Thanks, Jed --- Hi Jed; I tried to send you an email on this offlist... not sure whether you received it. I am interested in discussing your Hamtronics 220 repeater. Please contact me offlist if the equipment is still available. Thanks, Ramesh, VA3UV Ramesh (at) va3uv . com

[VE3RSD: Hi, Yes, we have lost the bottom end of the band 220 - 222MHz. So far, we still have the remaining 3MHz (222 - 225). I sure hope that we will not lose that.. as I have just recently invested some cash into a new Alinco DR-235 and the DJ-296!!! Lets hope that I can generate enough interest in the 222 - 225 portion to make it a sustainable HAM band. Tnx es vy 73 de Ramesh. IRLP Nodes 2304 (224.720MHz) / Node 2651 (147.540MHz) Yahoo!

[Repeater-Builder] Re: FS: GE MASTR2 VHF 100w base/repeater
Hi Kevin: I am new to the world of repeaters and may be in the market for a used 2m repeater. Could you please let me know what you are asking for the repeater, whether it comes with a duplexer, and how easy is it to change the operating frequencies. If you wish to contact me off-list with pricing, etc., my email addr is va3uv(at)rac.ca 73 de Ramesh. --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, Kevin Custer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Wow Kevin, sounds like you got a [EMAIL PROTECTED] repeater with 330 watts on 2meters. Question for you: How many watts ERP is your repeater putting out? What type of antenna will handle 330 watts? The repeater is actually outputting (and is coordinated for) 250 watts into the duplexer. Subtracting the duplexer insertion loss of 1.5 dB (or 29 %), I get about 175 watts to the bottom of the feeder which I lose an additional 1/2 a dB or so, so I really get about 158 watts to the stick (Sinclair SRL-229) which has a rated gain of 6.1 dBd, so my ERP is about 650 watts. The antenna will handle 300 watts, so I'd need to run over 400 watts for that to be a concern. I have run this station for short periods of time at the 330 watt level for testing. There isn't much difference in ERP between the 250 and 330 watt level, so I choose to save on the electric bill and keep the coordinator happy and run it at the 1/4 kilowatt level. Kevin Yahoo!
