I need some info on the UHF MSR2000 PA. Is the tripler section of the UHF MSR2000 located in the PA it self? I have a UHF MSR2000 and was thinking of using it for a link transmitter. I looked on the MSR section here but didn't see anything about the tripler. Thanks for any help in adavance Mike

The MSR2000 PA is all UHF. Multiplication is done on the exciter board. RF output of the exciter is around 1/2 watt.   Bill KB1MGH --- On Sun, 3/8/09, mike m...@verizon.net wrote: From: mike m...@verizon.net Subject: [Repeater-Builder] MSR2000 To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday,

Hi Dave, You need a N Male T and the cables should work fine. I like to use the outside of the cans for the TX RX connections but to each his own. It will work the way you have it just add the T. Mike Colorado Telecom, L.L.C Mike Mullarkey 6886 Sage Ave Firestone, Co 80504

It looks like an older DB-4076. However, the model # on the sticker shows it's an SP (special production) model. Between the type N connectors there is a little cap. Remove that cap - do you see a trimmer cap inside? If so, it's likely it's a DB-4076 or close relative. If not, then the

Dave, My guess is that the duplexer was manufactured for Motorola by Decibel Products from the SP-x on the model identification plate as pictured in your photos. The duplexer appears to be a pass band type circuit from the separate input and output coupling loops on each filter and from

Dave, I don't have to guess about the model number- it's printed on the label. But, you won't find this unit in a Decibel Products catalog, because it's a custom-made device as indicated by the SP in the model number. Although your unit could be a duplexer that is missing one jumper and a tee

Dave, These look similar to the Motorola T1504 series duplexers, but not exactly. Look here. http://www.repeater-builder.com/motorola/t1500.html Your best bet is to follow Eric's suggestion and call DB Spectra for the exact application and specifications. Other than that, it appears as
