More likely he had the radio programmed wrong.

I agree. The users would not even notice if you cut the power in half.
One 2 meter repeater we took over was running on the 10 watt exciter
with the amp bypassed for I don't know how long. The caretaker before
we got it bypassed the amp because of desense or intermod or self
oscillation issue
Hi John.
Sometimes you might not want to tel the others what you do to the repeater,
then they cannot complain about any adjustments that you make.

His antenna could be in a null. It happens, as Murphy is a ham.

Thanks to everyone for their comments and answers about my questions.
I did turn it back so I am sure someone will say something. Once when a ham
said he could not hit it, I drove over and sat outside his house with a 25 watt
radio and brought it up with an S8 signal.
It seems when a repeater g

John, here's a more subtle lesson on repeaters,
Hi,
70 watts out sounds OK. Duplexer's usually have about a 1 - 2db loss
depends how they are set up, size of cavities etc and the model type.
Duplexer loss = 10log(Pin/Pout) Duplexer Loss = 10Log(70/100)=
-1.54dB.

In that spirit. Going from 80 to 100 watts is 0.97 db better. That's probably
not an improvement your users will notice. When one considers what a pain it is

Okay Tim.
That sounds like a wise idea especially since we have an old GE Mastr II and
may not take much use at full power out.
Thanks and 73

In that spirit. Going from 80 to 100 watts is 0.97 db better. That's probably
not an improvement your users will notice. When one considers what a pain it is
when the PA dies, it might not be worth it. Just my 2 cents but I think you're
better off leaving the amp at 80 watts.

We did most of those and then found the problem. The T-connector center pin
had broken off when we apparently hooked up some test equipment and did not

I still have one question though.
Is it normal to have 100 watts coming out of radio and only 70 watts coming out
