Re: [Repeater-Builder] 220 Mhz. repeater

Hey Kevin, I am not saying it is bad to buy older stuff. Just if you do not have the test equipment or know all the ins and outs you mite be better buying something new with a warn tee. I am real sure your converted stuff works just fine. I see lots of folks come in and out of our shop each day buying parts for all the GE and Motorola stuff but they can fix the older stuff. So yes in the long run a new repeater on 220 is not a bad idea at all. You guys can pick on Russ all you want but he has 26 Maggiore repeater on the air at last count and they all work.  So I think on this one he knows the Maggiore stuff. Let us not forget his wife and father in law has dealerships for the big brand radio's and he can sure buy them at cost. Lord know we have tried to talk him into a few things over the years. Plus he can afford to buy any thing. He buys Maggiore. Why? Because they do not break down! when you have a very large on the air system like his you can't run to it ever. He does not! So you guys who say he has no idea are wrong! On 220 the Maggiore works well. Kevin your Micors I am sure works well. I have even seen the Master II's work well on 220 but if I did not have the test equipment and the know how. I would buy a new repeater. If I needed 220 that really only leaves Maggiore for a good off the shelf repeater that works day in and day out. 73, Dean Westbrook, EE,PE.   Yahoo!
