It only says K-1. Goes from 146.000 to 174.000 or something near that. I am confused at what the manual calls firmware. Is that like bios in a computer or does it also take in programming the channels. Also the manual talks about holding PF1 while turning on the repeater to put it in programming mode. If I do that, then I can’t get the software to work. If I just turn on the computer without holding anything, then the software will work. Then there is also reference to K,E. Is E just another model? Anyway, what do I need to do to get the test points up to 8 volts? About 5 is the highest I can get. The repeater was originally on a frequency in the high 150’s.

The K and the K2 overlap coverage from 146 to 150mhz. From what I understand the RX pre-select really determines freq coverage on those models. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> <[email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> > To: [email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> <[email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> > Sent: Tue Apr 07 12:57:47 2009 Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] TKR-750 At 10:18 AM 4/7/2009, Randy Brumback wrote: >I need to tune the VCO for my amateur frequency in the TKR-750.
