Tom -  Good start, but often there is a clipper right after this mic
amplifier, and putting PL tone in here can easily lead to it being
clipped and generating a LOT of harmonics in the Audio region.  More
often, the PL tone should be tied into the modulator past the clipper
(it's never a very high level so it shouldn't overmodulate) and adjust
your voice modulation down just a tad to compensate for the PL tone.

P-50, and a Ritron. Both are set up on the American Red Cross frequencies of
47.42 simplex and 47.46 simplex. Only 2 channels, no PL on either one. Also,
with the Ritron, I have a mobile linear amp that kicks the output up to 30w.
I have all the docs on the Ritron, so it should be fairly easy to tweak up
from 47 to 52. The Motorola, I have no idea.
  Oh, I'll also toss in a new Larsen LMO-50 base coil, coax, and emitter.
  Interested? :-)
