Collins, The Mot test set is basically a meter with a switch and of course the properly wired cable to plug directly into the rig. The test set also switches in the correct resistor combinations to get proper movement. Also the manual follows and instructs based on the test set.
When tuning some instructions say tune for a dip. Often these dips are slight, barely seen. After practice the tech gets use to this, but you should note this. Some see a small dip and ignor it, but it is what is tuned for. Also typical digital meters reaction is slow. I find an old meter with analog meter best if don't have test set. What band and freq is your Mitrek on??? 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Date: 2008/03/03 Mon PM 06:30:44 CST >To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Mitrek tune up > >Dear Friends, >Has anyone tuned a Mitrek receiver using the manual?
