Hi group whats the deal with the GE Master II PA decks needing to use a
ferrite isolator with a 50 ohm dummy load and a low pass filter between
the PA and the High Q duplexer. Is this something that most do with
the 75 and 100 w Pa's We just replaced one in a Master II Mobile radio
which lasted for years with no issues. After installing the PA and
doing a tune up the Radio did about 80 watts we set it to 45 watts I
was also told that was not a good thing to do so whats the story on the
PA. I seen where Repeater Builder the Company talks about the 75 or 100
watt PA's in there web site only bening good set to 45 watts or so
anyway so I assume they are setting theres at that level when they do a
Duplex conversion ect making the radio into a repeater. I have read the
information on the website about this but would like some user comments
as well. Also where would one get the needed parts ect to do this Mod.
