Re: [Repeater-Builder] tait t2010
Hi Ian Yes it is possible. You will have to add an inexpensive additional ctcss encoder.Link the cos of the reciever to both the transmitter and the tone board.If you you have experience in ctcss board installtions it should be straight forward.After that with the help of a schematic follow the PTT line until you can add a simple CAPACITOR electrolitic -normalli\y on the input to a switching opamp. The second way is to allow the transmitter to ptt with a tail-use the cos line to "mute" the ctcss tone in and around the sub audible pot on the txco board.

An antenna's effective aperture (related to length for a colinear) establishes the directivity, & hence the maximum possible gain. If an antenna is only 10 ft. long, it can't possibly have 7 dBi of gain at 146 MHz. Whenever I see an antenna gain figure expressed only as dB, I assume dBi. Bob NO6B Yahoo!

[Repeater-Builder] tait t2010
hi guys i am wondering if there is a way to setup or to program a t2010 to transmit a tail without the ctcss tail on the end of a transmission (ie to be used as the transmitter in a a repeater so while the receiver receives a signal it activates the t2010 transmitter with a ctcss ,and when the receive signal ceases the transmitter continues with a 1-2 second tail without the ctcss ).At the moment i have 2 t2010 connected direct through so while a signal is received the transmitter transmitts with the ctcss Thank you Ian Wells Kerinvale Comaudio mail service 1017, Biloela,4715. www.kerinvalecomaudio.com.au 1-email- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2-email- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!

When referring to antenna gain, most people would reference it to " X dB over a dipole/quarter wave/isotropic/rubber duckie/wet noodle/dummy load/whatever. So, when someone says it has "zero" gain (no gain in dB), it must be the same as the reference (whatever that is). If it has less than zero (dB) gain, then the antenna would show a "loss" as opposed to the reference antenna. A good example would be a 2M rubber duck compared to a dipole. Here we see that the duck exhibits "less than zero gain" or in other words, a loss. It's confusing because people don't always put the "dB" after it. Sometimes we're as bad as the antenna manufacturers. :) Joe __ Do you Yahoo!? Vote for the stars of Yahoo!'s next ad campaign! http://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/yahoo/votelifeengine/ Yahoo!

Transmitter is a QT-6700, receiver is an MPAC. Currently tuned and xtal'd in the ham band. Comes with the following: ACC RC850 controller (V 3.42 firmware), with Voice Telemetry & autopatch Icom IC22U 2 meter remote base radio TX/RX 4 can BP/BR Duplexer (I believe it is a TX/RX Systems) Cellwave 3 port circulator Switching power supply with battery back up switchover Spare MPAC receiver Everything installed in their 6' steel rack. Some pics are available (although some items shown are not included, specifically the link radio): http://www.ah6le.net/repeater.html It is located in the metro Portland, OR area. Can be shipped for around $150 (estimated). This is a complete turnkey system. Just re-xtal and retune (provided you don't want it on its current channel pair) If interested,write me offlist for pricing or any other info. -- President and CTO - Arcom Communications Makers of state-of-the-art repeater controllers and accessories. http://www.ah6le.net/arcom/index.html AH6LE/R - IRLP Node 3000 http://www.irlp.net Yahoo!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Omnidirectional antenna into 2m band
Once again we see references to gain without the actually reference pointed out. There is a big difference between dBi (dB over an Isotropic, non-existent antenna) and dBd (dB over a dipole, real antenna). Gregg R.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Micor low band base
It might load up with a good SWR, but will it radiate? I know the discussion is about base antennae, but when I was on 6M FM, I tried using Antenna Specialists, DB Products, and Larsen base-loads for 42-50, and each's performance was dismal when compared to a quarter wave whip. As I recall, even an LM-150 cut for two-meters worked better than the the 42-50 base loads. If it was easy enough to modify the coil, I'd try do that and keep a longer radiator.
