It's a little ugly, but it works. Minimally tested.. I programmed in a local repeater, and was able to get a good signal report. It appears to TX and RX as it should. No accessories included, body only. Per the RSS: H43SAN7139BN, 144-162MHz, 12 Channel, 6 Watt radio. Asking $10, which includes priority shipping to your door. Radio is being sold AS-IS with no guarantee. Paypal only.

I know, It's a horrible habit. Luckily, I've found a support group :)

Sure, no prob. I would just need the TX / RX freqs, or simplex, and the tones if applicable. I received the radio with a batch of mobiles, not sure why it was included. None the less, I have no use for it and would hate to feed it to the dumpster. It fires up and hits local repeaters just fine, even had a short QSO using it. Kind of ugly, but I have a lot of respect for this era radio. $10 including shipping..... again, no guarantee's, only minimal testing has been done :)

OK.
I'll put a list together and PM it to you.
Probably will be a mix of HAM and MURS.

Got it. Thank you.
It fired up thanks for the battery.
Sounds great.
It has 3 more clicks after #12, does that show on the programing screen?
Any idea what the part # is for the Motorola charger? I need to grab one.

I know you said as-is, but do these radios normally make a long beep when PTT?

Bizarre... the channel selector should only be a 12 position rotary. Long beep upon PTT, hmmm. The battery may not have enough juice???? I found that battery in the depths of my Moto junk bin. No idea if it even holds a charge.

My thoughts were a bad batt causing the beep on PTT (from my experience using Motorola HTs).
I stuck it on my charger and it green lighted quickly.
Oh well.
Maybe I'll pick up another one, they seem rea$onable on ebay.

Green lights quick...... yup, battery is toast. I included it at no extra charge, hoping it would work for you. Oh well.

Toasted batts cause issues.
I'll pick up a new one.
Weird, it acted fine at first.

They all do that.

I'm not bitching, just curious:
Maybe someone who knows (or you) Sabers-
Depressing PTT sounds a 2 second BEEEEEP. Not a 'chirp-chirp' that usually indicates low batt.
And there's the static, like open squelch- this could also be toasted battery conditions.?.
The data burst it TX's would be cool if it was my call sign. Or something.

So when I lock on to another Saber can you program it? I can send it over with a return postage.
