Can anyone tell me for testing purposes if there is a way to set the 
tones off on a weather radio.  What is the sequence they use to make 
them tone off?

You are right about the folks over at Cook Tower. Dean will talk radio till
the cows come home. Plus it is toll free. Nice folks. But this time you will
want to call Communications Spec. in CA. 800-854-0547
They can hook you up with an incode only unit for under $30.00 I think
$27.00 but don't hold me to the $27.00
As I tell folks around here it is an easy hook up. 3 wires and two are power
smile I like to tie the 3rd one on the dev. pot. But they can tell you at
comm-spec the best place on a lot of radio's just tell them what you have.
If not you can always call Dean or Kathy over at Cook they will install it
for you.big grin.
All kidding aside I hope this is of some help for you.

Very best of 73,

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Question on Motorola encryption

2004-06-07 Thread Coy Hilton
What are you going to use it for? I cant remember but I think that 
the DVP would work through repeaters. As far as DES-XL I don't know. 
I'm versed in DES, as I designed a DES encreption/ decryption modem 
a few years ago for the military. The DES aproach is very likely a 
64 bit serial algorithem with a 128 bit key. You figure out how 
secure it is. I guess you would have to know how the encryption 
is done. I do. Take my word. It's very secure. Enough for the 
military to use.

Actually near the input to the amp under the cover is the exciter power
control circuitfound that after searching the manuals.  Getting 1.45
watts now and driving the amp at 45uA so all is good there, now to figure
out that it's the next driver or the matched drivers that are badpretty
sure it's the second driver in the amp.  Guess time to order a transistor.

For a regular weather RX it's audio consisting of just a 1050hz tone for one
second (i.e. just the tone, no voice or other audio in the background).  The
overly conservative specs call for the encoder to send three seconds to
make sure.

The SAME receivers use a digital data burst and I know of no commonly

Thanks Mike, if the same codes were not put into the weather radio, it
should not require the same codes to be sent is what I am thinking.  I sent
a 1050 Hz tone from the service monitor, that did not open the receiver.
Somewhere in my boxes of junk I should have a plain old weather receiver.
Just have to find it.  Trying to figure out the switching so that I can hook
the weather radio up to my repeater.  It is a Midland Unit.

OK, more info

The PLL? goes into unlock below 450.000Mc.  So that was the subject 
of my question, although I didn't say so.  The preselector is the 
tunable 140-175Mc unit.  As you know, it is switchable to an ultra-
wide mode with no tuning.  So it seems that won't get in the way once 
the frequency selection circuits are happy.  What else might get in 
the way of operating below 450?  There's got to be way, right?  
being optimistic here

2004-06-07 Thread mch
On all the units that I have, they either respond to the 1050 Hz tone,
or SAME, but not both. The SAME units ONLY respond to SAME codes. The
tone units only respond to tone.

This won't help you, but there is a code to program the SAME receivers
with so they will respond to ANY alert, but they still use the SAME data
- they just ignore the FIPS (area) code.

To guess your next question, I am not aware
of any SMs that generate SAME coding.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Cushman CE3

2004-06-07 Thread Coy Hilton
The CE3 should work at 2 meter ham band. I know that it works 
(normaly) in the vhf band and the 450 commertial bands because it is 
what I used for several years before the CE50 and the CE4 came 
alongin our shop.
IF It goes out of lock when you try say, setting it for 155.000 mhz 
there is a problem with yours. I would try and get all info that I 
could find including a service manual. There should be at least one 
company out there that could work on it for you.
It's an OLD BEAST, but I would to have one. The one that I used 
lasted for ever..

What about a singal generator, think that would send them?

Mathew


 On all the units that I have, they either respond to the 1050 Hz tone,
 or SAME, but not both. The SAME units ONLY respond to SAME codes. The
 tone units only respond to tone.

 This won't help you, but there is a code to program the SAME receivers
 with so they will respond to ANY alert, but they still use the SAME data
 - they just ignore the FIPS (area) code.

 To guess your next question, I am not aware
 of any SMs that generate SAME coding.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Question on Motorola encryption

2004-06-07 Thread osborne605


DVP is the lowest level of encryption DES/DVP were the 1st types. They found that there was range problems and the "XL" versions came out. DVP was sold to the general public, DES was only sold to government agencies. Both do not meet the current government standards. A conventional repeater will not pass either you need a "M" repeater setup for digital encryption.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Weather Radios

2004-06-07 Thread mch
You need to send data in the correct format. This is like asking of a SM
(or a SG) can generate packet. No, none that I know of can by
themselves. I'm sure there is a way to use the external modulation port
(if it has one) to inject the SAME datastream onto the signal, but I
don't know of anyone who has such a generator for the datastream.

