Re: [Repeater-Builder] isolation

Eric, and list... Kevin, I agree with your conclusions- provided that the exciter meets your expected performance. I would never assume that I could automatically subtract 22 dB from the proposed isolation, merely because it was a PLL exciter, without knowing for certain that its

RE: [Repeater-Builder] isolation

While I'll agree that more isolation, then what is needed to insure no desense is a waste; if this gentleman is suggesting that isolation in reserve is a waste, I strongly disagree. Why? Operating conditions can change - snow and especially ice on the repeater antenna can detune the

Re: [Repeater-Builder] isolation

I'll second what Kevin said and add: What if you want to upgrade? If you only purchased what you needed before, it may no longer be adequate for your new system which may have more power or a higher sensitivity receiver. Better to buy extra isolation now and not need it than to buy less and

Hope someone may have a program,commshop? What I need to know is what amount of isolation with duplexers that is required for a GE m2 reciever with .1...@12db and a m2 pll exciter,100 watt PA on vhf,600kc split?1/2in helix,with 4pole db224 antenna at 70 ft. thanks kj4si

Re: [Repeater-Builder] isolation

Eric, Are you sure about your six-cavity recommendation? The MASTR II PLL exciter has 22 dB less side-band noise than a typical multiplier exciter - using 600 kHz TX to RX separation. Assuming his preamp isn't driven into a non-linear region (it shouldn't be), a good 4 cavity duplexer, like

RE: [Repeater-Builder] isolation

: [Repeater-Builder] isolation Eric, You may have missed the point. While your program calculated a necessary isolation amount of 99.65 dB, using a GE M2 PLL exciter would dictate 77.65 dB of necessary isolation - which is easily obtainable with a quality 4 cavity (okay, 4 large cavity) duplexer

You were probably looking at the link below: http://www.repeater-builder.com/antenna/separation.html Vertically, for 50 dB of isolation is roughly 100' at 40 Mhz per the sheet. Horizontally, it's 800' for 50 dB, 2500' for 60 dB and 8000' for 70 dB of isolation at 50 MHz per the sheet. Classic
