Milo, The number 19C328763G1 does not appear in the GE microfiche index as an end item, so I suspect that the number is actually the part number of the PC board itself. Was this number etched into the copper, or was it stamped in black ink? The number falls into the range of numbers used as aud

Joel, it will be almost the same, but instead of seeing the “waves” of the peak/pass and dip/notch., you will only see the vertical “spike” of the generated signal. Just like if you hooked the generator directly to the S/A. you will only be able to adjust for max pass of the desired freq (talles

Got you Don, thanks for responding. But I'm looking for something more specific as to, how one may hook up, the aforementioned equipment to do what the spectrum analyzer/with the TG does to obtain a set of duplexer tuned to a specific frequency. v44kai.Joel. - Original Message

Maybe so, but "break" it in half and have one end swaged to insert into the other. In fact, isn't that what DB and the other antenna manufacturers do anyway? Just thinking out loud... Mark - N9WYS -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com On Behalf Of Dave Gomberg Sent

No, you will only see the peak and skirts of the generated signal, you need to terminate all the duplexer ports with 3db 50 ohm pads and tune for pass first, lock those down them tune the reject path Bottom of first link is a sketch. 73 Don W5DK http://www.repeater-builder.com/wacom/wp6

Another factor that I have seen happen is the combination of the direct signal radiating from the antenna and the reflected signal bouncing back from the metal surface combining out of phase to give a null and resulting in a weird pattern effect. I think you should try to get your antenna well
