Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater heard on Aviation Channel! HELP
Comments mixed into the text below... Mike WA6ILQ At 07:58 PM 7/5/05, you wrote: Mathew, The Maggiore EV-1 is a very basic, crystal-controlled exciter that has none of the filters, power control, or SWR protection features of commercial units. I have one that I took off the air because of its tendency to produce spurs. It is perhaps not a good idea to use a relatively unstable exciter to feed a 200 watt (!) power amplifier, which itself may not have all of the controls and protections of a commercial amplifier. I've never heard of Vocom, so I don't know where it falls in the quality lineup. I find it interesting that the fundamental frequency of your exciter, 12.1175 MHz, when mixed with your output frequency of 145.410 MHz, produces a product at 133.2925 MHz. This product is in the aviation band and could be slope-detected with ease by an AM aircraft radio on a nearby frequency. I'm not suggesting that this is the cause, but it's a coincidence. Having a look at 157.5275, which is 12.1175 above his output would be interesting. If there is a spur there, it would be indicative of the 133mhz spur being produced by the same mechanism. Matt, I'd grab a scanner that had a AM aircraft mode and program up the 133mhz channel and then rock each exciter adjustment and see if anything affects it. I've seen spurs come and go with a 1/32 turn tweak of a slug that was a 1/4 turn wide peak on a meter-type test set. A bit of FM history (and yes, bear with me, it is relevant) The local 146.22 / 82 repeater here in Los Angeles is W6FNO, and is a very wide area system... it started out about 40 years ago as a single system at a 3,800' northeast of downtown LA and later added an 8,000' site with the original site used as a fill-in on the simulcast TX and voting RX system. Over 30 years ago, when Standard introduced the first japanese mobile radios to the USA, the model 806 and 826, some of the users of the 146.82 system were being heard by the Torrance (one of the 86 communities that make up Los Angeles county) police department dispatcher. Fortunately, the Torrance radio tech was a user of the 82 system... it seemed that almost every 82 user that were being heard by the Torrance dispatcher had a brand-new Standard... A bit of math showed where the problem was... the Standard design used an 8mhz crystal times 18, and the first stage was an oscillator-tripler (base circuit at 8mhz, collector at 24mhz) 146.220 / 18 = 8.12 crystal fundamental 8.12 times 19 = 154.34, and guess where Torrance PD was... The simple cure was to take the 8mhz rocks and trash them and insert a 12mhz rocks. The oscillator-tripler automagically became an oscillator-doubler when a 12mhz rock was selected. The deviation in the Standard was created by a phase modulator and while the dev was slightly reduced when running 12mhz vs 8mhz it was not noticeable. An agreement was worked out between Torrance and Standard, and Standard provided the Torrance dispatcher with a Callbook and a stack of prepaid postcards. When the dispatcher heard a ham, they'd look up the call, and send a postcard, which read (something like) Your radio was heard on Torrance PD dispatch frequencies. Standard is aware of the problem and has arranged for a free fix. Please contact (name of local popular 2-way shop #1) at (phone number) or (name of local 2-way shop #2) at (phone number). Present this card to either shop and they will fix the problem at no charge to you, and tune your radio as well. The shop basically swapped the 146.22 rock and one other local channel that was a potential problem, adjusted TX and RX frequency, and set deviation. Standard provided the crystals and paid for an hour of bench time per radio the shop stapled the postcards to an invoice to Standard and they paid the bill, no questions asked. Now Matts radio already is using 12mhz rocks so this fix technique is not applicable UNLESS the first stage is an oscillator-multiplier. You might check to see that the box containing the exciter is tightly shielded and its power and audio leads are properly bypassed. If the exciter is in a box or shield of any kind... if not, maybe it's time to box it up with a set of good quality feed through caps. The Standard fix mentioned above took advantage of the lucky design quirk that allowed a simple plug-in crystal swap to eliminate the spur. The real fix would have been adding more shielding and a bypass cap or three. This typical cheap design, plus the name of the current- production Motorola radio of the time, the Motrac, is were the (no longer politically correct) derogatory term japtrac came from. Check to see that all connectors are clean and tight. Use a spectrum analyzer to see if your PA is generating spurs. Try running without the PA, or use a different and lower- powered PA for comparison. Make sure all the shields are in place. If your radio came to you as a used radio, you might want to make sure that there

