If this site http://www.kmcnet.net/kmc_odd_manuals.htm  is correct
then I was misinformed by the person from whom I bought the FM-50M.
Sigh.

"Model FM50A - VHF Receiver / Transmitter High Band  147-174Mhz"

The six meter version is listed:
"Model FM60A - VHF Receiver / Transmitter Low Band  25-54Mhz"

I do not have the parts but as you can see from the picture
there is nothing especially fancy about the grille that
would prevent fabrication of a replacement..

2M FM ... hmmm ... 146.520 Simplex base rig .... hmmm.
