If you don't program it, I believe it defaults to three minutes I just checked my documentation and it says that Yes, No, or a single digit time from 1 to 7 minutes may be entered.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: GE Phoenix Radios as Links
Some additional thoughts... On second thought, I don't think it would be a good idea to disable the timer, rather set it for 6 or 7 minutes to protect the radio. I don't know of a hardware timer, but there may well be one; I didn't see it mentioned in the service manual, but I could have missed it. The service manual says the timer defaults to one minute. By the way, when you say you didn't program the CCT, did you leave the field blank, or did you put No in it? I use one for packet radio, and all the signals I need are on the rear connectors.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: GE Phoenix Radios as Links
You can get the recommended crimper for them that'll set you back in excess of $80. Or, you can get an inexpensive crimper that will get you by, for around $15 or $20. I'm not sure where you can get them, try an electronics store or a tool outlet. Radio Shack sold them at one time, but I'm not sure if they carry them now. Their new sales mantra is: We Used To Carry That. Or, if all else fails, you can crimp 'em with a pair of needle nose pliers. Bend one ear over the wire, then the other, making sure the crimp is small enough so that the pin will fit in the connector housing. Then you'll need to solder the wire to the pin, as it won't be reliable otherwise.

I have not been able to find it. I would also like to know how you wire up the Phoenix. I am using the pins on the back. Any thoughts?
