 The Heliax duplexer works great with a 1 mhz Split... but I think he is 
Running a 500Khz split
  He will need  either a higher Q type can  Or more than 6 Heliax's for 
the isolation

Hi
can anyone recommend a cheapish 6mtr duplexer, not a home
made heliax one. Tx freq is 50.750 Rx 51.250
I did play with a heliax one and it was a lot of trouble, going off tune, 
causing desense etc,etc. Big problem is Iam in the UK
and prices are very expensive, around 900 UK pounds.

 We have a repeater given to our club. It is more or less in working
 condition on the 2 meter band. Trouble is there is no controller or
 id-er, etc.

 I've been told it is a Compa-Station but I haven't been able to

It's a Motorola Micor, Non-Unified Chassis Station, VHF High-Band.

If you aren't planning on using the Squelch Gate module and you are
going to use a repeater controller, the conversion of it is similar to
the one outlined for the Unified Chassis on my Micor Index of RBTIP,
However, here are some notes for the Non-Unified Chassis:

For TX:
Pin 15 of the exciter (T1 select) goes to pin 16 in the ribbon cable.
 This ultimately goes to the Remote Control Chassis (backplane board)
to pin 14 on the DC Transfer Module contact pins.  Grounding this pin
with a jumper will allow F1 to work.  Alternately, if keyed F1 is
desired
for the TX element, run a jumper wire from pin 2 of the Station Control
backplane pin to pin 14 of the DC Transfer pins.  Note:  The DC
Transfer
module should be pulled out, as the only module needed is the Station
Control Module.

For RX:
Pin 2 of the receiver RF - I-F board (R1 select) goes to pin 21 in the
ribbon cable.  This ultimately goes to the Remote Control Chassis to
pin
21 of the DC transfer module.  Pin 21 of the DC transfer module will
need
grounded at all times for the receiver to work.  No DC Transfer module
is needed.

The rest of the conversion should be *basically*
the same as what is written in the article.  Realize that most if not
all of the signals required to drive a controller can be found at the
backplane where the Squelch Gate Module interfaces.  As the article
suggests, I don't care for the squelch gate module for my applications,
but your situation may be different.


Hope this helps...
Kevin

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Can anyone identify this?

2006-03-18 Thread n . mckie

  Several years ago, I had an installation of the non-unified 
 chassis system installed at my then repeater site.  Since it was 
 wired as a repeater (amateur band) I wanted to be able control 
 it as the FCC requires - so I left the DC transfer module and the 
 line driver cards in the control shelf. 

  The line PTT worked as the factory had wired it.  The remote 
 controlled Private Line Disable latch on the DC transfer module 
 was patched into pin 3 of the Station Control Module (key inhibit)
 to turn off the transmitter when the need arose. 

  Worked for me.

Most of the discussion I've seen for the 6 meter Heliax duplexer has
 been centered around using 1 5/8 Heliax. Has anyone used 3 1/8 stuff?
 Would there be any advantage to using the larger size? I have some
 available.

Has anyone used the foam 1 5/8 instead of air line for a duplexer?

Hi Steve,

The GB3FH repeater in Somerset is using a heliax duplexer and it is truly 
excellent!

If you like I can send you the plots from the analyser that shows the 
performance of the duplexer, they are only small jpegs - don't think I can 
send them to the list as I think it strips attachments.

Also, have a look at the web site www.gb3fh.org.uk for some photos from the 
chap who made our duplexer - he made some mods that make it much easier to 
tune and build

I really need to get one built for me, I don't have the gear or cable etc to
make one. I did ages ago play about with a couple of lenghts of 1 5/8 heliax

Iam testing at present using 2 aerials it works but this is purely

Hi

yes be interested in seeing the spec analyser plots.
I really need to get one built for me, I don't have the gear or cable etc to
make one. I did ages ago play about with a couple of lenghts of 1 5/8 heliax
but it was a failure.
Iam testing at present using 2 aerials it works but this is purely
for tests. I don't mind paying  a fair price

 Hi Steve,

 The GB3FH repeater in Somerset is using a heliax duplexer and it is truly
 excellent!

 If you like I can send you the plots from the analyser that shows the
 performance of the duplexer, they are only small jpegs - don't think I can
 send them to the list as I think it strips attachments.

 Also, have a look at the web site www.gb3fh.org.uk for some photos from
the
 chap who made our duplexer - he made some mods that make it much easier to
 tune and build

You can always use more cans made of heliax.  I've seen some duplexers
made of 1.75 inch heliax and 8 cans.

If it's a true repeater station, I don't think your repeater PA is 
worthless.  Boards for the station for 6m are a dime-a-dozen from 
mobiles, but a real station PA for 6m is not always common to find.  You 
might want to hang onto that to sell.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: 6mtr duplexer

2006-03-18 Thread Mike Perryman K5JMP
I wouldn't say they are worthless..  but 1200 bucks was a little on the
steep side.  I bought 4 complete low-band Micor stations for 30 bucks plus
shipping each.  And they had the continous duty PA's (which is pretty much
what I was paying for, meaning the PA).

Speaking of...  Mike Morris..  do you want one of the chassis'?  Let me
know.. direct please.

I also have a couple of extra power supplys I would let go of pretty cheap
to clear some room in the shack.  I haven't even plugged them in, so I have
no idea what kind of shape the caps are in...   did I mention cheap?

A six can duplexer just sold for a pretty hefty sum, but it was
brand-spankin' new, and the correct banding.

I would try taking offers on the individual pieces...  If you don't get any
reasonable offers you might even try...  lord forgive me...  eBay.  Shipping
the cans will be a nightmare though.

Trading up to a real duplexer from heliax notches would have been nice, but
I am about hip deep in a 900MHz machine now.  Good luck on your endeavors..
