George, As some have said it will need retuning for that much move and a test set is a good thing to have for this. Makes life so much easier.
I have tuned Micors with a voltmeter, analog works best, and typically if one sees in the manual to set the test set selector switch to say position 3 then pin 3 on the test connector is what is read so it can be done. The receiver is not as troublesom with high out put sig gen. One can peak the tuning coils/caps reducing the sig output as you go. The transmitter is another critter for you will have no or very little power out until the final stages of tuning and then power pops up. Some Micor PAs have some tuning and really need manual for this. I have gotten close by using HT with S meter, but the test set makes it so easy. Start with the oscillators first. 73, ron, n9ee/r --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "n3gh_1" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Gentlemen, > Appreciate some direction. > I first connected a controller and tested this unit on it's original > frequency pair (460.625 Mhz +) successfully.
