You are correct on the UHF modules, they are 50 ohms in and out and
won't need modified. Not the case however in VHF and other bands...

Hey Don, thanks for the info ... nice / handy web site,
When they were removed from the approved equipment list?
I know CAP has been removing a lot of equipment that once WAS approved
for CAP use.
Actually, don't most radios specify that they meet type acceptance as of
the date of manufacture? The implies that they may not meet the current
TA
Would any of you have a surplus TLN6709B Vibrasponder on 123.0 that you

Hello,
Hate to say this but the Fort Worth Star Telegram just removed the last few
80-D's from service about 5 years ago. They had been narrow banded and
transistor powers supplies installed while I worked for the two way shop in
the 70's. Were they not certified? Do you mean type accepted?
I haven't played much with Syntors, Maratracs, etc. I was only saying that
they were used in the Micor/Mocom line, as someone appeared to state that they
were only used back in the T-power/Twin-vee era.
I know my wording of used up to the Micor Mocom 70 line made it sound like

We install many of the flag pole antenna supports as

I have to ask, why no higher
than 8 dB? That negates the use of a DB-410 antenna by 1 dB, one of the
most popular antennas around.I would think from a lower site you
would want the highest gain antenna you could get since there would be no
over-shoot. I also understand the
