My statement regarding "tuning" did not explicitly refer to the actual
tuning of the duplexer, but to the matching of the TX and duplexer in
combination. This can be proven if two Birds are used, one between the TX
and the duplexer input and the other between the duplexer output and the
antenna.

Adding a wattmeter or any other length of cable between the transmitter and
the duplexer Tx input port has no effect on the tuning of the duplexer. It

Bernie,
When you put the Bird between the TX and the duplexer, you have changed the
length of the jumper cable, which upset the tuning. But, really, you need
not worry about what the SWR is, if the forward power to the antenna is
appropriate.
Let's say you have a 4-can duplexer, which might have
Bernie,
A typical VSWR for a duplexer would be 1.5:1 or less, more like less. Will not
be 1:1 most times, but low. A lot lower than your 65/25W which is more like a
4.5:1 VSWR.
Really sounds as the duplexer is out of tune or has an internal problem.
Wonder if you tuned these from another ban

If the duplexer is correctly tuned, there will be NO measurable SWR into it. If
you have 25/60 watts, it is way off frequency.

Generally the duplexer only makes a slight contribution to the reflected
power. How doe the reflected power between the transmitter and antenna,
without the duplexer in line look? Steve NU5D

Anyone one know what to expect SWR wise with a duplexer?
I have a DB products 2 meter duplexer on an amateur repeater.
Measuring with a Bird wattmeter between the duplexer and antenna I
read 50W forward and a couple watts reverse. That is ok. But when I
check between the transmitter and the TX port
Comm Spec sells a programmable CW ID for about $60.
However, what is the PROM...part number. I might have a programmer for it.
Might even have the PROM.

Spectrum sells a replacement prom from about $55, which is kind

Nothing wrong with the MSR-2000 repeater in carrier squelch. I've

If you have some time, a pot of coffee and the XM-150 playing low

easy enough. Not a lot of fun... but it can be done...

I agree with Ron, an attenuator will present the correct load to the
exciter.

Hi Tim,
Looking at our S-7R manual about the optional CWID, it is factory programmed.
We use the id from our controller as the id source.

Hi everyone.
Anyone knows something about programming Direct Mode Freq in the
Motorola MTP 700 TETRA radio? Does anyone have the RSS?
Thanks.
Hi.
Need all the help and info i can get about this repeater. PIN-
connection on the back specifick.
Thanks.
It might work, but for how long. Also detuning the cavity might upset the
loading making the exciter unhappy. This can cause many RF problems including
spurious generation.
I would consider building a 16 db antenuator.
