You can make the IDA controller MASTRII work for you, but you aren't going to find a drop-in controller. Look at:
http://www.qsl.net/w4xe/rpttech/rpttech21.htm for some good information about how to do it. I have a UHF MASTRII with an IDA controller here that has been an ongoing project for many years. It keeps getting pushed to the back of the pile, mainly because the Maggiore repeater that the MASTRII is suppose to replace never failed. The IDA controller came in several versions, I have the repeater version in mine. You must leave the IDA controller in place because it supplies the 10 Volts DC that is required to run the MASTRII. I would leave the IDA controller functional, except for cutting the PTT lead to the transmitter. That way you can use the speaker in the IDA controller for a monitor. I plan to leave my IDA functional and have it as a back-up controller that I can switch online. 73, Joe, K1ike Michael Cox wrote: >> Ralph (and others) >> >> So is there a IDA equipped version the controller?
