Re: [Repeater-Builder] Zetron model 48 controller
Those pointers to the data / spec sheet for the 48MAX. He may have the 48 (plain) model, or even the 48JR model. Unfortunately the repeater-builder web site has only the data sheets on several Zetron units, including the 48, the 48JR and the 48MAX. If anyone has any of the missing PDFs please consider sending them in so everyone can benefit.

[Repeater-Builder] db408 and db224 together
Anyone tried mounting both of these on one mast before? Would like to close the spacing down on the db224, but not sure how much (and I am sure it will) it would effect the tuning of the antenna. How about half of a db224 and a db408 on one mast. Half of a db304 is hard to find ;-) Thanks, Robert
Re: [Repeater-Builder] db408 and db224 together
Robert, I have a DB-224 with a DB-? (four bays high with opposed dipoles at each bay) 440 antenna operating on the same mast, and have had good results. I first tried it with a diplexer up at the antenna and a single feedline, but had problems with that set up. When I went to separate feedlines I had much better results. I had a two meter and a 440 repeater on the antennas, and later had a 440 repeater with a 2 meter remote base. The usual problems with harmonics of the 2 meter remote base getting into the 440 repeater occur, but that would be a problem anyway. The DB-224 is spaced normal, and the 440 antenna is at the top part of the mast. 73 - Jim W5ZIT georgiaskywarn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone tried mounting both of these on one mast before?

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Wilson PSC-1422 Power Supply
Re: Wilson Regency UHF Repeaters Per another post I saw here... Regency, Wilson and a few other brands do have a history of being under the same umbrella. Some of their products are the same but branded under various names. I have at least a partial service manual for the similar Regency Micro Com UHF Repeater available for free download off the www.radiowrench.com/sonic web page. I don't think the power supply section is included but I would post/supply it if someone sent me a copy. cheers, skipp
[Repeater-Builder] Re: Zetron model 48 controller
I have a complete cd manual and programming info, wiring diagrams, etc, for the 48jr
[Repeater-Builder] Re: db408 and db224 together
That is interesting Jim. Had a friend of mine mention toying with the exact setup as you described. What problems did you run into with the diplexer? Really don't think we will be able to run a second line. Also curious as to what size tower you were on. This is going on a Rohn SSV (I think that is it. Pretty big tripod type of free standing tower). Curious how far out from the tower it was. Thanks!

I do have the alignment procedure and specifications for that duplexer.
[Repeater-Builder] Re: Zetron model 48 controller
Not a white elephant. It is programmable via RS232, local phone, dial-in, or over the air. No eproms to program. I can get a manual for it. It will take me a few days to get it into my hands and copy or scan it.

[Repeater-Builder] GE MVP repeater on 6 meters
Has anyone successfully got a GE MVP to repeat on 6 meters, 1Mhz split? I know that they work well on 440Mhz but never heard of one used on 6 meters. 73, Joe, K1ike

Joe, I haven't done the MVP, but have converted the Exec II for a 1 MHz split 6 mtr rptr. Basically the same radio in trunk mount version with a bigger PA.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: db408 and db224 together
My tower is Rhon 45 and is 60 ft tall with the DB mast mounted directly to the top of the tower and the elements of the 224 above the tower. My diplexer did not give enough isolation between the two antennas, and I thought at first it was the direct coupling between them, but running two feedlines made things work OK. I did try running both the two meter and the 440 repeaters on the two meter antenna, and it worked pretty well, but the 440 worked better with the two antennas. The DB-224 has a pretty good SWR on 440, but the pattern is pretty squirrely. This has been discused on this list before. 73 - Jim W5ZIT georgiaskywarn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: That is interesting Jim. Had a friend of mine mention toying with the exact setup as you described.
