Mike, FWIW - I tried to move back and forth through the bookmarks that opened to the left of this document. Each try resulted in a "404 error" in my web browser. Is this from some subscription or password access location, and because I'm not logged in myself I can't browse the document? Just cu

It's called "passive intermodulation"... Read this excellent writeup by Narda Corp (a manufacturer of high quality microwave stuff): Look for the section titled "CAUSES OF IMD IN FILTERS AND FERRITES" and points 1 and 6 are the m

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Celwave Stationmaster part identification help needed - RFS is useless

Eric, USE THE RADIALS. I tried using a couple that had lost them to the wind/ice also and the performance is pretty poor. I just made the radials out of some aluminum stock and bought a new hose clamp. RFS gave me the exact dimensions for the radials for 440-450. If I find them I'll post th

Hi Eric, It appears that a faulty installation of the jumper at the sidearm is the beginning of the problems, and eliminating all the adaptors you can is the other component. Regarding repairing the antenna: is it feasible to make your own jumper pig tail (perhaps from super flex) and permanentl

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Celwave Stationmaster part identification help needed - RFS is useless

Donno about UHF radials but I've fabricated my own for the VHF Stationmasters. If you are unable to locate the desired fitting you may be able to use a UHF double female barrel adaptor on the UHF male at the antenna and then use a UG-83 adaptor (which is a UHF male to type N female). I perso
