Re: [Repeater-Builder] PL problems
If its like my MCC controller, it lost its mind and doesn't want to recognize its logic inputs ;) Also, check the audio into the PL board (green wire), make sure it has good discriminator audio on it.

You'd be better off finding something like a Mitrek or Micor or Mastr II turnk-mount mobile, or best, a real station (MSR-2000 is roughly equivalent to a Mitrek mobile), and making a repeater out of it. They are easy to duplex and interface to a tone panel. Also they have much better receivers for high profile sites. Besides, those radios are too nice to tie up on a fixed frequency repeater.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater for GMRS use-help needed??
The first you need to ask is if they are type excepted for repeater use on the GMRS freqs. I have yet to see any regular moblie radio's, from the factory, that were type accepted for use as a repeater in the gmrs area.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater for GMRS use-help needed??
Johnny, I havnt seen anything saying that you cant use 2 radio to make a repeater. I know most radios have about 50 watts output so the power should be turned down a bit to save that radio and help from people in the area complaining. I Do agree you should listen to the area for any other users that use close freqs. I would really check for FRS use with PL tones.I know in my area that 462.550 is not a highly used GMRS freq so I chose that.And the closest freq is 40 miles away and I talked with that owner to make sure we dont have the same PL tones.

No, most UHF mobiles are 25-35 watts, as are the radios he mentioned, but that is NOT continuous duty rated as is needed for a repeater. For repeater duty, it MUST be turned down or it will burn up. -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL Yahoo!

Be very careful,mobiles are not type accepted for repeater use in the GMRS or commercial band.

Hi Jim, For repeater duty, it MUST be turned down or it will burn up. And conversely, it mustn't be turned up or it will burn down. 73, Bob Yahoo!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater for GMRS use-help needed??
That odd Motorola and Maxon as well as many other sell repeater that are mobile radio is a housing. This is a very common thing and as long as the radio is type accepted then its fine. I have been in the LMR business for years and see lots of repeater that are 2 mobile in a box. I don't prefer this setup and would use a real repeater normally.
