Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: A heads-up to repeater owners
It just figures. I don't read my e-mail for a few days and there is a topic I can really offer some input about... OH Well, better late than never I guess. I have one of these receivers up at a local repeater and it works wonderfully. I will try to get to the site today (Friday) and take some pictures so I can build a page for the RB site that describes the interface I made. It really works nice. I mounted a BNC on the back for an external antenna connection and have a DB-9 mounted in the case for the connections to the controller. Please stand by..

[Repeater-Builder] (Icom-2at) Portable Radio Repeaters
Very true... or you need to park at least a decent front end on the receiver (and shield the radio in a metal box). Hamtronics makes a rather interesting (neat) helical filter preamp that does the job on some modest preformance receivers. (or get the helical without the preamp) The wide band front end capacity of the Icom-2at portables are not happy with a transmitter nearby. You have to provide more than the stock/factory front end protection to most portables... tis the nature of most portable radios. The MVP has a much better receiver front end vs the Icom Handheld. The Icom portables can be made to play in "a poor mans repeater", but you will need to help the receiver survive the trip.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Kenwood TKR-820
Re: Kenwood TKR-820 Well... The logic output is an unbuffered line on the Signaling unit (the small repeater/ctcss controller board) uP. There are actually two lines, one labeled TOR and Tone, I believe they are next to each other. The TOR line comes out to a small unused solder pad. It's all surface mount circuitry, so be extra carefull. [thank you to Juan for the inforatmion about the TOR line] I tried to measure the transistion of the TOR line with various types of programming and signaling options. I could not get the TOR logic to change state. I have two or three revisions of the tkr-820 manual, some have different signaling board versions, it's possible one version might output a valid ctcss "QT" indication, but I have yet solve that issue. If your TOR logic functions, it would be possible to remove R38 (in the normal COR logic line), a zero ohm jumper/resistor and tie the regular COR logic to the TOR uP output. This mod is not for the faint of heart... R38 is a surface mount part on the under side of the pc board. The more practical fix: If you are using one valid ctcss tone, a com spec decoder on the Descrimnator output pin might be in order. I called Kenwood Tech Support (I'm an Authorized Kenwood Sales & Service Shop) and they faxed me over a small bit of information related to the accessory plug and some descriptions of the "W" jumpers on the Signaling board. But nothing to address a Tone - Digital Code detect logic output. The Service Manuals I have here are bit thin on the W3/W4 and various jumper options. So I've ordered a few sets of new and current 820/720 repeater service manuals to resolve the board revision fun. Pin 13 of the accessory jack outputs a logic transition with any on frequency rx signal. Be carefull when interfacing they pin 13 voltage. It's a voltage transition of about ~ 3.95 volts no signal to about ~ .4 volts with a received signal. It's easy to damage the circuitry, so a buffer circuit should be built and used. I've designed what I call a universal cor circuit, which doesn't care what voltage transition a logic output line makes. You connect it to the circuit and quickly set one simple adjustment. The board output is known buffered logic output levels and operates from ~3.5 volt to 32.5 volt supplies without mods. More on this as the pc boards arrive... If you'd like to use a tkr-820 or tkr-720 with an external controller, program the repeater for carrier squelch, connect the controller to the accessory jack along with an external ctcss/dcs encoder/decoder board. There are three "audio output" signals on the jack, one is discriminator audio, one a gated receiver audio and the third is rmt speaker output. Using the above, the Repeat, Monitor and Take-over buttons on the front panel will be in the "out" position. I'll look at the repeater builder text to see if any additional information is available. cheers, skipp skipp025 at yahoo.com ps: Email me direct if you need a real hardcopy of the latest 720/820 manual.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] connectors
You hit it squarely on the head! A PROPERLY INSTALLED CONNECTOR! Both are good when installed correctly. It is amazing that some techs do not know how to solder correctly and some will use any crimp tool to get the job done in a hurry. With one exception, a crimp connector will not last as long as a properly installed soldered connector in off shore, salt water installations.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Mobile Duplexers
The C. A. P. used to use 143.90 for an input and 148.15 for an output for their repeaters. These were their legacy frequencies from the AM days. They used to have a repeater at Chanute Field on those frequencies and may still for all I know. I have not been involved with the C. A. P. for thirty years now so they may have some other VHF frequencies by now. We used to use some Genave units for C. A. P. and they were very broad banded. As far as mobile duplexers are concerned, I have built two meter mobile repeaters from Micors with 600 kHz. splits just by using two antennas and no duplexer. They worked just fine, especially if you bypass the last amplifiers in the transmitter and run ten or twenty watts or so. If you are going to have a temporary repeater set up somewhere just stick up two antennas and try for some vertical separation. Put the receive antenna on top. You may have to experiment a bit with the transmit antenna placement. Use decent coax. This probably won't work with typical ham-grade equipment but I've had success using Micors. Mastr II's would probably work, too. Plan "B" would be to forget about VHF and go to 440. Everything is smaller there.

A key advantage of the 2.5 MHz split that I use is that at that spacing the G.E.

By the way Juan, the signaling unit pin for TOR and the one next to it didn't supply Tone Indication logic. I had to do it another way. I've also ordered a supply of latest revision hard copy tkr-820 manuals to have around. The various board revisions had me pulling hair for a time. cheers, skipp skipp025 at yahoo.com www.radiowrench.com/sonic > XE2SI <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What will be the conroller, maybe I can help you, > have done it in few Repeaters > from Kenwood and Motorola. > Juan > - Original Message - > From: Frederick E.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Mobile Duplexers
Jim can you give me more details, like what model # to look for. The only time it will be portable will be 2 times a year, for 2 one day events where no one repeater will get into. But setting it up on this one site covers the entire we need communications. Then it goes back to it normal site. This is a small Motorola GR 300 repeater mounted in a 42" tall GE cabinet. This unit puts out 15 watts - not high power. Rod KC7VQR Hi Jim, I really don't want to argue with you, but it can be done and I've done it numerous times. It all comes down to a number game (the specs) and a reasonable approach. I've used surplus Decibel mobile duplexer's in narrow split operation for years. If properly set up and secured, they should not detune. Portable two meter repeaters can work pretty well, if you approach the project with reasonable expectations. Many/most of the common "flat-pack" VHF duplexers are designed for wide splits. Some combinations of the small & mid size Harris, Decibel, Sinclair and Phelps-Dodge packages can be set up or modified to operate narrow splits. The preformance will not be spectacular, but the repeater will work ok. cheers, skipp skipp025 at yahoo.com www.radiowrench.com/sonic Yahoo!
