Thanks Mike for your reply,
The cool thing about the MCC converted stuff is that the controller is on
the inside of the GE. The only openings are holes that are drilled above
the pa section for a fan. There is a harness but it is for the remote
base which plugs into the db-15 on the front of the thing. Of course you
have the power cables....but that is it.
I am afraid I will have to "borrow" a trunking scanner to find this
problem...or the lack there of if it is not overload.
Thanks,
Robert
ps I like your isp! (bluesbrothers.net). Bones Malone is suppose to be
here next week to play with a community band in South Metro ATL. Love
Blues Brothers ;-)

Can you get details on the trunking equipment that feeds the
new antenna? Maybe park a scanner on the channel? (channels?)
If you have problems only when the scanner says the channel is live,
then you have it...
And it may not be front end overload...
Years ago I had a UHF repeater at a site and another group moved
a 2m box into the adjacent cabinet. No problems... I swapped out
controllers one day (which required building a new harness) and
all of a sudden had a new problem... That's when I discovered that
you don't make audio harness a 1/4 wave long when you have a
250w transmitter 3 feet away...
