Hi all - just acquired a Micor Unified Chassis repeater (VHF High
band) and am in the process of checking it out and trying to get tuned
to 2 meters (147.78/18). So far it looks like it has a problem with
the PA and it also does not look like the PA is wanting to tune down
to 2 meters. It is a 100 watt Intermittent Duty PA (yeah, I know - I
should have got the numbers off of it..), Looks like the repeater is
about 1984 vintage from the dates I'm seeing. I have the control
shelf manual but have not been able to find the RF deck manual yet.
Anyone have any Micor schematics? I'll get the numbers off the deck
tomorrow. This PA looks like it is off of some sort of mobile, but
not a Micor (it is the original deck). Only two tuning caps in the
whole deck and they max out before they peak. It was putting out 78
watts flat out on the 155 TX frequency before I started - I'm betting
one of the 4 finals is dead. Anyone have any experience with
something like this? I haven't started on the the receiver yet. Any
help or guidance on this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance -
Dan WB0SHN.
