I like them, but they are expensive. They used to make a RI-310 which replaced the factory control boards inside a Vertex VXR-5000 repeater entirely, the RI-310 controlled the receive and transmitter oscillators and power which meant you could do some really neat things with macros. The RI-300

Jed, I am using the RI310 controller, which is designed to be a drop-in controller for the Vertex VXR-5000 repeater. It is very flexible and capable. Best of all, you can pose any questions about its use to the designer at the factory, and get sound advice directly from the source.

I put up a 5000 about 6 months ago and it works well but you are correct in that the ctcss deviation is not adjustable separately. Mine runs around 900hz also with the total with voice set at 4.9khz. Nobody notices a hum though. wb5oxq - Original Message - From: wd8chl To:

Hey guys, I am in the process of designing a rather large repeater system. Any thoughts on telewave duplexers? I've heard a lot of great things about them, but the only thing I have to compare it with is txrx. Thoughts? Thanks, Jed

2008-12-10 Thread Jed Barton
Hey guys, I have a project where a customer wants to go all tait. Here's the million dollar question, what repeater should we get? What holds up better, the TB7100 or TB8100? Can someone point out the differences? I'm a little new to the tait world. Thanks, Jed
