scanners) isn't my bag.
I'm looking for a few HT1000 radios (used, budgets are tight) that will operate on the VFH range. Most channels will be listen only, six will need to be transmit/receive. All six of those channels TX/RX on the same frequency (if "simplex" is the correct term).
There's a few handfuls of them floating out in the cyber that identify themselves as Motorola HT1000 (that works) model number H01KDC9AA3DN. I read up a bit on the codes from what I could Google up (http://www.repeater-builder.com/motorola/motorola-suffixes.html), but I admit it didn't clarify it much.
Basic question I have is, are my basic requirements going to work on damn near any VHF radio in the right spectrum (146-174 MHz, most all sit in the 151-155 MHz area, and a few strays a touch higher), or do I need to ask specific questions before I flash the Visa to make it my own? I've seen some mention here of high and low bands 'n such, just didn't know if that mattered in this capacity. Thanks!
