Band ~ A ~ 25.165 - 25.605
Band ~ B ~ 25.615 - 26.055
Band ~ C ~ 26.065 - 26.505
Band ~ D ~ 26.515 - 26.955
Band ~ E ~ 26.965 - 27.405
Band ~ F ~ 27.415 - 27.855
Band ~ G ~ 27.865 - 28.305

And is this included in the Copper expand , align, and tune?

yes, the S3, 6 & 9 radios can have any 8 of the 11 available bands programmed into any position on the band selector switch you'd like.
you'd have to ask copper if they'll more then just the normal expansion.

Sorry but no the Copper Tech will not do any modifications that could or would void the factory warranty on any radio.

What I was trying to get at is what mobile radios line up bandwise with the 3200B after the expansion?? Also just what does the Copper expand, align, and tune consist of??

852,
Most all Magnum Radios have the same bands of coverage but I honestly do not remember if it matches the S-3200-B.
Different manufactures have different frequency coverage/bands after conversion so they may not match the magnum conversion bands A/B/C/D/E/F exactly wise all will still cover the CB/11 meter Band/Channels in order from 1 thru 40 and generally below and above 1 thru 40.
After the expand option here are the areas that the Copper Tech will align.
• RX (Receive) alignment per manufacturer specifications
• TX (Transmit) alignment per manufacturer specifications
• PLL Synthesizer alignment per manufacturer specifications
Hope this help's,

high.on the s-45 it numbered 0-10 any higher
than 1 it does squeal,HOWEVER on 1 its plenty
loud.even with my rk56 its only on a 2.im
not familar with the s3 is the talkback variable?
if so just set it till it squeals then back it off till it stops.what i did with mine
