Maybe it was just mine.
<--I've seen many T1500 series duplexers that have the wrong cable kits on them for the frequency range being tuned. I'm not saying this is the case with you but it seems many folks who buy them don't understand the color coding of the cable kits. These are CRITICAL to proper performance. I have a couple of T-1504As and each one does > 102 Db notches with < 1.5 Db insertion loss. No slouch but of course, I have the correct cables installed :-) Ken ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ President and CTO - Arcom Communications Makers of state-of-the-art repeater controllers and accessories. http://www.ah6le.net/arcom/index.html We now offer complete Kenwood TKR repeater packages!
