More information about this project.
I have the station working - receiving, decoding proper PL tone, repeating,
transmitting audio, etc. The only thing it is NOT doing is encoding tone
for transmit. (A reminder - this is a Community Repeater MICOR chassis, NOT
the standard repeater chassis.)
Well, the MICOR Community Repeater manual supplement arrived today, and I've
been going through it with the proverbial fine-toothed comb.
I replaced most of the jumpers I originally removed from the backplane.
(According to the jumper matrix in the CR manual, they needed to be IN
whereas the
A simplified way to make it work would be to take out all cards. Modify the
station control per Kevins info in repeater builders. Find the Ptt of the
transmitter and run to the station control board. I have modified 2 this way
and they both work great. I use a separate micor sq chip but you
I know these stations have jumpers all over the place -
backplane, cards,
etc. - that all needed to be configured properly for the
thing to work the
way it should. I have the manuals, but I am stumped. I know
I'm missing
something, SOMEWHERE - my problem is: WHAT and WHERE?
Could be
Hi, Jeff - and thanks for the quick reply.
The number on the backplane does NOT match - but don't ask me what it is,
because I'm at work and can't get to the station right now. I should be
home by 3PM CDT, so I can post it then if necessary. I do know these were
repeater station originally, not
a jumper; there was an option to
cross-code PL's and a jumper had to be cut for that as I remeber it

I think the title said 'Instruction Manual-Supplemental'
in smaller print 'For use with Manual 68-xx'

Thanks Gary.
I did a search at Motorola parts for a manual starting with 68-81 and got
over 2600 responses. Of course, the suffix of E25 was not included in any
of the responses. The majority of the available manuals were for newer
series Astro products.
All of the responses I checked
no, the second line said 'Must be used in conjunction with Manual 68-x'

Well, that got me 6 responses, but nothing like what I need. or maybe. The

But I'm only guessing at this stage.

Thanks, Eric.
I'm not sure whether I need the Community Repeater supplement to configure
it to work with the 4-User Control card... In any event, I just found one
at everyone's favorite auction site, so I picked it up. If I don't need it,
I can add it to my library for future reference.

Joe and Eric,
OK, many thanks. I bought that manual earlier today from an eBay seller for
$14 -- MANUAL #68P81025E55-B. (Eric, I see the reference you sent wants $20
and it's an older manual to boot.)
The seller said it will be shipped first thing tomorrow, so I guess now I
just sit and wait.
