[Repeater-Builder] Re: Cushman CE3
I have a Cushman CE3 service monitor. Its great for 2 meter and 6 meter use, but doesn't cover 430 to 450 mhz. At one time Cushman had an add-on that allowed coverage of 430 to 450. If anyone has information about the add-on, please advise.

OK, more info The PLL? goes into unlock below 450.000Mc. So that was the subject of my question, although I didn't say so. The preselector is the tunable 140-175Mc unit. As you know, it is switchable to an ultra- wide mode with no tuning. So it seems that won't get in the way once the frequency selection circuits are happy. What else might get in the way of operating below 450? There's got to be way, right? Laryn K8TVZ Yahoo!

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Cushman CE3
The CE3 should work at 2 meter ham band. I know that it works (normaly) in the vhf band and the 450 commertial bands because it is what I used for several years before the CE50 and the CE4 came alongin our shop. IF It goes out of lock when you try say, setting it for 155.000 mhz there is a problem with yours. I would try and get all info that I could find including a service manual. There should be at least one company out there that could work on it for you. It's an OLD BEAST, but I would to have one. The one that I used lasted for ever.. 73 AC0Y --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "Laryn Lohman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > OK, more info > > The PLL? goes into unlock below 450.000Mc.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Cushman CE3
No problem in the 2M band. The issue is below 450.000, the 70cm ham band. Seems such a shame it stops at 450. Neil, I read your post about the kit. I'm sure that is on the shelf at the factory . Thanks for the replies guys. It doesn't sound like a fast and easy mod.

Probably less expensive to replace with a HSO reference oscillator. 'Rock stoves' are old technology. --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "Steve S.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Cushman CE3
The CE3 would not cover 440-450, the CE2A would. Don't know of any mod. Used a CE3 from 75 thru 81 with only a scope xformer fail, and several replaceable pads in the generator line lost their smoke and fuse.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Cushman CE3
I believe that factory option was called the M20 kit or similar. We had one in our shop that had that done. Took a return trip to the factory to get it installed.

I saw the smaller file on the Deviation Meter go through, but the entire book took longer, but they disappeared somehow! Then someone suggested that I upload them to www.repeater- builder.com, and while the smaller file also apeared to upload ok, the book just kept reinitialzing.. but never would upload! I haven't found where they went to unless Yahoo blocked or removed them, or something.. For trying to do good, it got frustrating and unexplained!!

No, and its been a while since then... I might have to do it all over again, and see what happens!! I didn't know that the CE-3 wasn't linear through the spectrum, nor about any serial number dividing line. But then if it wasn't, and the coverage was chopped up, I may have used a harmonic..!! But that uploading was frustrating!! Dick > > Thanks > > Laryn K8TVZ >
