Introduction
The Genesis Group has been working with Motorola in many special capacities since 1983. In the past 5 years, Genesis has been licensed by Motorola for very unusual things to carry on products that Motorola has dropped from their line. This chart is a compilation from many sources including Motorola technical manuals. So...while we cannot vouch for 100% accuracy, it is fairly good.
History
Motorola generally has two types of model number series that they have used over the last 15 years. As more models and features came out, they have revamped their scheme. We have broken this down into the two sections. Please be aware that there can be variations within each model, however most all radios follow the plan we show here.
A little help...
First is the Older Series. Below that is the Newer Series. We have color coded each element in the model number to help you find it in the chart.
| |
OLD SERIES |
Example:
D75SRA6B07BK |
|
| |
D |
Dash Mount |
D=Dash Mount
T=Trunk Mount
H=Handheld
|
| |
7 |
Transmit Power |
Varies by model number, but higher numbers mean higher power radios (7&8 are usually 100Watts)
|
| |
5 |
Radio Band |
1= 30-50Mhz
3= 150=174Mhz
4= 430-470Mhz

SRA |
Radio Model |
VBJ= Syntor X
SRA= Syntor
RTA= Micor

6B07 |
Options specific to that Model |
You must see the cross reference in each radio tech manual for a list of what is what.

The first letter is the Manufacturing Revision Series. The "K" seems to be a constant. |
A= first rev.
B= second rev., etc. |
