Re: [Repeater-Builder] Id'ing receiver links

[Ellen Engle]

Same as any amateur radio requirement, AFIK the rules are the same for any usage, FM,SSB,ATV,etc.  And why waste the power and bandwidth having a constantly keyed link?  Put the Spectra-Tac encoder on the output of the link RX at the hub site.  Wire the outputs to the respective SQM's in the voting selector.  Use the voted audio to feed the RX input of the controller.  The COS can also be derived from the voting selector.    At the remote site do a simple COR keying of the link TX radio from the remote RX.  If you want to verify link connectivity add a timer to the link TX that periodically keys the link with a CTCSS tone.  At the other end decode the CTCSS and have the output trigger a retriggerable timer.  Set the TX timer slightly shorter than the RX timer.  If the RX timer is retriggered by the decoded CTCSS tone nothing happens, if not set an alarm for the link in question.        Milt N3LTQ   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, November 24, 2005 11:00 AM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Id'ing receiver links Hi, Just wondered if anyone knew the requirements for id'ing rf links? These will be used with SpectraTac and will be constantly keyed. Thanks, Glenn No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
