Chuck,
   Our current repeater is a Yaesu Musen FTR-5410. It is now working
pretty well after having the duplexer tuned, after changing the cables
to RG-400, and after taking out of line a preamp. 
   The repeater works better without the preamp than with it. On the
bench the preamp provides +11 dB. When on the repeater it reduces
sensitivity by about 2 dB.
   The club thinks a new repeater would perform better. I don't know
whether it will or not. 
John
