 Good Afternoon Gentlemen,
 I am looking to build a hi-fi quality audio repeater to feed audio for 
 remote broadcasts of a non-commercial radio station which has been 
 greatly annoying, as I need a specific IF filter for a motorola 
 receiver a tu-540w and I have been unable to find the filter. In 
 addition, the chief engineer for the station has been completely un-
 helpful. While I am not an amateur radio operator, I am building this 
 repeater for amateur radio use on the 144-148 mc band and the engineer 
 of the station claims he has an amateur radio license, but i am 
 beginning to have my doubts and the engineer has not been supportive of 
 building a hi-fi audio repeater. how can i confirm if the engineer has 
 a amateur radio license? is there a listing of engineers and what 
 licenses they have? i went through a lot of trouble to find the older 
 tube type equipment to build this hi-fi quality audio repeater and want 
 to make it work to serve the non-commercial fm station. what suppliers 
 carry older motorola radio parts?

Nope.

The RX in the Micor uses a different IF than the MSR, and
the elements are totally different..

The MSR and the Mitrek not only use the same crystals, they use
the same elements.

Are you replacing a Micor with an MSR ?

[Repeater-Builder] Sinclair duplexor question

Am tuning a Q202G duplexor up. It was originally set up for the 161 meg 
range.
They appear to tune down to the ham bands but do not like the 
transmitter loss. Over 2 db.
The manual from the site does not say anything about harness lengths.
Do I need to change the harness or anything else?

Please forward info, price, etc. I will need two antennas if this

Not the CB antenna company. I sell several of them, and they work

A passive system as you describe might work. Use a yagi outside pointed

at the tower, and run it to a gain antenna omni inside. Use GOOD coax, 
at least 9913.
STAY AWAY from those active devices!!! For starters, they are illegal 
unless you get permission from the carrier (not likely). Poor 
construction and improper installation has caused oscillation, spurs, 
and interference to other cell carriers, and worse, other radio 
services, including public safety systems on 800 MHz.
