   HERE'S SOME INFO OF THE MCX1000, AN EXCELLENT RADIO, IF YOU CAN FIND
   ONE!
   ______________________________________________________________________
                                      
   The MCX1000 mobile is an excellent radio. It has a very tight front
   end, it sports a 7 segment "starburst" type alphanumeric display, and
   it has a LOUD 10W of audio! The radio comes is two physical flavors,
   the under dash mount, and the remote head mount, both in either 56 or
   128 modes. To determine what type of VHF MCX1000 you are looking at,
   check out the VHF model breakdown chart.
   
   The service manual is OUTRAGEOUSLY PRICED, thanks Ma M., I know, I
   bought it. All you get is a fancy photocopy of the original, three
   hole punched to put in your own binder! If you really want to order
   it, the part number for the VHF version is 6802902A56.
   
   If all you need are the pinouts off the radio, check out the accessory
   connector , or the mic connector , or if you need to program it, check
   out the programming page.
   
   If you want to program some out of band frequencies into your radio
   (may not work to well, but you can try), it is quite simple. All you
   have to do is:
   
     * load the saved file for your radio into the RSS
     * go and change the bandsplit (same place it will let you change the
       model)
     * program the out of band frequencies into the channels you want
     * go change the bandsplit back to the proper one
     * program the radio.
       
   If you go and look at the channel(s) you changed while under the
   correct bandsplit, the software will have a fit and not display them,
   however, they are still there.
