[Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater Conversion question
I have a quick question, which may be a simple answer... I am converting a Micor Base-R/T to 6m repeater. The question pertains to modifying the exciter and receiver.. I have located an exciter and receiver in a machine that was tuned (with channel elements included) to 49MHz.. is this the correct split for a 6m machine so that no modification to exciter or receiver are required? I would really rather skip the mod process if this is the correct split. TIA, mike Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater Conversion question
Don't count on it. You may still need to change a few caps. You'll know if you get a stage that won't peak. And by that, I mean you need to get to the peak and go past it, otherwise you are not really at the peak. Chuck WB2EDV Mike Perryman wrote: I have a quick question, which may be a simple answer...

I agree with Chuck, and here is a GREAT source of 6M Micor information: http://www.sasquatchnet.org/kb6mip/tech.html Kevin Chuck Kelsey wrote: Don't count on it.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater Conversion question
Have you tried Motorola directly? Kevin Kevin brings up a Great point , Sometimes We assume that Motorola is Extremely High for Parts, Manuals Etc, and found Cheaper on E-Pay, if you can even find them, But pick up the phone and Call, I have actually found them very receptive and helpful and Parts, manual at a reasonable price, New and Fast Shipping. I am sure some items will be high. Happy Repeater Building Don KA9QJG Yahoo!

I've had no ill effects thus far. RF Parts has a pretty good selection of dipped silver micas - try them too www.rfparts.com/caps2.html --- Jeff -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Perryman Sent: Monday, November 14, 2005 2:15 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Micor Repeater Conversion question Yep..
