I have had a few dealings with Campers in general wiring etc. I they
use White for Ground on AC and Neg on DC.
in general they don't come up to code' some of older ones will not work
with Ground falt breakers they wave in most Camp grounds.
if you will tell me what you

What are the most popular and most dependable radios to use on a
voting system? I know some guys that use GE Phoenix SX radios for
linking. Would they be good for receiving on VHF and then linking
back to the main site to the voter on UHF? Also, is the RVS-8 from
LDG a good
HELLO,
We have extensive experience with the RVS8 voter here in New York. We, N2ROW
and myself, have a 440 system with 3 stand alone repeaters and 3 extra
voting receiver sites scattered around the 5 Boros and Nassau County. Our
observations: the receivers MUST be all identical, as is true with

Bruce,
One common method of combining two receivers is to use a coax tee at the
antenna feedline and 1/4 wave pieces of 75 ohm coax from the tee to each
receiver. This can be expanded to four receivers using six pieces of 75 ohm
coax, but probably isn't worth the effort.
If the received

simplify the clutter... daisy-chain 'em like an old ethernet setup.
Tee's right on each RX input (except the last), odd-QW jumpers between.

Hello,
I just installed a new 6-ch VHF MPT1327 system using MTR2000 Motorola
repeaters (100W) with optional preselectors installed, a Telewave
M101-150-6TRM combiner, and Sinclair RM201-112S1B RX multicoupler.
Antenna system is two DB228, one RX, one TX. RX antenna in on top of
tower, RX is a bit
Not knowing what the Telewave and Sinclair part numbers translate into in
terms of the actual hardware in use, you'll need to provide some details.
First of all, what kind of filtering is done on the tx combiner and rx
multicoupler? Is the tx combiner hybrid-ferrite or cavity-ferrite? What is
Marty,
The Phoenix and RVS-8 should work well for you. I have been rebuilding
a system here in the Detroit area and have used the RVS-8 and Motorola
GM-300 and M120s. I have been trying to find the time to take pictures
and do a write-up to be posted on the web site, but that is still a
few

Hi Bob,
The Midland Clegg receivers would be stomped
on like a narc at a biker rally... at most
of the major high level sites where the noise
floor is mostly a disaster and the rf is intense.
Certainly the 13-509 RX doesn't have much front-end filtering. What

Usually it depends on what you can find in quantity, and with
documentation. I recommend that you read the two voting articles

Why waste a broadband radio for one channel?
I know a person who might be using a Kenwood TK805 for
an Echolink station. Probably a waste but the radio is
conveniently handy

Mike,
I haven't noticed this
Neil,
Not to butt in here but most of us guys dont have a dump truck to haul around an old MOCOM 70 and to boot where the heck are you going to get repair parts for it as well. Oh i know Neil's warehouse ha ha.

I think you are confused Neal, the GaAs FET option was available on
GLB P/P 200 MHz and above. I did have them build me one for 2 meters,
but I didn't see much difference in the performance over the MRF-901 on
2 meters; certainly not worth the added cost.

Bypass the multi-coupler preamp if possible to see what

I don't think I have said thanks recently to Eric Lemmon, Al Wolfe,
Skipp, RS Gilmore, and to anyone else I,ve got info from. I,m still
tring to get bigger with my system. I found that going with more
simplicity is better than ellaborate in my system anyway. Thanks again
to all. Bruce KD4BOH.
These are pretty affordable from Chatsworth or most of the equipment rack
suppliers. I don't have any spares laying around or I'd give them away,
don't get the opportunity to use them much.
Good luck,
