Hi Cathy,

Just to further supplement my previous email. The overall performance in 144 Mhz will quite depend on the performance of your IF rig i.e. HR2600.

In other words, it is impractical to think that XV144 will give you exceptional performance in 144 Mhx if your IF rig is not a good performer.

From the price tag of XV144, you will note that XV144 is intended to be
used with high quality station rig for demanding weak signal operation in heavy QRM conditions.

So, IMHO, think about your operation preference before go ahead for the XV144.

Subject: [Elecraft] XV144 paired with Uniden HR-2600?
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2006 19:40:34 -0500


Folks,

I am interested in building the XV144 transverter. However, I do not want to tie up the K2 as the IF. Instead, I have a Uniden HR-2600 (unmodified) lying around that I'd like to use for the IF/tuner/etc.

Has anyone out there used the 2600 or 2510 as the IF for the XV144? How difficult is it to do this? Reading thru the XV144 manual with regard to separate TX/RX cables, PTT cables to trigger the XV, blah blah, makes me a bit nervous. Am I going to have to modify the Uniden?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cathy
