The only place it starts getting that high is over at the Gualdalupe peaks and up in New Mexico. Mostly low hills between here and Lubbock, where the repeater that is 25 KHz above my freuency is located. 25 down is much closer, though I can't find the CTCSS tone for it. I could use a

Hi Rich, Just thinking along a creative theme... You can buy very small 3 pole double throw toggle switches. Depending on your specific requirements you might be able to use two of the poles to switch audio, the third pole pair to supply power and or switch power. It's also not hard to

Building an even splitter is no big deal for 50 ohms. I have cranked out hundreds over the years. Use a Wilkinson design. FOr two way its two pieces of 75 ohm coax, cut to 1/4 wave with velocity factor, like rg-179 and a 100 ohm resistor across the split ports. You even get a little

I did make one jumper using some RT142, with an RCA on one end, and an N on the other. Seemed to work okay. I still have that cable, I think, don't recall for sure. I used it with a Mastr II base from the RX port to a duplexer can. I did trim the insulation between the two shields so