[Repeater-Builder] Repeater heard on Aviation Channel! HELP
Ok, something new has been discovered this morning, while going back to the repeater for further testing. I turned on the SM to get ready to check a few things, while set to 132.950 the squelch on the SM was open I could hear a pulsing noise. I then went to the output of the repeater, I could hear the same thing. This same noise has been heard on the output of the repeater on certain radios, kind of sounds like a warbly sound, led to always believe it was the audio delay board, so I ignored it, non of the users ever commented on it. The repeater was not transmitting at the time. I reached in an unplugged the delay board and noise is still there. I powered down the transmitter, no changes, I powered down the Mastr Pro receiver, noise still there, only thing left was the cat controller, powered it down and noise is gone. This noise was heard over a large frequency spread in the aircraft band on the SM. Could it be possible that the controller could be the cause sending havac out the band. Mathew Yahoo!

This noise was heard over a large frequency spread in the aircraft band on the SM. Could it be possible that the controller could be the cause sending havac out the band. If it's radiating enough to get out any distance, there's something SERIOUSLY wrong with it. I'd consider this possible, but unlikely. It might make it into your receiver though, if the CPU clock has the right harmonics. Those oscillators are nowhere near the stability of the ones that we use for RF either, they will be FM'd by load, and what the processor is doing at the moment.. You can probably alter the xtal frequency just a bit, enough to get out of your receiver, but not enough to bother anything else, by changing one of the two caps that will be located very close to the crystal. 10-30pF normal value range. MFJ had this in one or more of their TNCs, for the same problem. 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 MHz are all popular uP clocks, and all have harmonics that end up on the bottom end of the 2M band. In the case of 1 and 2M, the harmonics would be at 144, 146, 148, and 144, 145, 146, 147, 148-ish, but I doubt the 1MHz rock would have harmonics up that high. Yahoo!

The FCc sent sitations to 5 users who ID'd. I would listen on the aviation freq close to your site to determine if you are emitting a spur just to make sure.

12.46 is the difference if it's a mix.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] 6 M Gain Antenna
Hi guys With all this talk about 6m antennas, can I mention that I have a pair of Sinclair SRL-110 dipoles to dispose of. They were used in a commercial system at 48/49 MHz. I have not tested them at 52/53 MHz but the SRL-x10 series antennas are usually quite broadband. The catch is that they are large and I don't want to ship them anywhere.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: 6 M gain antenna
Walter, See if you can find a local two-way shop with an old low band antenna laying around. I found a two bay, 43 mhz unit for free. The 30 to 50 mhz band is being abandoned by many users for cell phones and 800 mhz stuff. Often the shops can't give away the equipment and have to pay to have it disposed of. Their loss can be hams gain. The folded dipoles I got had telescoping sections swaged together. I sawed the end pieces off just after the junction. then sawed off the part where the joint was. After cleaning up the cut off u shaped with fine sand paper I cut a couple of slots in the larger section of the antenna about an inch deep. The u slipped in and a stainless hose clamp was put on over the slots. Tuning was pretty easy, but tedious, with an SWR bridge. (with the new dipole side mounted on a tower a few feet off the ground) Once tuned the clamps were tightened. Maybe should have used two clamps each place but didn't. With the new antenna analyzers it would have been a much quicker tune up. A phasing harness was built from RG-11 per any decent antenna book's formulae. The two dipoles take almost thirty feet of tower side and should approach 3 dbd (5.14 dbi) gain, plus a certain amount of diversity reception because of their difference in height.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater heard on Aviation Channel! HELP
Hi Matthew, I powered down the Mastr Pro receiver, noise still there,only thing left was the cat controller, powered it down and noise isgone. This noise was heard over a large frequency spread in theaircraft band on the SM. Could it be possible that the controllercould be the cause sending havac out the band. Yes! RF created by the digital circuits in the controllercanhitch a ride on your PTT andaudio lines, where it getsinjectedintoan early stage in yourtransmitter.The noiseis multiplied (along with the desirable signal), amplified, andspewed out all over the spectrum.

