The model you are looking at only goes up to 470 MHz.

You need one that has an S in place of the R in the model number. That will do 450-512.

There is a way to take a R split and move it up a little. I've done this with a S split to bring it down to 440.

You have to modify the software to allow it though

The OP wants to go up 8 MHz. Not sure if the software mod will allow that.

But, in this case, I would strongly suspect that it would be MUCH better to just get the right radio. There are plenty of them on Ebay all the time.

I agree with you. I was just merely saying it could be done. My 1250 S split will tx down to 440 MHz that's 10 below but I haven't tested it on rx that low.

You should also provide more details such as the intended use. Do you want to transmit with this radio? Is the system you want to program a Ltr system for example? How are you going to have this radio programmed? Is this a digital system or analog? Before buying a eBay radio and asking for suggestions you need to give as much info as possible on your intended use.
