Several of us are looking at putting up a low-power UHF MICOR Repeater at some Solar Power sites. Standby receive power drain, of course, needs to be as low as possible.
I have a copy of a modification that was done to a MASTR II VHF Repeater audio amplifier stage to greatly reduce the standby current, with a switch to re-enable the audio PA for maintenance while at the site. Has anyone ever done something similar for a MICOR receiver? The audio amp stages are quite different between a MICOR and a MASTR II. Thanks, Larry
