FS: VHF Motorola Handheld 2- Way Radios ("HT's")
For Sale: I have a pair of exceptionally clean Motorola Spirit (Model MV24CVS) VHF "Handy-Talkies" ("HT's"), with two matching Motorola Desk Chargers for sale. Seldom will you find any used Motorola equipment in such "clean" condition as these VHF handheld units. Features include: * Both are rugged and reliable Motorola 4 Channel VHF models; both are 4 channel units, with channels easily programmed and easily selected using the channel selector switch on the top of each "HT". No other equipment whatsoever is needed to program the frquency or the "privacy tones" used by these units. * Both units are "self-contained", with built-in microphones and built-in speakers; nothing else is needed. Units are "ready to go" the moment you receive them. Operation couldn't be simpler, so even a young child can operate these units easily. A copy of the complete owner's guide, which includes all usage and programming instructions in "non-technical" English, is included * Other external controls include a volume and a squelch control, as well as jacks for connection of an external microphone and an external earphone, if desired * Both units include their Motorola VHF "duckie" antennas * Both units include good rechargeable NiMh battery packs * Additional rechargeable NiMh battery packs readily available for these units at very reasonable prices * Both units include their Motorola desktop "cradle" chargers (with plug-in wall transformers and charging indicator lights) * Each of the 4 channels allows selection of a user-programmable tone for channel "privacy" * Two of the 4 programmed frequencies in each of these two "ht's" are "MURS" frequencies, which require no FCC license whatsoever * These units are ideal fo personal and family communications, sucn as for communicating from work or school to home, use when shopping, camping, road trips, group trips, etc. They're also ideal units for emergency local communications use for emergency preparedness use Very simple programming instructions are located on the inside of both unit's battery covers, making programming simple and convenient. They can be programmed easily without the need for any other equipment; these "ht's" have a synthesized "voice" that tells you the frequencies as you step through each of them while programming frequency and "privacy" tone for each of the 4 channels. The range of of these rugged and reliable handheld units is approximately 5 miles (depending upon terrain). Will sell for $100.00 plus the actual shipping charges (to Cont'l U.S.), payable by USPS Postal Money Order only, please. Thanks & 73, -Bill KB3PT Selbyville, Delaware E-mail: |

I've ignored it because I am not in the U.S. and therefore would not buy them, but I've wondered what frequencies they operate on. IMHO if they operate on a ham band, then you should say so to stimulate interest, and if they don't find a more appropriate group. Geoff. -- Geoffrey S. Mendelson, Jerusalem, Israel N3OWJ/4X1GM |

You posted this to rec.radio.swap, and to rec.radio.amateur.equipment. The former is for buy and sell ads, the latter is for the discussion of amateur radio equipment. rec.radio.amateur.equipment is not for ads, it never was and still isn't. Jut because some fools think it is does not make it so. I don't recall seeing any mention of amateur radio in the original post, so I certainly wondered why it was here, rec.radio.amateur.equipment, not even simply because it was an ad but because it didn't really seem to be even amateur radio related.

Are you interested in buying these Motorola VHF radios, Jak, or is there some specific reason why you chose to add (yet another) message to two "rec.radio" newsgroups rather than simply send it via e-mail? I believe I once saw a car just like yours sell somewhere for less than yours, Jak. Perhaps you too may benefit from learning to use filters in your newsreader client. Sorry I must have missed the announcement that the Newsgroup Police appointed Newsgroup Policemen. Congratulations on your appointment, Sir. The Motorola VHF Handhelds, by the way, remain for sale for the stated price. If you have some you'd like to get rid of, you may want to price them a bit lower, or perhaps put them on eBay (where they're commonly seen to go in the $200 range, often with few if any accessories included).

It would be interesting to see how anyone could put these on 2 meters or any
other frequencies for that matter. "Bill Golden" wrote in message news:7VHNj.17181$DD2.13732@trndny04... "Geoffrey S. Mendelson" wrote in message ...
