I have done the same thing but have used a 7404 TTL level inverter. But if your COS level goes any higher then about 5.5vdc you will blow the 7404. I also like using the NTE2358 Digital transistor it has all the bias resistors build in and is a snap to hook up and put in service.

That circuit actually should work fine. All it is doing is reversing  the logic of your COS signal. When COS is present (+5V), 0V will be present at the output, +5V will be at the output when COS is not present.

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] COS Logic Circuit

I have a question about logic circuits.  I have a Yaesu FT 1500 that has the data port on the back and I want to use the 1500 as a temporary receiver in my repeater while the acutal receiver is out for repairs. Here is my problem, the data output port has a COS pin out (Carrier=5 volts, none = 0 volts) My contoller port says, Receive COS (pull this input low when receiving). 

 

So I need to turn my positive logic signal to a negative logic signal.  I found this circuit to do the the opposite of what I need ( http://www.repeater-builder.com/pix/cosswitch.gif ) Can I and if so how can I modify this to produce the positive logic with no signal and negative logic when a carrier is present.

 

Or is my line of thinking completely out of line?
Thank you.
