Re: [Repeater-Builder] maggiore's service
I have had great service from Maggiore with fast turn arounds. Having bought some older used Maggiore products off ebay, they came back from repair and have been working great for the last 2 years. The repair prices were very reasonable. Mike K.

I find that very hard to believe.Paul backs up his product. No matter who bought it for whom,..If it was built by his company he will back up his product.. NealSteve Grantham wrote: Caveat Emptor. If you buy Maggiore, the purchaser is the perpetual owner as far as they are concerned. It is impossible to get any real service assistance from them unless your name is associated with the serial number. Our club has one that was purchased on behalf of the club, in an individual's name, and we cannot get any satisfaction period. I cannot even get them to reply to emails. As a matter of fact, the fellow's email address went bad.

Not only did they do the work fast, it was all first rate soldering and hardware. Service seems to be pretty good for Hi-Pro stuff. cheers, skippp Joe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: If you have a technical staff available to do your repairs, a repeater such as the Hi-Pro may be suitable. (Although I would personally recommend 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. 73, Joe, k1ike Yahoo!

[Repeater-Builder] WTD: Icom RP-1220 Service Manual
Hello, I am looking for a copy of the ICOM RP-1220 service manual. If someone can help me out it would be appreciated. I have an intermittent power output. It only keys up at 10 watts occasionally and most the time power output is at 1.5 watts. Can't seem to isolate the problem to a poor connection. Sincerely, Mike N6KYD Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Question on 220 GE master pro
I have a UHF Mastr Pro receiver on a repeater that had the same problem. The audio off the terminal strip is very bassy. I solved the problem by taking the audio from the volume pot.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] T1504 cavity
Ken, On the High Pass/Low Reject side I had to move the coupling loops of both cans to the 2nd position (outer most hole) on a 445.580- pair in order to get maximum reject of 440.580. It's worth a try and see how your notch looks there.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] a little help
I have used the Hustler G7-220 for many years in a high wind area and it has held up very well. No snap crackle or pop through the repeater during wind. There is no ice or snow here in So. Cal. so others may want to comment on their experiences with this antenna in harsh environments. The Cuscraft 220 four pole is another good antenna. I don't know if they are still being manufactured. http://www.wb0w.com/hustler/g7220.htm http://www.wiscointl.com/hustler/amateur/g7220.htm http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/1752 Mike N6KYD www.docsradioden.com - Original Message - From: "Donnie Q" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Saturday, March 27, 2004 7:10 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] a little help > I am putting a 220 machine on the air in Michigan, all ready have > the pair. but my question is does anyone have any ideas of a good > antenna, or a web site were I can search. if so email me please. > > W8RIF > > > > > > > > Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] duplexers
