Re: [Repeater-Builder] vhf cellwave
I don't think you will get the capacitance and base loading coil to work on 222 band from 154, that is a large step - I think hustler has a g6 or g7 on 222.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Z-Matcher
Hi Chuck and gang Here are some values for 2 meters (GE MASTRII)air variable cap 2-14 pF with fixed 15pF in paralell to ground on input side next 3 to 4 turns #14 wire wound about 3/8" to a air veriable 2-24 pF in paralell with 10 pF fixed to ground on the out put side. for UHF the fixed caps are deleted. I would use 2-30pF air veriables for VHF and leave out the fixed units. The veriables are adjusted and the coil can be compressed or expanded to make adjustments. 73 AC0Y --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "Chuck Kelsey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Seems with all the talk on here about the benefits of using an impedance > matcher at the repeater's transmitter output, someone could come up with > some construction information for the group. > > Chuck > WB2EDV Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Bad price from Cook!
Title: Message Hey Jeff, Just to bring you up to date, Andrews bought DB and move the whole plant to Mexico. I just got off the phone with DB to fine out if Cook has a pike of these in a warehouse some where (NOS)or are they new. The reply is that they buy enough to have them made. I called Cook and they said they can still get them. So I guess they are buying a pile of them. The two we bought came from there Delaware warehouse but I sent the money order to NJ. Any way that is all that I found out today. Good luck and 73! One thing COOK better give me a big price break on the next thing I get from them after all this .

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Z-Matcher
I just bought a Z-Matcher from EMR and installed it on my repeater. It didn't improve the situation over my 61" lead between transmitter and duplexer but I was able to match random lengths of coax to the same performance. So it works! The cost of this little box was well under $100 including shipping to Canada. I wouldn't build one myself unless I had the parts kicking around or had some special enclosure/connector requirements. It's one of those things where the parts really are a significant chunk of the cost of the item. > An excellent idea!

Hey Russ, how is she ordering them from DB? I thought that they quit making them for the ham bands. MikeRuss Stafford wrote: Hello All, I just got a call from Kathy Cook, AB2LF of Cook towers. She ask that I let every one know about an incorrect price they had given out to a few Hams on the list. Well here goes. The DB-420 list price is $925.00 and the Ham price is $814.00 cut to your Ham pair in the 443.??? range or any where between 406 and 512 MHz. I do not work for Cook nor do I get paid by them this is just an FYI for every one on the list. Very best of 73 Russ, W3CHTrustee, W3PSMetro-Comm, INCRepeater Network. Yahoo!
