Well I did find some stuff on it, but as I mentioned, duplexers and the cavities are all new to me, as I have never done them myself, as the set I have on the 2 meter repeater was tuned for me when I bought them, and the 440 was done better than 15 yrs ago. But that is what I thought, but from reading the information on the duplexers, as in RX kills TX and vica-versa, thought I had better ask. Thanks for the help.
