I've got two pairs of Pye Pocketfone 9 Series Transmitters &
Receivers.
I want to put them on eBay, but I don't really know much about them.

They used to be used for studio talkback in a Commercial TV Studio in
SE
London, but were replaced in a recent refurbishment. For security
purposes, the crystals have been unplugged, but I have managed to
acquire eight of them. The crystals are all colour coded green (as are
the 9Rs) and have values 470.1 470.2 and 470.4 - presumably MHz.

Can anyone give me any more info? Are these of use to radio amateurs?

They can be converted but the receive sensitivity may be on the poor
side for amateur use (i.e. the Rx is deaf).
Regards Mike.

I have a pair on 70cm.
The TX is only 50mw I think and the inside antenna does not help.
