Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Icom IC-FR4000-3
I had that problem once on a FR-3000. it had to do with the {Hang On} under Common Setting:Common. the box had to be checked (on) for: C. Tone during a Hang ON.

If you need a copy of the service manual let me know. It will take me a day or two to find it.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Icom IC-FR4000-3
Barry, The systems I install are for public safety, there dispatchers take care of ID'ing there systems. I have been going with a 2 sec. hang time, it's a little more then I like running. When they have 100 + watt amps in line, but it seems to keep the system nice and smooth. Ryan barrypal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Ryan, how do you run your system ID. It looks likes it will id every time the repeater logs in and or out. That is every time it is keyed up and unkeyed it will id. You can set up intervals up to 5000 seconds but that's 24/7 and has nothing to do with repeater activity. I can't seem to find a way to make it more friendly and id during log on and then be quiet for a time period before going through another id cycle regardless of the repeater logging in or out... My hang on time is 1 second. I could set up a longer hang on time which would clean the id up a bit but I run Echolink Voip and we need a short hang on for that to work properly Barry > > I had that problem once on a FR-3000. it had to do with the {Hang On} under Common Setting:Common. the box had to be checked (on) for: C.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Duplexers

I have a DB products 2 meter duplexer on an amateur repeater. Measuring with a Bird wattmeter between the duplexer and antenna I read 50W forward and a couple watts reverse. That is ok. But when I check between the transmitter and the TX port on the duplexer I get a about 60 W forward and 25W reverse power. Is there a rule fo thumb for a known good SWR value thru a duplexer? Should a good duplexer introduce any significant SWR? Thanks Bernie Parker K5BP Yahoo! Groups Links
