Although the Clegg and Midland 13-509 radio mod to repeater convertion works ok, the receiver is fairly marginal for most busy repeater applications. You'd do much better to buy a receiver designed for actual repeater operation.
I like the preformance and output functions of the Spectrum 220MHz (and 145/440 bands) Receiver, but they appear to be a "dys-functional business". If you could get a receiver from Spectrum without being taken for a "Mr Toads Wild Ride" (Disney Land theme park ride), I'd say their equipment is worth at least looking at. I bought and enjoy the operation of a new Maggiore 220 receiver, which also works pretty well. They also come high on the list of good 220 MHz receivers. cheers, skipp www.radiowrench.com/sonic > "Jim B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > w8qpo wrote: > > > hello, > > anybody have details of converting midland 13-509 220mhz radio to > > repeater?
