Re: [Repeater-Builder] PA question
Lots of RG-174 or Radioshack RG-58 coax makes a good pad, I just did it with a repeater here on two meters. You will have to figure the loss, which would be a lot of coax. For example to cut your power down from 40 watts to 1/2 watt you would need, and this is approximate, about 175 feet of Belden RG8216, and if using RG58 from Radioshack you would need at least 375 feet of coax.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] PA question
I had the same thought... most Moto's are 50 ohms throughout the various stages of the PA.. not sure about the Maxtrac... but a pile of RG-58 in a paint can with chassis connectors in the lid might work... if you only use the driver stage, shouldn't be that much line... a commercial pad would be better though. Much cleaner installation.. about 9dB (assuming 3W) should get you close.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] PA question
Why not look on ebay for a Maxtrac with a blown PA deck - look for one with low power output, or couldn't test the TX, so it's sold as is If you bypass the final and jumper the driver to the output filter you'll have a 3-4w TX - and at a good price.

It would make more sense to bypass driver stages in the amplifier, or find another amplifier.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] PA question
Matt, I guess I am not the only one missing part of the intended info... 1.Jumper around the final.. according toKevin output is now 3W 2.Next put an attenuator inline to get the3W down to 350 mils to 500 mils. 9dB should leave approx 325 mils. There are mini-circuits pads available SMA in SMA out that will handle the job with ease. And they are cheap to acquire. 3. Don't forget to leave the filter in-line as well.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] PA question
Yes,that will work.All are 50 ohm nominal in and out on the GE. The driver board does have some neat controls that you will lose,like the thermal and reflected power protection circuits. I'd stick with the 40 watts,its plenty! We never use more than 25 watts and usually 5 does the job. Try this experiment on your repeater,reduce its power output by 3db and see if anyone noticed,I doubt they will unless on the extreme fringes.YMMV! - Original Message - From: Joe Montierth [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, July 14, 2004 11:49 AM Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] PA question kbednar99 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm using a Motorla Maxtrac for a 2 meter remote base, currently running 40 watts.

Kevin K2KMB There's some good ideas that have been given so far, and they will probably work fine. My thought is to look at the PA itself and see if there is a stage or two you can bypass and run the 40 watt Maxtrax direct to the finals of the PA. IIRC, and I'm not a MASTRII man, it seems that the first board in the PA boosts the 200 mW to 25-40 watts to drive the final PA transistors. Couldn't you bypass that board, hooking full Maxtrac power to that point? Your final output power could then be adjusted by setting the Maxtrac power. If this could work, all that should be needed is to remove the jumper in the PA from the 40 watt stage to the 100 watt stage, and remove the input and bypass it to the 100 watt finals. Some of you MII people chime in here. I'm going to look for a book today and see if this would work. If this won't work, no flames please, like I said I'm not an MII expert, but I do play one on TV. :) Joe __ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] PA question
Mike, if you don't want to cut the maxtrac up, using the coax works just fine, I had the same issue, and I knew the coax would do the trick, but I wanted to make sure there would be no desence. Cut the power down on your transmitter to as low as it will go before it gets any spurs, so that the power out is clean, then reduce the rest with the coax. I did not even put mine in a can or metal box, hangs on the side of the cabinet, and I have no problems at all. My atnenna with a height of only 60' is usable for about 30 miles mobile, and about 10 miles handi-talkie, and works no problem. Just don't use cheap connectors, make sure they are good and tight, and you will be fine. Good luck.

[Repeater-Builder] Astron Over Voltage or Crowbar issues
I've read the description on the repeater builder website of the astron issues and circuits, but not sure if that will solve what I'm currently experiencing. I've got a 50 amp rack mount supply, the problem with them is that if there is much of a load or draw on them when you DO restore AC power, they go into this protect mode. I've got a couple small radios on them, but when power comes on there is an immediate current draw and that seems to lock the power supply down. The only way I have found to get it back is to turn it off, disconnect the load, plug it in, then hook the load back up. Is it all the same issue and will the overvotage circuit solve that as well?

Now, for the last PA, I wonder if the model number is correct. My MSF5000 manual does not list a TTE1552A, but it does list a TTE1522A. The TLE1522A is a 40 watt continuous duty PA for 435-475 MHz. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY njcabletek wrote: Ive got a few PA's Im wondering if someone can help me identify.

[Repeater-Builder] Monster Heatsinks
Hi Guys: Anyone interested in a couple HUGE Aluminum heatsinks from a smoked 250 watt repeater amp? Each heatsink is 20 long, 8 wide by 3.5 high and weigh about 8Kg (~17 pounds). If you need pictures, let me know. My USB ports died, so I can't transfer the pictures from my camera to the computercouple days before the pictures are available. I also have a couple 88 split (450 to 470) Mastr Exec II mobiles that I'm parting out. Let me know what you need. I'll only ask once, then they go to Ebay. PLEASE reply off list.
