Certainly the 13-509 RX doesn't have much front-end filtering.
I had an FM76 convered to a 220Mhz repeater and used a GLB preselector in
front of the receiver. It helped a lot. Unfortunately, the GLB is no longer
available.

Hi Bob,
The Midland & Clegg receivers would be stomped
on like a "narc at a biker rally"... at most
of the major high level sites where the noise
floor is mostly a disaster and the rf is intense.
Nothing like a multi-kw FM Station or two, or
three or five nearby to let you know how good

I built one up and while it worked OK with an external preamp, the crystal drift over temp was always a problem even with a wide temp range crystal and to keep the heat in check, I reduced the power to 10 watts. It worked about 95% with the problem above on dead cold and over 105 temp days.

I have a spectrum 220 rec. It worked well in a site by it self. But
once I transferred it to the main site ful of wonderful pager Tx and
other com repeaters in the same site. Forgetaboutit. Regardless of how
much filtering. So we went to a Micor Rec. Problem solved.

Although the Clegg and Midland 13-509 radio mod to
repeater convertion works ok, the receiver is fairly
marginal for most busy repeater applications. You'd
do much better to buy a receiver designed for actual
repeater operation.
I like the preformance and output functions of the
