Re: [Repeater-Builder] off topic : Jack Gerritsen ex kg6iro
I believe so, kg6iro was busted for jamming bell police dept and the califronia highway patrol, the fcc revoked his ham & grms licences but it was over 1 year from his conviction date and he contested that the fcc did not act in a timely manner and stated his licences were still valid, and in protest he started broadcasting taped messages on all the local repeaters and on the linked systems it carried to several states. He also has done this to MARS and other services. one occasion he went in to the LA vets hospital and droped off one of his jamming packages, (a handheld and a tape recorder) the vet hosp police detained him and called the bomb squad to destroy the suspicious package, and they billed him for that action also. you can find more info on this guy at arrl.org .bob ___ Try Juno Platinum for Free!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] 7K controller
Hi Juan, Your e-mail address was bouncing messages back to Yahoogroups so it delisted you. I've reinstated your membership. The 7K can operate two repeaters by tying a second repeater to the link port. It'll handle the CORs and PTTs, send messages to the proper TX (if the messages are composed correctly), and so on. But the 7K isn't a real multi-repeater controller because it has just one DTMF decoder, one DTMF encoder, one CW/tone generator, and so on. The repeater on the main port will have priority over the other when it comes to those resources, so this scheme works best when the second repeater is a minor one. The new 7xxx series is being designed specifically to handle multiple repeaters. Each repeater will have its own resouces, and the software will allow either independent or linked operation. 73, Bob Bob Schmid, WA9FBO, MemberS-COM, LLCPO Box 1546LaPorte CO 80535-1546970-416-6505 voice970-419-3222 faxwww.scomcontrollers.com I asked this to the S-Com site, but no answer yet, hope somebody give some ligth here: I have a S-Com 7K controller with Version 2.03 ( think is the latest firmware ), my question is if it can handle two repeaters separated with their own timers and ID's, can't find anything related in the manual.

[Repeater-Builder] UHF Motran base MSB / MSY
Aha! I think I've identified my dinosaur remains as some version of Motran base/repeater. That's a start. I still can't determine exactly which receiver and transmitter I have. I assume there were a few variations. Anybody got a manual for something like this that they would part with? Or possibly copy some relevant sections?

[Repeater-Builder] Re: OT: NC man charged with 'driving a cop car' due to ham antennas
The problem is selective enforcement AND too much spare time on their hands. Instead of horassing thoes who would help them in a time of need, they should be nailing drunk driver and putting then in jail. I just watched a Sherrif Deputy sitting at an intersection and about 10 cars ran the STOP signs at the four way stop. What was he doing, playing with his thumbs. I think it is also a POWER thing I worked with the local PD for ten years and nearly all of them was on a power trip. Don't get me wrong, I support law enforcement, but a lot of them need to chill out a bit. 73 --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "Frank R.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] 7K controller
The problem is that there is one timeout timer, one carrier delay (hang-in) timer, one identifier, and one you get the idea. Yes, you can connect two repeaters to it, and they will repeat, but it's really obvious that the 7K wasn't designed for the job. I'd keep it and get a second, put one 7K on each repeater, and cable the two port #2s together allowing them to link to each other at will. Been there, done that. Or get a true multiport controller.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: OT: NC man charged with 'driving a cop car' due to ham antennas
MPH units were dogs... I know I repaired and recertified them for several years. At least in FL X band (10 GHz) was not valid even before 1993. I am saying that I THINK X band was out of the picture nationwide at that time but I never saw it in writing so I cant bet my life on it. I too was in Law Enforcement till' I learned how much better the pay was in electronics and I got tired of the BS lawsuits all the time. There are a lot of good natured people out there that can go over board with what we call "wannabe stuff" and there are others that are just looking for trouble. Yes that was a MPH on the dashboard, yes the antennas, the radar and the car did make it like an unmarked car. Does this justify a tongue lashing ? Yes, trial or even a ticket no... If he is looking for trouble continue with the MPH on the dashboard, but if not put it away and continue on, if he get's hassled again then it actually is unfair BUT looking at the whole picture the K-55 on the dash did put it over the edge in my eyes 10 GHz allocation or not. I just had to put my 2 cents in sorry but I think even though amusing discussion it's way off topic for this long of a thread.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Simulcast High Band Micor
There's not a high-stab channel element per se, but Micor PURC (paging) stations used an external high-stability or ultra-high-stability oscillator for simulcast operations. These were external rack-mount units. A special channel element plugs into the exciter that has two pigtails on it - one for audio (coming from the exciter to the UHSO), and the other for modulated RF (coming from the UHSO into the exciter). I have some (both complete stations as well as spare UHSO's) if you're interested. --- Jeff > -Original Message- > From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of n6icw > Sent: Monday, July 18, 2005 2:01 PM > To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Simulcast High Band Micor > > > Is there high precision channel element for simulcasting a micor > transmitter.