As was mentioned, try the Wednesday test. In my area, it's between 11:00
and 11:30 AM, but your area may vary. Regardless it should have a test.
BUT, depending on how you are interfacing the unit, and the unit you
have, it may not help. My home unit displays TEST on the screen, and
unmutes the audio for a few minutes, but does not light any of the WATCH
or WARNING lamps.

The 1050 hz tone is the original arert tone that was used
before the SAME system was installed. It is still transmitted
with a duration of 8-10 seconds,is not area specific and will
give a warning for the whole coverage area of the station, sometimes
as much as 5000 square miles.
Generating a SAME tone is not for the faint of heart. It is 
digital and has such oddball parameters as 520.83 bps data rate,
a digital 1 = 2083.3 hz , a digital 0 = 1562.5 hz. For more

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Weather Radios

2004-06-07 Thread KC1RM
When I was playing with SAME weather radios a couple of years back, I
called the local NWS weather office and found out what time they were
going to conduct their test.  I then set up a timer on a cassette recorder to
record the broadcast.

I guess you could use this as the audio source for a service monitor, but
what I did was just inject the audio into the weather radio at the volume
control.  In my case I wasn't going to use the RF section of the weather
radio as it got clobbered by all the RF on the hill I was on.  I think I used
a GE Phoenix as the receiver, and then coupled the audio to the weather
radio so I could use it's SAME detector.  I just injected the audio where
I was going to inject the receive audio.   It worked just fine.

That way you can test and test and test till you get your S.A.M.E. WX
alert system just right without having to wait till Wednesday or the
next storm to roll through.

This also would be way easier than trying to emmulate the actual

get it to have the right baud and tone frequencies. Nothing off the

RE: [Repeater-Builder] East coast system?

2004-06-07 Thread Joe LaGanga
There are a few variables in figuring this out, one is the actual path loss,
which is 65db per mile, output power which is 53dbm, and then the
sensitivity of the receiver on the other end, and most radios are in the
-102 to -107dbm receive sensitivity. So with all this information you can
figure out ground wave or at least get close.

 Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Weather Radios
 
 The 1050 hz tone is the original arert tone that was used
 before the SAME system was installed. It is still transmitted
 with a duration of 8-10 seconds,is not area specific and will
 give a warning for the whole coverage area of the station, sometimes
 as much as 5000 square miles.
 Generating a SAME tone is not for the faint of heart. It is 
 digital and has such oddball parameters as 520.83 bps data rate,
 a digital 1 = 2083.3 hz , a digital 0 = 1562.5 hz. For more 
 than you ever wanted to know about SAME go here:
 http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/same.pdf
 
 Henry, K4HAL

Henry, I don't think it would be all that hard to build a FSK audio
oscillator to work with a 1.92 mS wide mark and space tone (which is
what 520.83 bps translates to) at those frequencies.  The
phase continuity requirement may be a little tricky. though.

FWIW, the SAME code definitions are in the referenced PDF.  The encoder
is even somethng that might be worth writing as a sound card utility,
provided the sound card has the requisite transient response and
stability.

Guess I need to dig up the sound libraries and read the furnished manual
on them.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Weather Radios

2004-06-07 Thread Mike WA6ILQ
Nope - you don't need to be home, and you already have a
long-term recorder in your house right now.

Take your VCR, and set it to record from the external video
and audio jacks.  Stick a tape in it - any tape will give you at
least 2 hours, extended play mode up to 6.  Program the VCR to
record from an hour before to an hour behind.

On one of my machines I had to loop the video from video out
to video in before the unit would record - it apparently needed
the video sync before it would record - even from the audio input.
Strange.

Anyway then dub the important part from the VCR to a cassette
or into your sound card  for archiving.  Then you can play either
over and over and over when you wear out the cassette you
can dub a new one.  And when a storm rolls through you can
put use the VCR recorder again to get more alerts.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Weather Radios

2004-06-07 Thread Q





BUT,the weekly test wont light any LED's if thats 
where you are taking your signal from. Just find the high side of the led and 
send it to a buffer of some kind and then on to the controller input. If you 
want both to trigger one line,"OR" them together.
I was going to upgrade my wx rx,but the receiver in 
my SAME radio wont hear when the repeater is up. They must be making them real 
cheap cause they are wide and deaf!

Point to point link ID requirement:

1) When the link is first brought up and taken down
2) When the link is first brought up and taken down and every 10 minutes of
operation
3) At the end of communications
4) All of the above

The winner receives an atta boy!

Option two is the safest, and when you notch the ID out
at the RX end who's going to hear it anyway?
