Re: [Repeater-Builder] First repeater and need some info
Sounds like you need to repair/replace the station control or the repeater control board. You might need to look at the line driver also. I dont have a manual in front of me so I am going from memory. You need the service manual and some test equipment. Chris N9LLO

[Repeater-Builder] TKR-720/820
Can anyone tell me a source for parts for the TKR-720/820 repeater. Is Kenwood the only source? I have a Signaling Unit that crapped out. Somebody on the board is dragging down the 5V regulated and it's not easy for this old guy to see that tiny stuff, let alone solder it. de WD7F John in Tucson Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: GE EXEC II UHF Exciter Help Needed
Just to say thanks to all who helped in getting this pup setup, the first one is done and working well. All is left is getting the xtals, cw id'er and a tone board for the receiver and it's ready to go on the air. The looks are crude, but the performance is awesome. Thanks again.

[Repeater-Builder] GE Exec Time Out Timer issue needs attention
Is there a way to bypass the time out timer in the GE or at least change it to more than one minute, more like 4 minutes. Also, when the time out timer kicks in, the radio has to be shut off in order to get it to reset. Is there a fix to bypass this as well. Thanks. Mathew

RE: [Repeater-Builder] GE Exec Time Out Timer issue needs attention
I think you could just unplug it? It plugs into the system board I believe. Near the center of the board there is a row of 6 pins it just plugs onto. It may even have a variable resistor to set the time (I cant remember for sure). I have seen some but never used one on my stuff. I imagine you could increace capacitor or resistor sizes on the timer board til you get it long enough to suit you. tom [Original Message] From: n9lv [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Date: 11/26/2006 3:34:32 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] GE Exec Time Out Timer issue needs attention Is there a way to bypass the time out timer in the GE or at least change it to more than one minute, more like 4 minutes.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] TKR-720/820
I suffer with the inability to walk away from an electronics malfunction...can't sleep, can't think of anything else. Turns out that the 22 uFD electrolytic where the 12.8 V comes into the signaling unit had failed. I took it out and the thing worked for a few seconds. I measured the resistance of the in-series 10 ohm surface mount resistor preceeding the cap and it was reading 750 ohms. I jumped it with a 10 ohm resistor and everything started working. I suppose the heat from the soldering iron may have screwed up that resistor, but it seems unlikely. Danged if I know! Ain't electronics fun? Anyway, I STILL wonder if it's possible to find circuit boards for the TKR720/820. de WD7F John in Tucson - Original Message - From: WD7F - John in Tucson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, November 26, 2006 12:46 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] TKR-720/820 Can anyone tell me a source for parts for the TKR-720/820 repeater.

[Repeater-Builder] Wanted: 1 5/8 N-type air hardline connector
Recently our repeater site was burglarized and the connector along with several feet of the 1 5/8 air hardline was stolen. (for the copper) There were several other pieces of hardline also stolen. I'm willing to purchase a 1 5/8 N-type connector for air hardline. I would appreciate hearing if anyone has a connector or a source for one. Thanks Darryl - N4OME
Re: [Repeater-Builder] TKR-720/820
Thank you..$178.14 or $188.27 for the signaling unit. Better than buying another repeater.
