Since you are not seeing a doubling of the notch depth with the two
cavities in line, I suspect the cable length is incorrect as Eric
pointed out.
You also mention the tuning caps seems a little flaky. They
shouldn't. It may be that they have been lightning damaged, since
that is a known issue
Don't forget to figure the velocity factor of the cable you use.

I would agree -- the R1225 is a great radio, forget about the rest of
the GR chassis.

You are likley to find that a 50 watt repeater transmitting on the same roof as
any other VHF radios (in the same command vehicle) will desense the other
radios.
I would recommend you consider something in the 20 watt or less range.
This is a case where less is better, especially since you ar
You will probably have to look for a used GR1225 repeater or perhaps a NOS
from a dealer as they were canceled by Motorola several months ago along with
the GR500 and RKR1225.

Hi RAY,
I would suggest the ICOM CY repeater as this is the same setup I installed in
the command trailer for Montgomery Co Search & Rescue in TX.
It is similar to the Mot unit but is made up of 2 mobile units so if you have a
problem with 1, just that 1 could be swapped out.
This unit does have

Why limit yourself..?
With the right hardware and gam
Well...
First:
If you have the original cable set and know the frequency of
design... might be prudent to replace them into service to see
if you can obtain the spec'd notch value.
Second:
You might note the IFR 1600's generator output value and
crank it up min 10dB and better yet 20 dB. T
Hello,
Just bought an MSR2000. Got it working fine here at home, with a hb COR
circuit.
Took it to the site where there is a CAT500 controller. Hooked the CAT500
power to an A+ spot on the backplane. Power up and only the transmitter was
working. Receiver seemed completely dead. The A+ had fa

I have seen 4 and 5 levels of replies lately.
Makes it kinda hard to slog through the messages.

The TS-2000 serial commands are similar to most other recent Kenwood

Has anyone seen information on how to account for connector length when
wanting to build a cable of a specific length (i.e. half wavelength)?
I have a used 10 watt UHF R1225 repeater module for sale.
Bench tested and guaranteed to work.
Model M04GRC90C2AA
Best offer, please reply off the list.
It depends on the connector.
N-male crimp connectors for RG214 and RG142/400 all add exactly 0.5 inches to
the length of the center conductor, so if you need a cable that has to be
exactly 12 inches from end-to-end using N-males (where the center pin does NOT
extend outside the barrel of the co

I hope I'm not treading on anybody's toes here..
This is one page of a publication I have on hand.
Mike at Repeater Builder: not sure if "the duplexer tuning guide"
by Bob Majewski is still in publication, as the copy right is dated 1991.
I can fwd further info if you want to chase it up for your
I talked to DB once about the DB 4060, and the cables are the same length for
all of the DB 4060-A, B and C series duplexers.
So according to DB you do not need to change the cables.
I hope this helps.

A friend of mine is looking for a 220 duplexer & found the above. Any
comments? I see the notch depth spec. is only 70 dB, which seems sort of
minimal to me.

I think the Sinclair Q2221E duplexer would probably be okay for a low-power
repeater, say, 15 to 18 watts, but it wouldn't be my first choice. More
info is here:
