Re: [Repeater-Builder] Fiplex duplexers

2005-05-17 Thread David Robichaux
I've been using a four can set on 440 MHz running 100 watts and they
are superb. Came tuned to the frequency and with the hard line
interconnects from the factory.

Hi Jed,

 A friend of mine has been using their mobile
duplexers on his 70cm repeater since about February.
The cost was low about $195 and they came tuned to his
frequencies. He is running about 50 watts into his,
which is what they are rated for and he hasn't
experienced any problems.

 Hey guys,
 Any of you used fiplex duplexers?
 I'm putting together some specs for a friend of mine
 for a 220 machine.
 He's only gonna run about 35 watts or so.
 93 DB isolation sound like enough?
 These things have about 1.1 DB insertion loss.
 He just wants another alternative instead of
 spending 1400 bucks for
 TXRX.
 Thoughts?
 Thanks,
 Jed

I use one here David, the Yaesu FTH-2070. Built like a
tank, but not small compared to todays smaller rigs.

There *were* two versions available. The early ones went
from 150-174 and 450-470, and the units like mine went from
136-174 and 420-470.

They had 32 channels which were not limited to so many
VHF and UHF, so you could have 20 UHF and 10 VHF if you
like.

I think Ebay will be the only place you will find one.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: DB224

2005-01-26 Thread David Robichaux

Good that you taped our conversations. A federal offense, you know,
for not informing me that you were doing so. Play the tapes for the
list so that they can hear you in person, for three weeks, repeatedly
confirm that pin 24 was COR and that AUX Output 5 should be set to
COR and Active High. 

On last Friday, you directed me to set AUX Out 5 to TXS and Active
High. That didn't work either. 

On the cheat sheet you finally faxed to me on Monday, (after I
threatened to send the repeater back to you and not pay you for it),
you finally identified pin 25 as COR; pin 24 as TOR. On the program
settings you were just as wrong as you were on the pin 24 COR. You
indicated on your cheat sheet that the proper program settings for
Operating Mode was No. When I informed you that no such selection
was available on the software you sent with the repeater, you said
that it was on your software and to just set it to Simplex. Wrong
again. Simplex didn't work. 

Duplex, the only other choice does work quite nicely, thank you. 

You also finally indicated, on your now famous, cheat sheet that in
the program AUX Out 5 needed to be set to TOR and Active High and
that it was AUX Out 6 that needed to be set COR and Active High. That
was the first time you mentioned AUX Out 6. What you failed to
indicate is that under the AUX tab of the Function Port Settings
there is no AUX In/Out unless you designate AUX 6 In/Out as Output on
the preceding tab labeled AUX Select. (Comes as Input as default.

So after all the driving back and forth to the repeater site for
three weeks, (sometimes twice a day), and the countless calls to you
and to Computer Automation Control, it finally works the way it
should have the first time if you knew what you were doing and would
be more interested in listening carefully to a question, thinking
about the right answer and then giving the right answer the first
time. 

Instead, because I didn't buy the controller from us, I got what
you read above.

Play the tapes for all concerned. They will get a kick out of how a
graduate EE, PE, GROL, Esq., ESPN can guess so wrong, so many times 
even with all of his training and claims to have commissioned over
2,500 repeaters while I contemplate whether what legal action would
be appropriate.

By the way. Where is the circulator that I paid $253.50 + shipping
for and was to be shipped 1/12/05? (Kathy Cook's letter, dated 1/7/05)

Lets get the whole story out.
You your self told me you bought the controller
not from us! You said you got all the program  info
from them! You told me you got no help or support
from them. I called you to ask how you made out.
You told me that the repeater we sold you worked  100%
But you could not get it to work with your  controller.
I faxed you over my cheat sheet and I even told  you
to send it here and I would hook it up for you at no  charge.
If you do not think any of this is true a reminder that 
all of our phones are taped. So let us tell the  whole
truth not a half truth or I can send out a wave  file.
I and the company all ways try to help when we  can.
In your case I should have told you if it is not in the 
repeater as ordered I can't help. Then I would  not
get my finger bit off for trying to help with a  product
we did not sell. Like I said you your self said the repeater  worked
fine. 
The wait was that they gave you the wrong program info for hooking 
there 
controller up to our repeater.
Enough said. I would be darn careful before you put  out
any more half truth on a public list. For you could easy be  made a
fool. 
Remember our phones have you on them.
As for your wrong pin also a half truth as that came from the 
controller 
folks as did the cable. It was my cheat sheet that was right. I will
 take this 
off the list and write you direct.

WOW!
Sounds like Dave got his hand caught in the
cookie jar.
For those few on the list who do not know Dean.
You mite have tried to remember where you herd the name. He worked
for Motorola's design team for many years. He is a good church going
person and one real nice guy. He really knows his stuff. He is not a
Ham sad to say but is in to GMRS. As for helping. He has helped me
more then once. Last week end in the middle of the big snow storm he
took a ride with me up to South MT. PA. I had called him to ask about
solar cells just to pick his brain. He told me to pick him up and he
would love to take a ride. Well 3 hours latter we where up at the
tower site. The solar controller had taken a dump. We (mostly he)
fixed it and it is working just fine. He would not take any pay or
even let me buy him dinner. He just likes to help. At work he is the
same way.
He will help any one working or not. He just loves radio. One thing
I have found is that if he tells you something you can go to the bank
with it.
Because it is 100% write or he will find the answer and get back to
you. 
So as for Dave's blurb. NO WAY BUDDY!
I am real sure that many on this list have many of there own Dean
helped them out stories.
I called over to there office but Dean had 
left early for the day. Old saying its not nice to bit the guys hand
who helps you there are not many
left. Plus you should not put things like that on a list you should
just be a man and call that person. 
Very best of 73,

[Repeater-Builder] RE: Account overdue. Not a good person.

