Re: [inbox] Re: [Repeater-Builder] Sinclair VHF Duplexer
OK, If I read your post correctly you want to increase the spacing to more than 5 MHz for use with a VHF-Hi Business system. Since this is a mobile low power notch only duplexer it will depend on what spacing you are trying to achieve. If close to 5 MHz, like 5.5 to 6 MHz, I would try and see what can be done. If more than 6 MHz you probably want to forget it and get another candidate. Also you don't give a lot of info about conditions where it will be used so even if it would tune up properly the construction may not be appropriate for your intended use.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Kenwood TKR-820
Wow... sounds like a fun project if one had all the time to get around having the kpt-50. There are a number of people wanting to get around the kpt-50 requirement with a basic rib type programmer. But I've always removed the eeprom and used the the kpt-50 along with the kpg-21d software to keep from using the kpt-50 key-pad again. I believe the sub tone/dcs information is kept in the eeprom. If you're local to me near Sacramento, I'll program your repeater to the ham bands for free. If you really needed to get the eprom done, I'd even help you by mail. I also keep the kpt-50 in stock (I'm an Authorized Kenwood Dealer). Email me direct if you want more information. I've run the tkr-720 and tkr-820 in both carrier squelch, with a tone panel (external) and with a trunking controller. The factory repeater board doesn't generate true reverse burst. Like other mfgrs did... the tone is often shut off before the transmitter drops and the detector tries to close the audio of before the tx drops. Aside from some of my personal connection notes, one of the better external controller mods was posted by Mike a short time back. You simply unplug the the repeater board and run a number of small plug jumpers as directed in the information. Yes, if you make up a kpt-50 work around, it will be quite popular.

I could see the phase shift in the lissajous (sp?) on the service monitor...the only problem I ever ran into was that the time delay they used was a bit short for some radios. Same problem with the mobiles of that vintage (early 90's). Yes, they make GREAT ham repeaters, with only the need to add a simple ID'er. All of the external controller mods I did were done at the accessory jack on the back. And they were always done in such a way that you could just unplug the cable from the back, hit the button on the front, and run local. Worst case (with tone panels), I would have to open the top and plug the CTCSS EEPROM back in.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Kenwood TKR-820
I have not gotten the internal controller to activate the repeater, I am suspecting that it is waiting for a DQT code (Digital PL) to activate. I tweaked the VCO's for 3 volts not knowing any better, I will readjust them tonight. I built a simple interface for the serial EEPROM out of a few resistors and zener diodes. At the moment it is just hard wired to some vias I saw coming from the programming plug. I will rebuild my interface tonight to have a 8 pin socket and +5 volt regulator so the chips can be programed out side the rig and see whats in the other chip. Looking at the schematic, I have no idea how they are getting data over to the EEPROM on the signalling board, there apears to be no connections to the programming plug. Also there is an awful lot of fire power on that board just for the CTCSS encode and decode, you would think they would have put a CW IDer in there. Looks like there is room enough left over on the tray for a smaller controller such as the NHRC-Micro and TCX-12.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Kenwood TKR-820
Hi Jim, There was a debate about the reverse being a true Motorola type Reverse-Burst. It only seemed to matter if you were running the true reverse burst decoder with the reed stall Motorola parameters values. Never mattered to me much... the goal was to reduce or elminate the users tx un-key static crash. I got tired of fighting different reverse phase formal formats for so many different radios receivers. Extending out the rptr tx hang time without a sub tone has been a poor mans way to deal with no reverse burst function. I put in one of the original comm spec RB-1 modules (diagram avail on the RB web site) and some radio decoders liked it... some didn't. So I added the extended no sub tone time and everyone is for the most part happy. I use the molex jack on the back for external controllers and tone panels... the hook-up is different for each. As a simple ID'er, I've used the Autocode module many times. It's cheap and an easy board to add... no other parts are required other than the molex plug pins. The first time you do any tkr repeater connection... you quickly learn to scratch your head in wonder. cheers, skipp Jim B.

