I have some micor repeaters with the Factory encode boards. I would like to

Any ideas?? Good thing i have manual or i would be lost. I
Hi all..I want to build a VHF repeater with two Motorola M120s..I have the
sixteen pin interface cables and have made a dual mount box and power supply for
them..Do I need other software apart from the norm M120 programming software and
do I need any other hardware..Help would be much
I wonder what the diameter of the center element, or plunger, was?
I think I still have one with the rivets drilled out, I'll measure when I
get a chance.

I need to interface a link receiver (Icom F221S) with an ACC RC-850.
This presents two problems. First, the Icom receiver uses active low
COS, and the RC-850 doesn't seem to have a means to select the sense
of a link receiver. The repeater receiver (Midland BaseTech II) uses
active high COS.
Hey,
The reverse of polarity is very simply achieved by using a one transistor stage
that will invert the input signal. For the audio boost use a TL071 opamp stage
circuit.
If you need further assistance please provide some documentation (schematic or
other relevant material) because I
I wonder if it is a noise floor problem. How does it act on a service
monitor when it is not hooked to an antenna picking up high levels of noise?

mosteverything you'll need to invert the COS.
You can either build a COS inverter or use an aftermarket squelch
board. Also you can try the LM386 amplifier for the audio.
See the following:

Here are a couple of simple circuits to do what you want. Use a well filtered
source of +V for the audio amplifier to keep from developing some hum on the
output. Any voltage source from +5 to +12 should work. Adjust the variable
resistor to set the gain of the audio amplifier.

Hi Everyone,
I'm thinking about buying a used service monitor for various projects,
and I've come across a few units that look good (from a price point) but
I can't find any data on them.
1) Racal Dana 6113G Digital Radio Test Set Service Monitor
2) Cushman CE-4000
3) HP 8924C
4) Ramsey COM3
The 8924c is nice. I have one of those. The 8920b manual will be of help
with that unit.
I've owned a com3. Was quick and easy but less featured, and less
expensive.

Hi Eric
Sorry to bother you, but the link for the harness drawings didn't work. Can you
e-mail to me or can I not find this info on the repeater builders web page?
Thanks.

The OD of the center conductor on a TX-RX 4 diameter 900 MHz cavity is
0.877 (probably 7/8 before silver-plating). It tapers slightly where the
fingers are cut into the bottom (open) end to grip the plunger.
The plunger will recede far enough up into the center conductor to allow for
resonance

Razvan, Eric, DCFlux, Jim,
Thanks for the great response. I think I can proceed with the info you
have provided. I should be able to build the simple circuits. Thanks.
What a great thing this RB!

I'm considering selling my IFR 1200S. If anyone is interested, please email me

If you're interested in a ball park selling price for a monitor of this
caliber, google IFR 1200S and see what the going prices are these days.

Tom, the receiver and squelch appear to operate normally when using a service
monitor to generate signal. Noise floor issues can certainly be a problem,
although a Motrac receiver works fine on the same exact antenna.
I guess I would then use the Motrac receiver for the time being.

Thanks for the responses so far. I didn't mean to incide a war over this, but
the going rate for an IFR 1200S is around $4,000 - the reason I'm looking for a
less expensive option.
If anyone can speak about Cushman monitors (the 4000) I have a lead on one of
those. Otherwise, I'll try my luck

That's really odd- the link works fine from both home and work computers.
Nevertheless, I have sent you the file directly.
