Re: [Repeater-Builder] Audio Limit with GE MAstr Pro

Thanks John.  Some of my users sound great on the system, then some users are distorted.  I can talk with them on other repeaters and they sound fine there, just on this one they sound bad.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Audio Limit with GE MAstr Pro

Matthew,

You shouldn't need to reduce the audio level going into the 
controller.  The RX audio level adjust pot on the 
controller should allow you to adjust that level as low as 
you need.  You might want to go through the procedure for 
setting audio levels (RX and TX) in the controller manual 
again.

Is the clipping occurring in the repeater receiver or 
transmitter?  Assuming you have a local speaker on the 
MASTR Pro receiver, do you hear the clipping there?

DTMF falsing could be caused by a number of things.  First 
make sure you set the RX audio level using the procedure in 
the controller manual.

I don't have a MASTR Pro manual handy at the moment, and 
can't remember whether deemphasis is done before or after 
the volume control.  If deemphasis is after that point, you 
need to make sure you deemphasize your audio.  The CAT 
controller may provide this option... if not, you'll need 
to do it yourself going into the controller.  There is 
information on deemphasis, including recommended circuits 
on repeater-builder.com.

If you need additional reduction of high frequency audio 
response, you might try a capacitor to ground from the high 
side of the volume control.  Start with .01 uF and 
experiment up or down from there.  More capacitance will 
roll off the highs more.  This will reduce the overall 
audio level into the controller somewhat, so be prepared to 
re-adjust your controller audio levels after you get the 
frequency response you desire.

[Repeater-Builder] Audio Limit with GE MAstr Pro

2005-07-03 Thread Mathew Quaife
With audio coming from my GE MAster Pro from the high side of the 
volume control, is there anything that can be done at that point to 
limit the amount of audio coming into the controller, as well as 
making the audio give a little more base response as opposed to a high 
tone pitch?  Still having the problem with some of the users clipping 
the repeater on the high end, as well as now some of them are hitting 
the falsing dtmf signal.  The controller is the Cat 1000B controller.

Thanks.

Mathew
