The following response was posted yesterday morning. Perhaps it did not make it through cyberspace. Note that the CDR700 repeater is identical to the GR500, except that it uses CDM radios.
You don't need to adjust anything on the receive radio. However, on the transmit radio, the CDR700 service manual suggests setting the "Accessory Mic Gain" to 31.5 or 33.0 dB. Further adjustment will be made in the controller. All of the setup details are in the CDR700 service manual 6864110R66, available from Motorola Parts (800-422-4210) for about $15. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Saviour Otsemobor Sent: Friday, May 15, 2009 4:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Using the motorola cdm1250 radio for Repeater setup. what level should the mic ? Hello Group, I am on the verge of setting up a Motorola GR500 repeater using the Motorola CDM1250 radios. My question is, what level should the microphone gain level be set to, on the receiver radio? For I have seen in some radios their default setting is usually 27.0 and 28.5 dB. I all appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance. Regards, Savy