DCFluX wrote: I have not gotten the internal controller to activate the repeater, I am suspecting that it is waiting for a DQT code (Digital PL) to activate. If you pull the tone chip, it should repeat CSQ. Make sure the rpt button on the front is pushed in! I tweaked the VCO's for 3 volts not knowing any better, I will readjust them tonight. I built a simple interface for the serial EEPROM out of a few resistors and zener diodes. At the moment it is just hard wired to some vias I saw coming from the programming plug. I will rebuild my interface tonight to have a 8 pin socket and +5 volt regulator so the chips can be programed out side the rig and see whats in the other chip. Looking at the schematic, I have no idea how they are getting data over to the EEPROM on the signalling board, there apears to be no connections to the programming plug. You're right-there isn't. The tone chip is programmed by removing it and plugging it into the programmer, either the KPT-20 or -50. And that's the only info it has is the 8 encode/decode tones/codes. Also there is an awful lot of fire power on that board just for the CTCSS encode and decode, you would think they would have put a CW IDer in there. You forget-this is pre-1990 vintage equipment. It only looks like there is a lot of hp! It is the whole controller though. It does repeat audio gating, hang time, TOT, as well as encode/decode. Oh yeah, the repeat squelch control is on that board too. The front panel sq control has no effect on repeat. I guess there wasn't much of a call for an internal ID at the time. I can't think of any other commercially-made desktop repeater that had an ID'er built-in from that vintage, either. To get that, you had to go to an MSF-5000 or MastrIIe/MastrIII size box. In fact, most of the desktop repeaters of that vintage were crystal controlled! Looks like there is room enough left over on the tray for a smaller controller such as the NHRC-Micro and TCX-12. Yup, most likely. I know putting something like an ID-8 in was a snap. Almost enought room for 2 of 'em, not that there's a reason to have two...

Matt, if you are editing the EEproms by hand, here's a link to Mijo S51KQ's TK/R-720 web page.. I helped him with creating the EEprom (93C46) images.. See: http://lea.hamradio.si/~s51kq/temp/_projects_/TKR720_modification/ On the TKR/B radios, the file saved by KPG21D contains the data for the Freq. and CTCSS EEprom..

I realize binary file editing to not for everyone, but it's not as hard as everyone makes it out to be either.. I also want to create a 'EZ-Prog' type exe that will create the various file images, (TKb/r freq.

No one seems to be forth coming with a schematic of the KPT-50 so I have a cable ghettoed to the back of this laptop going to the serial eeprom on the front board. So far I have been able to program the dual synthisizers to the test frequency of 446.3TX and 441.3RX, simple formula, Target frequency in Khz (446300) minus 21400 divided by 12.5 then converted to hexidecimal for both synthisizers. This required a little tweaking of the VCOs to do so, and so far it seems to be working, but I don't have any serious test equipment hooked up to it at the moment. But I cannot get the unit to go into repeat mode, so I am trying to figure out if I need to program the thing to go with carrier squelch or if it is looking for CTCSS or what. Does anyone have any documentation on this unit at all? Right now I am going by a schematic for the VHF version of the repeater and it isn't really answering too many questions. I am a little curious as to what the serial EEPROM on the Signal Control Board does. It looks like a rudimentry controller and perhaps houses the PL tone decoder, oh, and the COR lamp on it will not light when the RX is unsquelched. --Matt Yahoo!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Kenwood TKR-820
Some of the low end talkies do not respond to reverse burst. No tone on tail works for most everyone, but not nearly as 'clean' as reverse burst - also there are several different amounts of phase shift with reverse burst. Ssb You DO know the TKR-820 generates reverse burst?

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Kenwood TKR-820
Pete, That is some damn fine information there. I only wish I had it last night. About the only thing that is different in the 820 is the divde radio is .0125 instead of .005Currently I am using a program called pony prog whichthe serialinterface I am usingissimilar to the one shown on this website, I will redothe schematic with one that is guarenteed towork though and doesn't need any fancy regulators. AlsoI am using some Hex editor I found on google, It is like the first link when you type in hex editor. It may be possible to add the missing channel controls and jumper the control chip from repeater to base mode so thenthe repeater could QSY, not much say 100kHz to allow the duplexer to functionbut more importantly change PL tones remotely to allow Carrier access or different CTCSS tones. I think the TKR-850 series does this already but that may be a pretty sweet mod for the x20 series.
