I don't remember if it was the Pulsar 120 or not but I did indeed build a repeater in the late 70's, based on a Pulsar. One channel element (square "copper" as I remember) and a 5 mHz 1st IF made it a piece of cake. It worked surprisingly well for what it was. As this was in SoCal where UHF splits are upside down (low in, high out ham repeaters), the Pulsar was a natural.
The biggest problem was that it used germanium RF devices. Fortunately for us, there was a MSS nearby to keep us stocked in those devices (which was needed!).
