[Repeater-Builder] VXR-5000 external amp
Is anybody using an external amplifier with a Yaesu VXR-5000 repeater ? If so please fill me in as to what type of amp you are using along with a description of the configuration. I appreciate it !
[Repeater-Builder] VXR-5000 Spur
I recently acquired a VXR-5000 UHF repeater on 442.650 PL 100.0, it seems to be generating an on freq carrier even when not keyed!!! Almost like the exciter is staying on although the service monitor shows no power being transmitted Anybody else ever have this problem and what is the fix? Brian nb9e
RE: [Repeater-Builder] VXR-5000 Spur
Brian, How did you detect the carrier? If you used a handheld radio in the vicinity of the repeater, then yes, the exciter's oscillator is running all the time. Most likely, your VXR-5000 is an earlier model that has single-shield coax jumpers inside the cabinet. I have a VXR-5000 repeater on GMRS, and I eliminated that leakage by replacing all three jumpers with RG-400/U double-shielded cable. Check to ensure that ALL of the module shield covers are in place, with ALL cover screws installed and tight. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:repeater-buil...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Brian R.

[Repeater-Builder] VXR-5000 RX Audio
I've got an UHF VXR-5000 that has recently developed a problem. The RX audio dies from the repeater to the controller. I still get a COR and the TX audio is unaffected. I traced the problem to the repeater and not the controller. I power down the repeater for 30 seconds, power it back up and the problem is gone. A week later, the issue reappears and the whole cycle starts over. Any ideas? Derek, N9UPW

[Repeater-Builder] VXR-5000
Anyone can tell me a simple way to tune a small 6 cavity duplexer on 448 - 443 for a VXR-5000 Vertex repeater, never done one before. It's a Vertex Model DXU B series duplexer that I purchase with the VXR-5000, this is the same repeater that I'm looking CSC CWID 51B information about, still can't find my manual to do the pinout, Thanks for all your help, Mike A N1KTD Yahoo!

This group has a lot of readers all across the USA, and in many places in the world, and if you say where in 1-land you are there is a much better chance of someone popping up and saying I'm 25 minutes south of you, come on over. Or something like that.
