This is a regular issue with many controllers, especially Trident
Raiders several Comm Spec units, and Motorola MTR-2000 repeaters.
Years ago Comm Spec supplied a small board that reset power to the
controller to eliminate the problem.
We installed power reset modules on all our repeaters,
Quickest and easiest method would be to install a ComSpec or similar PL
encode board.
Prices $10.00 to $30.00...

On UHF Models it used crystals same as a Motorola Maxar, and if equipped with

Acquisition cost for Tait units was high, however they are very

Hey guys
with MTR software (experienced with the MTR), look at the

Then you will know what channels are where, and if there is still a

For those of you that would rebuild a bad or questionable DB 420 by replacing

Pinnacle will give you a thesis size site application, usually before providing
any pricing.
If there is any way to work a deal with the current user to take over his
lease, might be cheaper.
Pinnacle has renegotiated some rates in our area, typically 10% less.
I suspect there are open slots
Ouch, that rate should be for about 6 repeaters and dual antennas,
unless you are in Chicago, New York or LA. Have the customer take a
very close look at the lease, they usually have auto-renew and hold
over, and they will collect !

Sold many of them, typical with a well tuned duplexer is about 10 watts
best, average 8-9 watts.
Would not waste any money trying to find a weak part, if the duplexer
is ok, leave it alone till it quits completely, won't see any difference
