Could somebody make similar measurements on a RP2000V? I don't have
one...
I made similar measurements on two RP4000V's here, and both had anywhere
from .6 to 1dB of desense depending on how close the two cables were.
Swapped inner cables with some made from RG142 and a pair of Delta

Dave,
One posting stated the rigs in the repeater were modified ID-1 and ID800s.
Does this appear to be what is being used???
These rigs spec lower than typical good quality repeater rigs in spurious
emmissions which can produce wide band noise affecting the performance using a
duplexer.
Most often a double shielded cable will have more loss than a single shielded.
This can be seen with RG8 vs RG214 or the like. I am not saying use RG8, but
loss is most often not the issue in this case. It is the radiation or leakage
which even in RG8 with 60% shield the radiation loss at
Bob,
Good repeater builders and engineers are often Purists. Some get real burned
by not being one.
I guess it is ok for some to just duck tape it and be done with it. I have
been told so many times I know it don't meet spec, but it works. 6 months
later they are reworking it to make it

if i may ask
did you get a web site wwhere you could buy one ?
what i am finding are kit web site
thanks

I wonder what the effect would be of having grommeted incoming coax into the
repeater module and terminating; soldered direct to the chassis pcb(socket
removed), such that all typical connector losses are eliminated in this
relatively permanent installation, after initial metered tests are
Adrian,
Would reduce the losses some, but for maintance issues do like some connectors.
Also getting inside some of these rigs is a chore, hi.
I think repackaging the ICOM repeater would be good idea. That big box with
the small rigs is such a waste. It does allow for a mobile duplexer
Adrian,
From the front panel of the repeaters does not seem to be much there, power sw
and cat5 conn.
One could take the repeater and repackage doing as you said by mounting rigs as
they are now close to front with connector and box short enought to have N conn
coming out the back. Could
Greg,
One issue brought up by others is in your test you used a 50 Ohm dummy load
which is good for testing in some environments. We all use good dummy loads
for testing as we should.
In real test one would like to test with actual loads. As in RF feedline 101

as we just sit and wait for our G2 to arrive and the only thing we can

can try in the meantime. I am not a Linux gury but I have some
