Nate, A local, in Tampa, FL, high profile repeater has a similar problem. They are on 2 meters along side a 800 MHz repeater which gives them interference. They have to live with it. However, it is weak and they PL'd their repeater. Since weak the users can over ride and the PL only allows the users to bring up the machine.
As so many of us Hams do, getting on sites for free, we have to put up with some problems. Of course it does depend on the survarity of the problem. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: Nate Bargmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: 2007/07/26 Thu PM 01:09:56 CDT >To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com >Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Coax length between added cavity and duplexer > >* Steve S.
