Re: TX Board for Motorola XPR8300 Repeater?
I did the same with great success. Also added a ~2" muffin fan to the additional tx deck heatsink. Been working well through thousands of daily nets for close to 10 years.

I have a Harris XG-75M that does 440-512 stock. Got it off eBay for about $175. Excellent radio with lots of features.

Does anyone know what version 2 UHF radios in the commercial line will
