Hello group, I am building a large repeater system here in SE Kansas for SkyWarn and I am wanting to use the RVS-8 Voter.
Our system uses Motorola Maxtracs for pretty much every aspect of our giant 15 county coverage repeater. Has anyone successfully used Maxtracs with this Voter? If so, how did you interface them? The voter has room for up to 8 sattelite receivers. I have a bank of UHF Maxtracs all tuned to different frequencies as the link receivers. They are all identical, and have 16 pins on the rear. I had planned to use PIN 8 COR and PIN 11 audio to feed the voter. COR is in ACTIVE HI on the Maxtracs, as such in the voter. The trouble I am having is getting PTT through the voter to be consistant, and by this I mean, only light PTT when there is an incoming COR signal from one receiver. It seems like the COR light on the voter is pulsing all the time, and when a good COR is detected, the COR on the voter goes solid and I can see the SNR counter go up when I talk through it. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks advance, Tyler K0FCQ
