I don't know the current situation, but for years the antennas were inside

Any reason you can't use the connector that's listed in the Mouser catalog
above or below the UG-58? It's still an N female, four-hole chassis mount.

Anyone have any ideas what a set of Sinclair C-3037 multicouplers are
worth? For the 450 to 470 Mhz band.
Here is the Sinclair site info;

Please contact me off list.
Thanks, Eric, VA3EAM
On Ebay for this assembly... the sharks alone would probably
bid it up to min $150.00
The bare quality UHF cavities alone are worth min $50 each
on Ebay... use the words Transmit Combiner in any part of
your auction listing and watch the sharks circle and the
feeding frenzy start.
Gary,
The new Military Specification for the UG-58/U panel jack is M39012/04-0002,
available here:
www.dscc.dla.mil/Downloads/MilSpec/Docs/MIL-PRF-39012/prf39012ss4.pdf
The only panel jack that meets the Mil-Spec has a silver-plated brass body,
a gold-plated center contact, and a PTFE (Teflon)
I've searched high and low but not found my Celwave catalogs. The RFS site was
no help. Can someone confirm that the CD220-B is for 220 MHz? Their naming
conventions appear straight forward. And if indeed for 220, has anyone used one
in the ham band on a repeater?
Thanks
Mike/W5JR
Mike,
Although my Celwave catalog does not show the CD220 isolators, I believe
that they were made for 220 MHz service. This seems logical, since the
CD150 series is for 136-174 MHz, the CD280 series is for 250-285 MHz, and
the CD460 series is for 406-512 MHz. However, the range of a specific

Ray,
It seems a shame to use a full-duplex radio, complete with an internal
controller, as a base station- but it will work. Since the R1225 has
separate TX and RX connectors- the rear one is TX and the front one is RX-
you will need to install a T/R relay in order use a single antenna.
900mhz is unforgiving.
Make sure you are getting a silver plated connector.
RF Parts has the actual UG58 that you need for $2.85,
on the page at http://www.rfparts.com/c-typen.html
but they do have a $25 minimum. I'm sure that you
can find something else on the their web site to make
up the

I'll trade you that R1225 for an equivalent half-duplex radio (GM300)
that already has a nice built-in control head and T/R relay

I spent the weekend working on a set of DB4060 cans (cleaning and retuning)

And as a follow up to my first question, as I understand it. there should be

Mike,
Not necessarily! Some duplexers are asymmetrical, meaning that one side
is intended for pass low and notch high, while the other is for pass high
and notch low. When the manufacturer puts TX and RX labels on the
connectors, it leads some folk to invert the tuning- often leading to grief.
Eric,
I've run them on a spectrum analyzer as I have them installed now (TX and RX
swapped from original conjuration) and they still seem to pass just fine.
maybe a dB or so of loss. Based on that, I think I'm okay. agreed?
All I need to do is figure out which cable goes where!
Mike
