PORTABLE RADIO
The MTX-900 series portable radio fromMotorola, Inc., operates on both trunkedand conventional radio systems. It offers theadditional benefit of functioning as a port-able telephone.

These radios provide call-alert paging(decode), using distinct audible tones toinform the user that an incoming call is spe-cifically for that user.
The radio includes an audio-enhancement feature, which providesclearer communication by minimizing dis-tortion and the popping sound that some-times occurs in radio-voice reception.
The MTX-900 Model 84 is offered with akeypad that allows access to local tele-phone lines for half-duplex conversations.This enables the radio to function as a port-able telephone in either the conventional ortrunked mode.MOTOROLA, INC., COMMUNICATIONS SECTORCircle 113 on Postage Free Card

CALCINED·CLA YSOIL AMENDMENT
Duraplay, a calcined-clay soil amend-ment manufactured by Sportsfields, Inc.,can help solve three major problemsregarding the playability of athletic fields.
According to the manufacturer, the soilamendment drains more than twice as fastas sand, so excess water vanishes fastenough to resume play following adownpour.
It reduces compaction to provide a bettergrowing medium for the turf. The amend-ment also improves footing on the skinnedareas, improves the playability of the sur-faces, and reduces maintenance on theskinned surfaces.
In addition, it corrects moisture retentionfor a healthier turf, improved rooting, andless watering.SPORTSFIELDS, INC.Circle 118 on Postage Free Card
SOD REPLACEMENT TOOL
Replace damaged sod quickly and.cleanly with the Turf Doctor from StandardGolf Company. Simply step the four razor-sharp blades into the ground and remove awedge-shaped block of sod.
Seams of the replaced sod can barely beseen, and the patched areas are heldsecurely as the wedged shape leaves apyramid of the original soil between thepatches.
The galvanized-steel implement causesvery little root damage. The square sodblocks can be butted against one anotherwith no unsightly holes or gaps. Repairedgolf greens can be played on immediately.

SPORTS TURF ROTOR
Featuring outstanding close-in wateringand a superior distance-of-throw, the RainBird R-70 Rotor is designed for operation onany large turfgrass application.
The model's self-cleaning, water-lubricated piston drive allows sandy oreffluent water to pass straight through therotor, minimizing costly service and down-time. In addition, the piston drive uses lessthan two percent of the water passingthrough the unit to drive the head, increas-ing distance of throw without increasingpressure requirements.
The color-coded, interchangeable noz-zles contribute to the increased distance ofthrow by minimizing water turbulence. Thenozzles also ensure excellent close-inwatering by providing improved water distri-bution from the rotor to the end of thestream.
Other features of the rotor include theSeal-A-Matic (SAM) check valve, whichensures zero water loss by eliminating low-head drainage. The SAM device can holdup to 15 feet of head. A low angle of trajec-tory (23 degrees) and a constant rotationspeed mean minimal wind interference andwater loss, as well as even distribution thatis not affected by pressure fluctuations.
For added safety and vandal resistance,the rotor features a small, 2112-inchexposed-case diameter. In addition, anoptional rubber cap provides extra protec-tion against injury.
Available in full- and part-circle models,the rotor has a maximum pop-up height of31/4inches, making it ideal for tall grass. Arcadjustment of 15 to 355 degrees on thepart-circle model requires no tools.RAIN BIRD SALES, INC.Circle 125 on Postage Free Card
