HI Jim,
Thanks for the response, I was using the port on the 4304 to inject
the signal from the service monitor. The cables in the duplexer are
1/4 super flex.
Nope your are not preaching to the choir. This is my first time
trying to trouble shoot a repeater system. So I know that there are
some subtleties that come with experience. Besides sometimes its the
obvious things that trip us up.
Regards,
Rick

to use an iso-tee to measure desense with the duplexer hooked to a

monitor to contribute to some signal reflection if it is used as the
power termination.

RG-214, and inspect the connectors to make sure all the grounds are in
