Re: [Repeater-Builder] please identify unknown 222Mhz repeater equipment
Chris, This looks like an old VHF Engineering repeater. Popular in the 1970's. I had one each on VHF and UHF. Not bad for the price and vintage, but a bear to keep stable. I no longer have any docs on the stuff as they went with the equipment when it was sold. As I recall, the tx was about 25 watts with the PA option, 2.5 watts without. Hope this helps. 73, Rich Rich Poczkalski WB2DSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] In GOD we trust, all others we run NCIC ``` Two rules for success in life: 1) Don't tell people everything you know. 2) ``` - Original Message - From: Chris Peterson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Cc: Curt Phelps [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 16, 2005 10:24 AM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] please identify unknown 222Mhz repeater equipment All, Please help me identify this unknown 222 TX and RX.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] duplexer tuning - help
At 07:23 PM 4/15/2005 -0700, you wrote: The problem with the stability is that most of these were constructed using a Galvinised steel rod to set the tuning correct? I solved that problem by putting some slop into the connection between the rod and the plunger. It's kind of hard to explain, but I put two nuts on the threaded rod above the plunger, and two nuts below the plunger. I then locked each set of nuts so that the plunger had about 1/16 of play on the threaded rod. This made tuning a little more difficult. If you past either the notch or the peak, you had to back up and take out the slack before the tuning went the other way. Once I had it tuned, I turned the threaded rod one-half the distance that it took to take out the slack. At this point, the top nuts and bottom nuts are not touching the threaded rod. Therefore, there was no thermal pull on the plunger when the galvanized rod changed length. By now, you are probably wondering why I went through all the trouble! First, 22oMhz duplexers were hard to come by in the 1980's. Second, I'm a very stubborn person and I was going to figure out a way to keep them stable. 73, Joe, K1ike Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] What have I got here? Micor mobile
It's VHF but who knows Maybe it's one of those for high VHF. I'm going to pursue making a 222 repeater out of it. After I tackle the UHF conversion. I'll take some pics of it on Sunday and upload them to the files section.

And why not? No need for two synthesizers in a mobile. In fact, I can't say I know of any mobiles that use two. The base station may be 20% with the fan. I'm pretty sure the mobile is 5% (no fan).

[Repeater-Builder] Adding TD-5 Decoder to Hamtronics REP100
I just bought the Hamtronics TD-5 Encoder/Decoder to install in my Hamtronics REP-100 220mHz Repeater. I have been reading the manual that came with the TD-5 Encoder/Decoder and cross referencing it with the Hamtronic R220 VHF FM Rcvr and COR-3 Manuals and I am getting more confused with each reading. I did not build this unit so I am not fully familliar with it. It has been kerchunking itself pretty regularly the last 6 months and I want to install the receive decoder to help eliminate some (if not all) of the problems. Maybe after I get this working I can get some insight into connecting it to the Touch-Tone to turn it on and off; I am the weakest link... ;-) Can anyone offer me some advice?

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: please identify unknown 222Mhz repeater equipment
Yep - and it's a good one too. It has the optional narrow filter in it. I have a manual for it I believe. Used to have one, wasn't all that bad actually. Repeater audio sounded good. I think I still have the ID board somewhere here. Used to double up the diodes to shift gears on the CW id, about the same time they came out with the codeless tech.

No - I'm saying in a mobile there is no need for duplex operation, so why not '(save) a dollar or two on the cost' when you're not affecting the operation of the mobile? There was no need for two synthesizers, so you can't fault them for not designing it with two. Yes - most REPEATERS have two. You don't have a repeater there, though - you have a mobile, albeit in a cabinet with external controls and a power supply. It's still not a repeater. Joe M.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] GE Delta/Ranger Wall mount
You're not understanding what I'm saying. You said (still quoted at bottom) Would be nice if there was two, guess GE saved a dollar or two on the cost. It's not fair to blame GE for there only being one synthesizer. It's a mobile (or a base in your configuration). It's not a repeater and was never meant to be a repeater, so there was no need for two synthesizers. Do you think they should have put two in because someday someone might want to make a duplex repeater out of it? There was no need for two, so it's not fair to blame them for saving the cost. Joe M.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] GE Delta/Ranger Wall mount
OK - so it's a wall mount RANGR - actually, a wall mount RANGR 450. Those have very low duty cycles. Again, they may have increased it when combined with the fan. Still, not good in any respect for repeater use. If it's that big of a deal, get the crystals on an emergency basis (48 hours). You will have as much work tied up in making the temporary repeater as you would spend in money for the expedited crystal service. Joe M.
