Joe, I don't think those three panel antennas are combined at all. Most cellular and PCS providers are using 120-degree panel antennas to cover three 120-degree sectors, each with its own base station, effectively tripling their capacity. The older omnidirectional antenna cell sites- usually a c

Yes. The duplexer itself doesn't require any changes, just new cables cut to the proper length, then proper tuning. There's a file on www.repeater-builder.com that has the end-to-end lengths for RG214. The two cables that go to the TEE connector are a different length than the other four. These u

This idea was in a ham magazine years ago, to solve a similar problem. It was on a very large tower, with a large face. This particular application used three sets of phased beams (two at each leg, fired tangentially to the tower). You have to start out with a bunch of gain at each leg, not just

Use a sinadder on the receiver when you set the frequency. Then swing the signal generator from side to side to see if the IF is symmetrical. That way you know that the frequency is set right to center the carrier in the receiver pass band properly 73 Gary K4FMX _ From: Repeater-

You will need to change the value of the cap in parallel with the trimmer to get it to go on freq. After that check it for excvessive temp drift. You may still have to send the whole element in. You can also try your other elements. Chris N9LLO
