Odds are...your car didn't have an 800 MHz setup. Do you know what Troop it was in?

The brackets that set the JSS switchboxes back from the dash were usually just fabbed up. There's an interior pic in the resto doc of a car with a tower setup, but those were few and far between.

It was in either troop K or L. I am going to call theas suggested here to norrow it down. I did se there were 3 mounting holes for the trunking unit. I'll take some pics of the holes on the dash and psot them. thanks.

Do you know when it came out of service? Troop L didn't get them until 1998, and only the S. Florida Troop K cars got them. Here's a link to the 800 MHz usage chart:

Well, all I know so far is that it was inspected in Fort Lauderdale its entire time while it was in service except the first time when it was shipped to Tallehasse after purchased from the dealer.

Ok...sounds like it could have had both radios. What year was it sold?

Don't forget to check for the build sheet when you rip up the carpet.

How many holes are in your dash? And can you tell where your antennas were mounted? Troop K usually had theirs on the rear quarters. My car came from troop K and had only four screw holes in the dash, no large access hole. Everything was mounted on a plate and the wires were dressed down the side of the dash and then under. Click on my fotki album below and it will give you some idea.

Well, I started the dismantling and you guessed it. The dso tag has broken off. Just about 1" of it left under the main buck tag. The good news is thanks to several people here I am a lot further along than I would have been. Thanks!
