[Repeater-Builder] R100 TX power Help
Hi Guys, I'm newbie in this list and I need help... I'm trying to reprogramming a MCR100 (MAL43XXX series ) to a 2m repeater: 1) I Have change all the frequency data with the r100 software with success; 2) I have tune the RX VCO (L201) to a maximum of 4.35 Volts DC (The motorola manual claims to be 7.0V DC) but it's working :-); 3) I have tune the TX VCO to a maximum of 7.40 Volts and the repeater TX seems to work but with only a few milliwatts of output... Yes, The problem is the power!:-( I have turn the R463,R453 and R455 to full power (CW) but it doesn't I have 1.984 Volts DC max in R463(test point CV) (and R477 too) What I have miss? I don't find any more tuning procedures in the motorola service manual... Any help would be fully appreciated.. 73 Carlos
