I remember working on these when they were used on low band AM VHF main sites as point to point links but they were definitely VHF high band FM on around 154MHz. Unless I am confusing them with a similar model. It's a long time ago and a lot of Pye equipment had similar panel designs. The ones I looked after had a link receiver next to them in the rack and worked as a pair. I remember a mod coming out from our HQ to replace the power indicator lamp with an LED, to save changing the bulb when it failed.
