Re: [Repeater-Builder] GM 300 Question
We use the BCD code method on the GM300 toggling four of the programmable pins on the accy jack. Using the RC-210's Aux ports, we program 15 macros to divide up the logic and have voice telemetry confirming the channel on the remote base.

Of the various methods, the one where you tell the radio which channel to go to is far more reliable. The others depend on you knowing where the radio is before you tell it to change because there is NO feedback of any kind. If you want something that's very user-friendly and may even provide feedback in some way, you're better off with an Icom, Kenwood, or Yaesu radio. The Motorola link radios you're using just don't have what you want. Bob M. On the GM300 we are using we programed it so we can change channels remotely thru the accessory jack using pins 6,8 and 9 if I remember right. We pulled them low, one at a time and the channel changed accordingly. It worked fine. We just need to hear some kind of a confirmation over the repeater to confirm the channel change. Rod What kind of repeater controller are you using? Any decent controller will have a way to indicate a completed function. On our system we have macros that: a) turn the 2m remote base off b) select channel N where N is 1 through 8. Each channel has a preselected CTCSS tone. c) select CTCSS encode tone NN where NN is 01-32 (tone 00 is carrier squelch) (this overrides the preselected tone) d) enable the 2m transmitter for the current channel. Each of the above functions is several commands in the controller. Each is triggered by sending a DTMF string that triggers a macro. One of the commands in each macro sends a beep or speech message appropriate to the command (for example, selecting tone 00 says none, tone 13 says one hundred. Note that these responses all come from the controller, not from the remote base radio. There are several commands that turns the 2m transmitter off, including changing the channel, changing the encode tone, changing any of the point-to-point link configurations, or any of the patch functions. These are all controlled by macros. If you let us know what controller you are using we can give you some pointers. Mike WA6ILQ
Re: [Repeater-Builder] Notch duplexer dumb question
I actually have seen those mobile duplexors labeled both ways, but commonly the labeling refers to what is connected. Low would be your 462 freq pass and would be tuned to reject 467. Most of those UHF mobile notch duplexors fairly broad banded and probably will not matter as long as YOU know how they are tuned.

The ports are labeled HI and LO now for the dumb question, do those labelings refer to the NOTCH frequency or the pass frequency? Unfortunately, it is not labeled with the current tuning, and I don't have easy access to anything to sweep it with George, KA3HSW / WQGJ413

[Repeater-Builder] Celwave Preselector Tuning
I have one of the small 941-PB4-2-3 Celwave Band Pass Preselectors ( UHF ). There are 7 stubs, 4 are on the pass cans, 3 in-between the 4 resonators. Adjusting any of the 3 stubs (between each of the 4 resonators) has little effect on the skirt. I might assume that these 3 might be related to bandwidth spread, but I am not seeing any adjacent attenuation, notch or change. Can anyone share light on tuning these and what the intended function of the 3 in-between stubs are. Here is the thing, for reference: http://www.rfsworld.com/RFSglobal/datasheet.asp?PN=941%2DPB4%2D2%2D3FAM=Filters Danny KD4RAA

Motorola has been known to spec and supply repeater gear in odd bands, but since I'm not in their loop anymore I can't tell you what they currently offer overseas at this time. On more than one occassion, I've serviced some really wild repeaters on large cruise ships from Europe and Asia. Other parts of the world have and use ham and commercial bands we don't even know about and Motorhead makes or made repeaters for these ranges. I've got the software for and had a source for a Motorola repeater on 220 MHz range factory built repeater. Serviced and sent it back to Asia a few years ago. Don't know if EF Johnson has resurfaced to offer after the factory move.
