Repeater operation should require a Squelch Gate, Station Control and hopefully a Time Out Timer module.
Base Station requires a line driver, and control module(s), depending on dc or tone control. The Line Driver can be found in full or half duplex 2/4 wire options. Jumpers need to be setup on the Modules and Backplane. Moving high range strips down can be a pain, better to swap into low range if you can find them easy enough. Sell me your old high range strips cheap. :-) The PA might operate at 40% rated power without damage, which should be checked before trusting my or anyone else's word. The mitrek is often considered the mobile version of the MSR, they have a similar line of construction and some parts do interchange. Another less known radio was the Motrek, a mitrek someone kept pulling parts out of until it stopped working, then put the last part back in and shipped it out for sale. The Motrek and Mitrek strips will not interchange with the MSR-2000 strips. If you wish to revist the Sensicon, G strips or Research Line, I just found a batch in a storage tub. Cousins to the GE Pre-Prog and other pre-motrac back breakers. cheers skipp025 at yahoo.com > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hey guys, > I need some guidance from someone familiar with the MSR-2000 VHF > station.
