I am using a full blown GE Mastr II repeater station with an IDA
control board (I suppose this is a factory installation). It has a
speaker on the front, with a volume control and a few selector
switches, and jumpers on the board which select time out, hang time,
etc. I have a CW identifier interfaced as well.
I am not using any additional controller with this station and am
having a strange problem. Quite often, the repeater seems to drop
users. It's not a time-out timer problem. Users will be talking.
One will un-key, and the next one will pick it up, but the repeater
will NOT repeat! When he finally unkeys, the next user will pick it
up and it will work just fine. It's not one user in particular.
There is no time frame associated with it. It's like the unit has
selective COS. It drops whoever it wants to.
Is there anything that you can think of that would make this happen?
I have changed hang times all over the place, even took the time out
timer to 10 minute mode. In the manual there is a master timer but
I don't think this is a timing issue. If I can't get this
straightened out, I'll probably wind up having to put an external
controller on the thing. Any suggestions?
Thanks
