Get a 'Bi-Metal' hole-saw bit, available at most hardware stores, slightly
more expensive than wood hole-saw bits. Many brands available, I've been
happy with DeWalt, but I'm sure any one of them will do a good job.

Subject: IC-X2A mods needed
To: ham-equip@ucsd.edu
I was wondering if anyone had any mods for the IC-X2A.
FTP.CS.BUFFALO.EDU did not have any for this radio; however,
I noticed that the IC-W2A had one for cross band repeat.
If a cross band repeat or other mods exist for this radio,
I would sure like to hear about them.
Thanks,

Can anyone help me with a brief description
of how to enter and change frequencies in a
Motorola Sabre mobile transceiver? I found
a service manual for the radio but it doesn't
explain how to program the unit.
