Re: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater
The first problem you have is that you are using non type accepted equipment in GMRS. Come to a full stop and seek out some type accested equipment to construct your repeater with.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater
Why, there are some standard RP-70 U Uhf repeaters already on GMRS on Ebay for around $75, just need crystals or maybe you can find on on a freq that you can get licensed in your area. They are only 10 watts but with the right site or an amp they would work fine.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater
Rob, The Alinco equipment is NOT FCC type accepted for commercial service of any kind. Matter of fact it is very illegal to have them on those frequencies. Check out the Type Acceptance number on the radios and look it up in the FCC files, it will tell you what you can do with it, the DR-605 is a Ham radio only, I know I have one. The Standard RP-70 is probably Type Accepted by the FCC for commercial use but may or may not do the bandwidth required for GMRS which I think is 12.5 KHz, I may be wrong on that bandwidth though. Whatever, it is not legal to have Amateur equipment on GMRS, FRS or any other commercial frequencies.

Quite true, which makes the above a moot point w.r.t. repeater operation. I just wanted to set the record straight on the RF performance of that model. It's the only radio that could survive our local "IMD alley" without falling apart. Bob NO6B

In this case, I would guess that most ALL of the "repeaters" being sold on eBay are not legal for GMRS. How do most people get one on the air for a reasonable expense without paying a grand or more?

Thank you to everyone for your help and comments! I plan to seek out help from a local commercial radio shop and have him set me up properly. I'm now in my fifties and have been a Ham since I was thirteen. No way do I want to jeopardize my ticket. I am not sure if this thread can be "closed" but I'm done. Sincerely: Brian Duerr/WB2JIX
Re: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater
About any Ham vintage rig made in last 15 years is not good for a repeater. On the receiver the clue is it has broad band receive. Some receivers have some tuning geared to the rcv freq, but very little. It is radically different than a rcvr with helical front end filter that has to be tuned if moving more couple MHz. The Ham repeaters are also a problem. The clue here is just connect a computer and set freq to one at DC to light range...well like for VHF, 134-174 MHz. The front ends must be designed to accept this and they do no matter what your op freq is. The other problem is the TX spurious emissions of only down 60 db. This noise then requires a 6 cavity duplexer or 100 db notch to make work well. Sure it works today, but what about next week when the weather changes. A good TX like a Micor or GE MII will have this at 80+ db range. Now a real good one like the Mot MSF5000 at 120 db. The type acceptance thing is another, but important issue. The type acceptance issue is why certain rigs are not allowed in certain places. This is one. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Date: 2008/03/24 Mon PM 09:55:03 CDT >To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com >Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for >Repeater > >At 3/24/2008 06:57, you wrote: > >>Front end is too broad > >Actually, the front-end of the DR-605 is one of the narrowest of the >current-production radios (I know, the 605 is no longer current production >but it's only been a couple of years). > >> and not legal for GMRS.. > >Quite true, which makes the above a moot point w.r.t. repeater >[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[] 9318:19:54 i 9491692 216.252.122.217 [EMAIL PROTECTED]@[] >918:19:54 d 9491691 [EMAIL PROTECTED] S 0 pr=groups-email-ff-m >id=2275891-m1655918:19:54 d 9491691 [EMAIL PROTECTED] S 0 pr=groups-email-ff-m >id=2275891-m1655918:19:54 d 9491691 [EMAIL PROTECTED] S 0 pr=groups-email-ff-m >id=2275891-m1655918:19:54 d 9491691 Yuedragpan class="left"> > Messages in this topic (20) >Reply (via web post) | Start a new topic >Messages|Files > |Photos|Links|Members > > > > Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!

Re: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater
Paul & Rob, The issue with having the rig capable of transmitting on GMRS can be a problem. Many Ham rigs can be legally opened for MARS, etc use and this will often open for many other frequencies. I would say if the rig were in a repeater then a problem. I would think just having the rig would not be an issue, but having it installed, but not used and especially wired would be a problem. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: Paul Finch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: 2008/03/24 Mon PM 03:43:19 CDT >To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com >Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for >Repeater > >Rob, The Alinco equipment is NOT FCC type accepted for commercial service of >any kind.

Narrow front ends are always good to have in RF-congested areas, but not all repeaters are deployed in such areas. In a rural setting, sensitivity is more important than selectivity. Bob NO6B
