A 5 watt signal is +37 dBm.  *Typical* transmitter sideband noise with a 
good radio set is likely -90 to -100 dB below the carrier at 2.5 mHz 
spacing.  Many receivers intended for repeater service will hear a signal 
at -125 dBm. +37 minus 90 is negative 53 dBm.  Now take -125 and subtract 
-53, and the duplexer will have to provide 62 to 72 dB of isolation.
    

That sounds right.  Still significantly lower than what's required for 600 
kHz spacing.

  
  Now, use a PLL exciter and your right at that -40 number for both.

Interesting.  I know about PLL exciters for Mastr IIs but never seen one 
for an MVP; do they exist?

They do not.  One from a Mastr II would have to be scabbed in, and there may not be enough room.
