Bob, I need option cards but, at I don't have a Micor manual as yet, I can only give you the description printed on the card tray. If you have an email that I can send the list to, email me at tallinson2 yahooo comm. $5.00 each as is is fine with me. Tom --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com

I think you had mentioned that you are not too far from the repeater. What about connecting 10 feet of really poor shielded coax (aka Radio Shack) to the radio with a dummy load on the other end? This may give you enough antenna to work the repeater and still stay within acceptable RF emissio

Thanks to everyone who posted a reply. I should have said that we operate VHF-High band. After reading the posts, I began to inspect my office. My desk backs up against an interior wall separating me from a room containing a bunch of filing cabinets. I drilled though the wall, ran some coax t

John, General setup, I'm not directly familure with this unit. The Icom needs to operate as a full duplex base radio instead of as a repeater. The internal controller will most likely not be used, unless it can provide an ID function. This might be done via programming or a switch (Rpt/Local

Mike, Maybe you've tried this, but taking an HT on your input freq and sniffing around the TV might give idea of where it is coming from. Might be on power cord or antenna. If on power lead could put simple inline wrap cord around choke. Would act as low pass filter. On antenna lead might

Yeah I wouldn't have expected the bandpass filter to help with this. Does it happen when the TV is tuned to a certain channel? All TVs have a local oscillator. But even if it turns out to be the local oscillator, it probably will not be easy to fix or even reduce. Laryn K8TVZ --- In Repeater-
