I have retuned 10+ GE Mastr II exciters - base/moble and have never had to change a component. Put the ICOM in for the new frequency and tune per the manual.
I use a Bird milliWatt meter that has a 250 mW full scale and an internal 50 Ohm load to finish the tuning, after going through the test points with a Simpson 260. Peaking the previous stage and dipping for the input to the next stage as per the tuning instructions will give you a working exciter as long as there is no component issue in the exciter. 73 - Jim W5ZIT --- On Sun, 3/22/09, Morris Dillingham <[email protected]> wrote: From: Morris Dillingham <[email protected]> Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Master II station 66 split conversion to 56 split To: [email protected] Date: Sunday, March 22, 2009, 2:20 PM Now that you have helped me close out the old Spectrum issues, can anyone point me to the list of caps and their new values to convert the exciter board of a Master II station? On the NHRC site I see mention of the need to change out a dozen or so caps but no other references. 73 de Morris KI4IUA
