To be sure we all understand what you are trying to accomplish: are you looking for a suitable connection point for an S-meter type reading? In the Mitrek, this can be found at the metering socket, pin 1. Can't help with the Tait George, KA3HSW / WQGJ413 -Original Message-

Hey Rick, You can format a floppy with / using an old DOS computer, and make a DOS boot disk. May be able to download one from bootdisks.com. Then insert the floppy with RSS and run it. Works for me. 73's Russ K4RCC From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

True, but the broadcast band notch (not the 900 band) stub from a section of coax will have a fairly low Q... translated to mean it might be a popcorn fart (not nearly enough). Plus you want to use (if possible) a notch cavity that has a dc shunt to ground. Minumum you should use a section of

It may not run well on that fast of a machine. remember that old DOS software used clock pulses from the computer for timing. But it might at least be worth a try. Let us know, Ric, If it DOES work OK that way (DOS boot disk on fast machine)!! I need to come up with some options for the
