Re: [Repeater-Builder] Converting a MASTR Desk Mate
LL201 = late radio Mastr-Pro / early cabinet ... The transmitter may easily go to 51.84 or it may not. In the past my fix was to remove one turn from the final grid tank coil and it will tune in range. Just an opinion here, Neil - WA6KLA Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Converting a MASTR Desk Mate
Yes, this will tune into the ham band without serious mods - a word of caution before you continue running the ep38, check the integrity of the bleeder resistors that are on each high voltage cap - if any doubt replace them all before someone gets hurt. And when you tune the exciter you can pull the driver tube and continue working for 10-15 second intervals without it, when it sees the swr it causes a lot of heating and can fail quickly, once you get the exciter making power on the test set/voltmeter drop the tube back in and tune the final and away you go, they make 100 watts all day and nite low band just keep the fan running. And if you go split site with another ep38 uhf the rx/tx trays switch easily or look for an ep39 which is the remote rx tray holder and figure another way to send back with a uhf walky on low power. -- 73...Clark Beckman N8PZD Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Converting a MASTR Desk Mate
This is the "Mastr Pro", right? If so, you MAY need a minor mod to be done in the driver stage of simply replacing a resister with one of slightly lower value. Otherwise, it will run fine on 6 meters assuming it is the 42-50 MHz range.

[Repeater-Builder] Converting a MASTR Desk Mate
Anyone out there in repeater land, set up a low band(25-50Mc) Mastr Progress line DESK MATE on 6 meter ham ??? Need advise and direction. It is presently on 48.48 and it works. Puts out close to 100W. Will it stretch to 51.84 ?? Paul PS. Received a "KEY" today. It does take the LL201 K.Paul Boggs [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mountain Emergency Communications Yahoo!