2005-01-26 Thread David Robichaux

As usual, you're wrong again.  I will send each of your emails to
the list. I asked for you to ship the repeater overnight. Kathy Cook
quoted me a price differential of $ 115.65. I paid with my credit
card the amount requested. Three days later she called and said that
UPS was now charging her more than she quoted for the overnight
shipment. I asked her to send me a copy of the invoice and I would
submit it to the County to see if they would pay it. I have now
changed my mind. I will not submit it to the County since you have
now told me that I'm on the no service list. That's customer
service at its best. You deal with UPS on the issue and please, don't
call and threaten me again.

Dave,
After reading your hurtful remark on repeater  builders
I told my boss. Guess what you are on the no service  list.
You owe Cook Towers for a back invoice you have not  paid
and they have called you on. It is over 16 days not paid. Bet  you
won't tell 
that to folks
on repeater builder. Your post I find very hurtful after I  went
out of my way to help you! Even late passed 17:00 on one  night
to help. I only get paid till 17:00 eastern as Cook closes at  17:00
eastern.  As for your wrong pin that came from CAT not  me. Once
again your on tape telling me that from CAT. Also it was not  three
weeks as 
you stated. Your repeater is just that old.
I also have you saying that the Kenwood TKR-850 is working  very
well and how 
much you like the auto. Once again we do not support any thing  we
do not 
sell and hooking someone else's controller to a repeater is not of
our  concern 
it is yours and yours alone.
We just helped you at no charge because you needed  help.
Well if the Kenwood TKR-850 has any problems for the next 2  years
call us 
and we will 100% support it. Any thing you did not buy from us I 
wish you well 
but I (we) will NOT help you on any thing you did not buy from 
here.

I guess you are trying to air your half truths and this is not the

Why don't you call them and not air it on this list? Like I said you

Take it up off the list. I am sure the tape they have will not make

 all of our phones are taped. So let us tell the  whole
 truth not a half truth or I can send out a wave  file.
 I and the company all ways try to help when we  can.
 In your case I should have told you if it is not in the
 repeater as ordered I can't help. Then I would  not
 get my finger bit off for trying to help with a  product
 we did not sell. Like I said you your self said the repeater 
worked
 fine.
 The wait was that they gave you the wrong program info for
hooking
 there
 controller up to our repeater.
 Enough said. I would be darn careful before you put  out
 any more half truth on a public list. For you could easy be  made

I have called today and talked to you today when you answered the
phone. Your response when I identified myself was a customer
reassuring, You're the last person I want to talk to today. I asked
for Mr. Cook, as I was returning his call to me. I told him I was not
paying for his wife's error on shipping cost and he hung up on me.
Great customer service, I must say.
Thanks again Dean.
Dave, K5EYP

It's lieu not lew, Russ. The payment terms on the repeater sold to
the county is 30 days from invoice. It will be paid by the county as
agreed. They will not, however, pay for Cook Tower's mistake on the
freight charge.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Question for the group... and a thankyou.

2004-12-22 Thread David Robichaux

There is a program called OmniPage Pro that allows you to
reconstitute a .pdf file into a Word document using Optical Character
Recoginition and it segments the pages into text boxes for text and
into graphic boxes for pictures and diagrams. I use it all the tike
to extract passages from .pdf documents and paste them, with
attribution, to other documents. Street price is about $180, Well
worth the cost, if you're going to be doing a lot of .pdf to other
documents.
Here is a link to their website you may find useful.
Thanks and Happy Holidays

Thanks for the quick reply Ken.
PDFs can be graphic, or cut and paste.
I found that out with the 1300 PDFs in the LBI-library. Some I was

I need cut and paste.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] maggiore's service

Thanks for the good advice. I'll cnsider all options when the time
comes.

Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] maggiore's service
Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2004 06:22:01 -0700 (PDT)


I have a UHF Maggiore that has played well for years
on a very high site, but I think that I have been
lucky in regards to it's performance.  I don't see
much interstage shielding and wonder what would happen
if I was at an RF crowded site.  There's not much
happening, RF wise, at the site that I am presently on
so it has performed well for me.

My main concern mentioned in my last email was
maintenance issues.  I do my own repairs, so that is
not an issue for me.  If I had a failure and did not
do repairs, I would be limited to only one repair
location (Maggiore factory).  Most 2-way shops would
probably not want to work on the Maggiore, or would
want to charge time  parts.  This can get very
expensive and time consuming, causing the repair price
to go up and downtime to be very long.  Sticking to
Kenwood, Yaesu, Motorola, or another common 2-way
product would give you more choices for repair and
faster turn-around time.

 all first rate soldering and hardware. 
 
 Service seems to be pretty good for Hi-Pro stuff.

  If you have a technical staff available to do your

 one).
   If you are planning on sending the repeater back
 to
  the manufacturer for any future repairs, Kenwood,
  Motorola, Icom, or some other similar brand would
 be
  more suitable and easier to get repaired.
