Are you trying to use the original Micor decoder or a Com-Spec TS-64? ? -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL

has this repeater ever worked ?

For the TS-64, you NEED to use discriminator (or other non-deemphasized audio source) in order to decode CTCSS. Exactly where are you taking receiver audio?

You need to feed your decoder with discriminator audio. The Micor de-emphasized audio has little below 300 Hz, Jack K6YC - Original Message - From: Daniel M LePage To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 06, 2007 10:07 AM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater can not use TS-64 I have a Micor repeater that I can not get the CTCSS tone through the receiver.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater can not use TS-64
Dan, When a Micor station is equipped with a PL tone decoder, such as the TRN6002A, a high-pass filter is inserted into the audio chain which blocks any frequencies below about 300 Hz. Since the PL tone can cause problems if it is allowed to pass through the receiver audio chain, it is usually filtered out and regenerated later. If you need to detect an incoming PL tone with an outboard decoder, you will need to use flat (discriminator) audio prior to de-emphasis. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel M LePage Sent: Tuesday, March 06, 2007 10:07 AM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater can not use TS-64 I have a Micor repeater that I can not get the CTCSS tone through the receiver.
