Speaking of ht-750's and such... I hAve a CDM-1250 that will not turn on. It seems to be a common problem. most of my customers solve it by replacing the radio with a new kenwood tk-7160 for just a little more than what the Motorola depo charges to fix what I belive is a factory defect. Great radio,except for that little issue and the programming software. I also have a pair of HT-1250 portables. They are lo-band. They will not turn on either. I have not spent any time to trouble shoot yet, but I suspect simular problem. Any thoughts? 73 de N5NPO

The MTR2000 is already rated for continuous duty, in all bands and power settings. I first became aware of its durability when I found a Union Pacific Railroad repeater in Opticom service that was running key-down, 24/7/365, for over two years. Whether that operation is legal or not, is irrelevant to this discussion. I now have seven MTR2000 repeaters in service, both VHF and UHF, with no down time. Please, don't opine about the MTR2000's capability until you have a working knowledge of its durability in severe service at high duty cycles. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> ] On Behalf Of rahwayflynn Sent: Saturday, July 04, 2009 5:34 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Motorola Mototrbo Repeaters Linked --- In [email protected] <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> , w...@... wrote: > > I do believe that Mototrbo is 6.25 compliant because of the two voice > channels in a 12.5kHz slot. > Glenn The Mototrbo upgrade for the MTR2000 station is also 100% duty cycle CCS (at reduced power from what I understand) Martin
