Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: no power out of duplexer SOLVED with more questions - Thanks for the answers
I agree. The users would not even notice if you cut the power in half. One 2 meter repeater we took over was running on the 10 watt exciter with the amp bypassed for I don't know how long. The caretaker before we got it bypassed the amp because of desense or intermod or self oscillation issues, we used to have some high powered VHF paging transmitters close by that were exactly 600 Khz apart and no circulator, We are now blessed because they moved to 900. It was only when were replacing the functioning repeater we discovered the amp was bypassed, He never told anyone. tom On 9/7/2010 11:50 PM, Glenn (Butch) Kanvick wrote: Hi John.

It seems when a repeater goes up anywhere, someone will complain about something to do with it. Thanks and 73 John, W3ML

Hi John. Sometimes you might not want to tel the others what you do to the repeater, then they cannot complain about any adjustments that you make.