[Repeater-Builder] 6 meter repeater interference
Hello to All, I just got a new neighbor at my 6 meter repeater site, a low power (30 watt) FM broadcast station on 94.9MHZ. I now have low level interference on my MastrII repeater input frequency. As a simple troubleshooting tool, I thought about putting a low pass filter on the receiver or the antenna connection to the duplexer. This would attenuate any 94.9Mhz signal coming down the coax. My thoughts are to take the low pass filter out of a MastrII PA, but I don't know what the input impeadance to it is. Does anyone know if the final PA of a MasterII is 50 ohms into the low pass filter? I belive that it is, but not sure. 73, Joe, k1ike Yahoo!

One thing to think about. 145.41/12 = 12.1175 MHz 12.1175 x 11 = 133.2925 MHz It could be related to this as it is harmonic of the fundamental crystal freq. A low pass filter would not take this out.

[Repeater-Builder] Rx filter and shinwa radio prog help please
Hi learned friends. I have a few Qs that you may be able to help with. One: Can a very good notch filter be made from coax stub as I need to make one for each of the Aust cb chs approx 500 kHz spacings for a portable repeater. I am going to use a TX and an Rx feeder so I will not need a duplexer for each of the 8 repeater chs. The idea is to add the stub to the Rx feeder as needed. I will be using double shielded coax or may be some 1/2 hardline. Two: I am looking for info on programming Shinwa 504g and 505g uhf and vhf Hand Helds. Three: FS or trade brand new HP aurora Tempo. I purchased it because I was told I needed it to comply with a overseas contract and as I fund out later that was a lot B.S. Thanks Brett Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] 6 meter repeater interference
Joe, Because the separation (about 45 MHz) is significant, you might consider installing a cavity filter on your receiver input. A less expensive solution might be to order up a helical resonator filter from DCI. Don't forget that the FM station operator has an obligation to not interfere with other licensed stations, so he/she must step up to the plate and be a part of the solution. Write a letter to the station manager explaining the interference problem, and ask for his/her assistance in reaching a solution. Don't wait to do this! 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY Joe wrote: I just got a new neighbor at my 6 meter repeater site, a low power (30 watt) FM broadcast station on 94.9 MHz.

Check out http://clarkconnect.com they offer a free firewall, router, web server, ftp server, mail server and Samba file server package running under Redhat Fedora Core 2. The is a GUI that makes it very easy to setup. I have been running a Clarconnect Box for over a year and am very happy with it. The main thing that makes it very nice you do not have to have a static ip address on the Internet as Clackconnect will track and IP changes from you ISP! All DNS entries can be made by the user with the GUI. You do not have to wait for your ISP to get around to adding any information you might send him! As for the computer. I am running on a Pentium II 350m with 256m RAM and a 4g HD! So any old machine you can pick up will work. All that is required is a registered domain name and that can be done through Clarkconnect.

[Repeater-Builder] Thinking about a whole new repeater
I'm looking for something to replace this repeater. I'm not sure if it is the Vocom Amp, Antenna, Exciter or just plain messed up. I'm told the GE Mastr II's are easy to convert. How true is this. Does any one have one lying around. Or who has what available. Must be price competative, as I've spent more than I should have. I've been through this repeater a dozen times today, thought I had it cured, but then it starts back up with interference on 132.950, then I find if I goto 133.300 I can hear the repeater just as if it were on that frequency. So I am at a lost here. It's like it is riding along something, every so often it gets bad, but then it disappears and is gone for awhile. Mathew Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Thinking about a whole new repeater (spurs)
I had several problems with my maggiore exciter on 220, and others I have gotten to work on that were on 144. Have you tried running another radio into the amp and see if it is there?? Have you tried listening on a different radio to see if more than one unit see the spur?? Have you tried running the repeater barefoot (no amp) and see what you get?? Have you tried a different exciter without the amp?? If you still get the spur, replacing the repeater will not help you. I would suggest that you try a circulator on the output of the amp into a good set of band pass / band reject type cavities. If that does not work, I would not be looking at your repeater, but maybe a mix in someone elses PA, or maybe something else around the site. I have been through this kind of thing before, but it was part 15 devices causing my problems. James Mathew Quaife wrote: I'm looking for something to replace this repeater.