[Repeater-Builder] Simulcast High Band Micor
Is there high precision channel element for simulcasting a micor transmitter. I have a heated micor 800 kxn1071a and since it is 12 mhz based trying to figure if there is away to get Bowan to cut one for high band. Yes Skipp I could just net the transmitters. :-) Chris n6icw Yahoo!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: OT: NC man charged with 'driving a cop car' due to ham antennas
I have a suburban 1997 white with 6 antennas for Ham radio rigs and a UHF radio for Med Chs. I am also the Asst. EMS Director with an ambulance service and have flashing lights. the State Police here in CO have hassled me about my suburban. To have lights you must possess an Authorized Emergency Vehicle Sticker and be certified by the State of CO. I have this Sticker and there is nothing that they can do. The State patrol that lives in our town has been caught several times uptown running me into the ground about my antennas and my lights that he can do nothing about. So. Just to make things better I Got a dog cage and put in the back of the suburban to keep my Yellow lab in when we go camping/fishing etc. I tell you what they Local State Patrolman has had a fit. the local PD and Sheriff are ok with it they are who gave me lights. and emergency equipment. I only run the lights to calls and in emergency situations the antennas are all used for Ham radio and except the one for UHF Med Radio and one for 800 Digital Scanner. All of which I can have. I did not know this problem was this widespread until reading about the NC man.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] motorola moxys
The Moxy,Maxar,and Maxar80 are all the same chassis only with minor differences from each other. The Motorola Flexar desktop repeater was made out of the transmitter side of the Maxar chassis and the receiver was the receiver side of the maxar. Each chassis was mounted in different boxes for isolation. I ran one of these on the GMRS band for nearly 20yrs before lightning took it out. Slap a controller of your choice between two of them and a decent duplexer and go to town!

[Repeater-Builder] 1994 MRT Article on SpectraTAC Mods?
In the February 1994 issue of MRT there was an article by Carl Ebinger of the Dade County Radio Shop who made some interesting claims about improving the performace of the SpectraTAC systems used by Dade Co. EMS. His article claimed that he could improve the performance of the SQM by the addition of $0.25 (1994$) in parts to each SQM. He described how there was too much voice getting into the noise detection circuitry which was causing falsing. Unfortunately, when I tried to track the details down [circuit left out of article] I found that Carl was a Silent Key and, thus out of range. Talking to several others in the shop, including Susie and Joe Harper, did not lead me to the schematic of the modification. Carl had been working with TRN6091A SQMs so I am wondering if Motorola incorporated his improvements into later revision SQMs. Before I begin badgering the Dade County Radio Shop again I thought I would ask here if any of you were familiar with the article and Carl's work. He did say that he improved performance by removing JU-6 and installing JU-5 in the secondary line drivers of the three subcomparators. This shortened the Status Tone return delay from 550 msec to 90 msec which improved weak signal noise detector falsing at the master comparator. Thanks, Bruce WA6YLV KMJ335 Yahoo!

[Repeater-Builder] Re: motorola moxys
As others have mentioned, the Moxy was the bottom of the barrel Motorola radio. They came out about thirty years ago to compete with the rice boxes that were showing up in commercial service. They may be OK for playing garage repeater or maybe even some linking, but I don't think I would allow them at any of my commercial sites. 73, Al, K9SI Yahoo!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: OT: NC man charged with 'driving a cop car' due to ham antennas
Gents, Recently (May 2005) two young ham radio operators in my town, each of whom drove retired New York State Police cruisers they had purchased at state auction were questioned and given a hard time by both the local county Sheriff and several State Police officers. Both are amateur radio operators and had numerous antennas for the ham bands. On occasion they also operated KR 10 SP 24 Ghz radar units. The Sheriff tried to tell them it was illegal for a non-police officer to have a radar unit in their car (which is not true at all). The New York State Police made an inquiry of the FCC regarding their operation of the radar units. As an ARRL Assistant Director and retired law enforcement officer who also taught radio communication in the academy, I became curious and involved as I mentored both hams helping them get their tickets. GRANTED, they are "wanna be's" and I in fact did suggest they fly under the radar (sic), but being young like we all were at one time, they flew above it a little. I knew they would most likely get stopped and questioned, however as long as they wee not stopping anyone, they were legal. On a hunch I called Riley Hollingsworth and you guessed it, the NYSP in fact did call him regarding the radar operation. I met with Riley at Dayton and we had a chat regarding the issues and after several weeks, I received an email with a copy to the Director of Communications of the New York State Police (who I know) that it is perfectly legal for a ham to run a radar unit in a motor vehicle or anywhere as long as the frequency it operates on is in the amateur band. NOW..X band is just outside the ham bands, but K band 24.150 Mhz if one checks, is a shared allocation by hams and police. The FCC confirmed that K band is not exclusive to the Police. I am aware of some X band units that in fact have been retuned into the 10 Ghz ham band by radar techs. What the real problem was here is the that two are 20 years old, they had cops toys and the cops did not like it. They got the usual treatment because they were young. The bottom line is that it is perfectly legal for a non-police officer to run a radar unit mobile AND if the 10 Ghz in not tuned for the ham bands, it is an FCC issue, NOT a POLICE issue. There is no probable cause to stop a motorist, just because there is a radar unit on the dash. Both have since sold their Crown Vics because they got tired of the unwanted attention by the Police who had nothing better to do with their time. I took it upon myself to email the Lt. in the Sheriff's Dept. who had been ordered to inspect the cars by the Sheriff and advise him of the FCC response. He never acknowledged my email. Guess I took away all of their fun. Fred WA2MMX -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Frank R.
