Minitor IV Pager Frequency Programming

[askolits]

I have a Minitor IV With a frequency of 497.05. I’m thinking about buying a programming unit to re-program it to 453.300.
But it seems the frequency breaks, for different pagers, may not allow me to do this.
Even though it’s a UHF pager, it may need a new board inorder to program it to that frequency range.

Is this correct?

You are correct. The pagers come in different sub bands. If its at 497 mhz now, you won't be able to get it down to 453 mhz.

I was just talking to someone who said you can re-program it, but you need a new RF board which can be purchased seprately.

Now anything with regard to this?
