Sounds like an issue with keyed A- This is also what happens when the power
control circuit is active. Make sure you have the power going to the control
connector on the back plane. For a quick test you can put 12vdc on the
control terminal if the PA comes up, then check out your power control
system and or RF path. Remember it shuts down the PA to protect it.

Best bet is look in the station manual and follow the trouble flow chart.

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Micor


I'm buffalo'd  (not unusual for me).  Got a UHF (462 mhz) unified
micor...was working fine a couple of weeks ago...it's just been
siting in my office unplugged.  I finally got around to tuning the
duplexer today and when I connected everything back up...nuttin.  I
can't key up using the station control switch.  When bypassing the
PA, and hooked the exciter (low level amp out) to the watt meter (5w
slug), there is no reading when the station is keyed, turned on or
off, or when I key it up with my hand held.  On my service monitor,
I can pass the pl tone to the repeater and hear it through my
handheld on the repeater output freq.  There is no external
controller on this by the way.  I plugged in the test set and here
are the readings...

switch 1...0
switch 2...26
switch 3...36
switch 4...32
switch 5...starts out at 10 when the unit is cold and then drops to 4


Again, when the unit is keyed, nothing changes.  My hand held picks
up a signal also when the unit is just sitting there.  If I key my
handheld, I can hear a squelch tail.  The exciter gets fairly warm
too.  Any ideas?

Thanks
