One earpiece has a crack but other than that its a nice piece. For parts only as I have no way to test. Motorola still manufactured MTS equipment well into the 1970’s, but did so only to accommodate companies which were still using MTS systems, primarily those using the low band 35/43 MHz “Z” channels which never went to IMTS. These MTS radios were essentially traditional push-to-talk 2-way mobile radio chassis with an external decoder and a mobile telephone style control head. Below is a photo of a Motorola head used by Pacific Telephone with a 35/43 MHz special production “Micor” radio, from 1974. Only two channels were installed, ZM and ZY. The other two pushbuttons were blocked from operating. This was the last product Motorola manufactured for manual mobile telephone use. It is believed that most of the subscribers on Pacific Telephone’s Z Channel low band system by the 1970’s were telephone company personnel. You can see that the head is actually an “MK” rotary dial head modified with a plate over the dial cutout, which blanks the dial area and provides the channel-change pushbuttons and lamps. Bought this with the intention to restore it and put it in my car, that dream died so my loss is your gain. I basically wiped the dust off it, it will need a good bath.
