[Repeater-Builder] Anyone Playing w/ CDM-1550s?

Has anyone found a way to move the window on a CDM-1550? I'd really like to have a 430-480 window in one radio rather than individual 408-470 and 450-512 radios. I remember that it might be able to be done in the HTs w/ programming battery but I don't think that applies to the mobile. Thanks, Bill

Thanks for the reply Jim, I'm speaking of a mixed user public safety system w/ fire, EMS, 3 PD zones and emergency management. In our system all of the users of a given channel have to be able to hear and interact with ALL other users on that channel AND the dispatcher - not what trunking was rea

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Uniden ARU-251

I remember that too, and they have a bad tendency to go flaky. Work the switch in and out rapidly and see if it behaves it itself. If you can get some tuner cleaner, clean it out good. If that doesn't work, you can trace out which contacts make when in 'Repeat' mode, and solder them together wi

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Uniden ARU-251

IIRC there is a front panel pushbutton switch which will interrupt the repeat function allowing the unit to act as a full duplex base station (non-repeat). I think it was marked Repeat/Local. Just a guess at this point. Mlt N3LTQ - Original Message - From: "Richard Bessey" <[EMAIL PR

RE: [Repeater-Builder] De-Sense and Circulator Question

Mark, I think 3M 1170 tape is the best choice. It is 2 mils thick, with a 1.2 mil layer of conductive acrylic adhesive. I prefer a smooth aluminum tape to an embossed tape, simply because I think distributed contact with conductive adhesive is better for RF than point-contact tape with non-condu
