Thia unit is a slide-out drawer from a PURC5000 paging transmitter. It was used as a 72MHz link receiver to receive analog modem tones from a paging control point. The audio then fed the controller in the PURC5000 to digitally moduate the transmitter with Pocsag or other data. These drawer uni

I have tuned Motrac L receivers (both extender and non-extender versions) to 52.525 MHz and 53.29 MHz and the front ends tuned up fine with no slugs visibly near the edge of their range. What you will have to change on the Motrac L receiver in the injection chain. 3 caps need to be lowered in val

I can't be 100% sure about your particular radio, but years ago I had a Motrac on 52.525 and I do not remember changing any parts. It was a high split radio on 47 MHz. I do remember it had the noise blanker option and it tuned up very well and met rated sensitivity and the power out was right on al

Does the Motrac style preselector tune on the high end of 6 Meters, 53.7 MHz without capacitor changes? It seems that modifications to the preselector would be difficult, as it appears to be hand wired - assembled. Breaking a coil seems easy to do.

One of my 900 MHz PURC5000 manuals has several Micor receivers in it, including 72 MHz. There's also a section that seems to cover the chassis, although I don't know if it's the same one you have. It might be. One board has a squelch pot and an RJ45 jack on it. If that's mounted directly behind

I agree. It's probably the PURC5000 Link Receiver option C659 to C663, or C850. The manual 6881064E10 is still available from Motorola Parts for about $17. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Milt Sent

Mark, I have a manual for a 68P1056A35 MOTRAC C74MSY-3101AY and BY community repeater. It shows the BY uses a TLN1684A master decode. I didn't come forward before because I didn't see that number mentioned. part # TLN5803A is the kit number for the master decode board in a TLN1684A module. P

Larry, I think you are headed in the right direction. I have most of a MSF-5000 purc station and it has a UHF receiver much as you described your 72 MHz receiver. I was surprised when I removed the covers and found a Micor UHF receiver and Micor PL decoder inside the chassis. I have the receiver,

I thought the community repeaters could decode and encode separately. In other words, there's no requirement that the received PL tone match the transmitted PL tone. If that's the case, then the PL decoder is supposed to remove any received PL tone, which sounds exactly like what yours is doing.
