It will not allow any RX audio to pass, this is the normal. The question is, is the recevier receving? Have you hooked a speaker to the two pins on the upper right of the large board? Did you hear anything there? The pot there is for the Spkr volume. The 'PL Disable' switch does not disable the PL on the REPEAT, so if you do not have the correct PL the TX will not come up, even with the 'PL Disable' switch ON. Yahoo!

How do I know if I have keyed channel elements and what are they? Thanks...Andy KC8EVM If you have the micor putting out proper power then you don't have the problem. The Micor, in stock multichannel base station configuration, grounds the low side of the appropriate channel element to select it. Many mods tell you to ground the frequency one element, which has the transmit channel element running full time, which in a simplex base station blocks the receiver (RF-wise), or in a repeater results in a low-level signal full time. Some people don't like that, especially those with high-altitude sites where the low level signal can travel a decent distance. It's really annoying when you are at the repeater site doing servicing and your HT never shuts up. So a common solution was to key the element on and off with a switching transistor added to the backplane (see the Joel Huntley WA1ZYX mod) or to use the antenna relay transistor on the station card (Scott's note). Some folks say that letting the element run full time results in a more stable signal. I say that if you have a good quality crystal in a good channel element powered by a clean 9.6v regulator that you already have a stable signal. If not, then something isn't doing it's job!

[Repeater-Builder] Maxon pm150
Following on previous posting I did get a chance to test my site with a spectrum Analyzer and on transmitt my two maxons are giving off a lot of harmonics which I feel is causing desense on my repeaters .One repeater is running a 6LD450S and the other is a 6mc450s Is it better to try a 6 inch bandpass cavity inline between the TX pa and the duplexers or change the duplexers to band pass/band reject Thank You, Ian Wells, Kerinvale Comaudio, www.kerinvalecomaudio.com.au Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Weird Kerchuking Problem
I had a similar problem on my 900 MHz repeater. The site is about 1/4 mile from a much busier site that has a lot of paging, cellphone, and other stuff on it. All it takes is two systems to be off frequency by a hundred Hz or so, and when they cause intermod, the receiver sees that frequency difference as PL, and tickles the squelch. The repeater was being keyed up dozens of times per day. My solution was to use DPL on the repeater input. The repeater is now completely quiet unless it's being used or sending out its beacon every 30 minutes. Not much you can do if you need to maintain a PL tone. Intermod will happen. The frequency tolerance for commercial equipment is going to be a few hundred Hz, so differences in the PL tone range are highly possible. Good luck with your new technical committee duties.

Decibel was purchased by Andrew, now under their "Base station Antenna" business: http://www.andrew.com/products/antennas/bsa/ Versus hacking up a new antenna to get it tuned, my personal suggestion to look at the Telewave exposed dipoles. http://www.telewave.com/pricelist/antdipole1.html Very broadbanded - work incredibly well on our bands. I use them on 4 different ones of the NI4CE tall profile sites.On our www.ni4ce.org page you'll see a photo of a 4 bay VHF (ANT150D6-9) and 8 bay UHF (ANT450D7-12) Telewave pair 1035ft up a broadcast tower. These antennas replaced 5 year old DB models that had weathered a few too many tropical events. So far the groups' been very pleased with the results of the antennas.

B1rd is pronounced B one R D! The B1rd is still one of the most important tools today. I don't think Telewave was even around back then (40+ years ago). Will Yahoo!
