[Repeater-Builder] Outdoor Pole or Wall Repeater Cabinet - Weather Resistant
Our Club (www.CNYARA.com)is in need of a weather resistant Repeater Cabinet that will house our 2-Meter Repeater, to include all of the equipment necessary (Duplexers, Power Supply, etc) to operate. We currently have a nice interior cabinet, however it has been determined that it is in our best interest to move the Repeater outside of the structure. We are mounting on a Farm Silo the grain creates an acetic atmosphere that plays hell on electronics. I looked these cabinets up commercially and on eBay and they are extremely expensive. Any idea's? 73, Tony, KG2BV kg...@yahoo.com

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Question about antenna separation
James, This is a gray area, where there are no pat answers. That said, my CommShop for Windows program calculated that 95 dB of isolation is needed for zero desense, and that can be achieved with 317 feet of vertical separation. This is a ballpark figure, since many assumptions are made in the program, some of which may skew the results considerably. As always, YMMV... 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:repeater-buil...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of James Adkins Sent: Friday, March 26, 2010 8:54 PM To: repeater-builder Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Question about antenna seperation We are considering installing a 2-meter repeater, standard 600 kHz spacing, with separate antennas for transmit and receive, looking at phasing together 2 DB-228's for RX and 2 DB-228's for TX and using a high-power transmitter, such as a Motorola Nucleus at 250-300w or other high-power transmitter. Does anyone have a formula or know what formula would need to be used to determine the amount of vertical separation needed to provide the isolation required for such a duplex operation?

[Repeater-Builder] TAIT T807 power supply repair
Hi all! I'm trying to repair a TAIT T807 power supply. The T4 transformer (115/230V to 18V) was damaged during transport. I had one custom-made, but without the 115V winding. I installed it and along with it replaced C37 which looked ... defective. Now the power supply goes into stand-by mode (red LED comes up), but when I press the power button the red led goes off, the green one doesn't come on and there's no voltage on the output. Most of the Initial checks described in the manual turned out ok. I also checked most of the diodes and large resistors which also were ok. The only problem I found was R49 which was open, but that's used when the mains supply is 115V. Does this also affect operation with 230V? In the manual under Common faults section, the possible cause provided for this is defective switching circuitry. Any ideas for what I should check to identify the problem? thanks, Andreas - 5B8AP

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Are people on ebay nuts?
Ebay is like any other retail buying process, some people pay to much some get
great deals.
There is also Cragslist, QRZ, the ARRL ads Radioreference
Uninformed buyers and sellers get what they deserve. I use Ebay a lot and
bcause I am careful and research things I do not get stuck
I also sell at market or below market. I have a UHF 5 watt with duplexor
repeater for $99 currenlty listed. It works if someone puts another $100 in it
for Xtals fro GMRS or amatuer and alignment it is a great little low power unit.
Not sure why these rants get started but if you do not like what you see just
click past it

[Repeater-Builder] Anyone familiar with this NPC 243 ID'er?
I picked up what appears to be a bunch of base station / Repeater ID'ers. I have no other clue as to anything else that they might be. They're an NPC model 243 - I haven't found anything on the web about them. They are a circuit board mounted in a small box (6-1/2 X 5-3/4), which is a little smaller than an S-COM 5K, 6K, or similar box, and the box is mounted to a 19 wide rack panel that is 1-3/4 high. The circuit board has four-Mitsubishi PROMs - with cover labels over the windows, and they've been marked as 1, 2, 3, and 800 Hz. The PROMs labeled 1, 2, and 3 are 28-pin ICs marked MSL2764K and also have numbers that appear to be 82 and 83 date codes. The 4th PROM labeled 800 Hz is a 24-pin MSL2732K IC with an 83 date code. The circuit board has a connector with a ribbon cable that goes to an 18-pin terminal strip on the back of the box. The front of the rack panel has a small opening for a small circuit-board-mounted speaker, a front-panel hole for a screwdriver adjusted AUDIO ADJ. pot that's on the circuit board, a green ON LED, and a TEST push button. There are two - seven position and one - five position DIP switches on the circuit board, as well as several movable 2-pin jumpers. I see several other things on the circuit board like a 3-terminal voltage regulator IC, an LM380N IC, and about a dozen other 14 and 16-pin ICs. Anyone familiar with these units?

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Outdoor Pole or Wall Repeater Cabinet - Weather Resistant
When I worked in the paging business we had a couple of outdoor Motorola cabinets that worked OK. Maybe you can find one from someone still in the business. I've got one in the garage, but I want it. The other thought would be to stay inside the shelter and connect an outdoor source of air to a sealed cabinet. Kind of a clothes dryer vent in reverse. That way you can bring in fresh air and pressurize the cabinet to keep the acidic air out of the cabinet. 73, Joe, K1ike On 3/27/2010 8:55 AM, kg2bv wrote: Our Club (www.CNYARA.com)is in need of a weather resistant Repeater Cabinet that will house our 2-Meter Repeater, to include all of the equipment necessary (Duplexers, Power Supply, etc) to operate.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Are people on ebay nuts?
Not really a rant but more of a joke. I found it to be out right funny. But, I have a GR300 I will sell you for 2500 bucks? ;) (besides the tech stuff was hurting my head.) Not sure why these rants get started but if you do not like what you see just click past it
Re: [Repeater-Builder] Outdoor Pole or Wall Repeater Cabinet - Weather Resistant
Try your local DOT. Look for a used traffic control box. The kind you see sitting on the corner of an intersection. Usually when they redo intersections they put in new and discard the old. You may need a second one for the duplexors but that's not usually a bad thing Rov Sent by Good Messaging (www.good.com) -Original Message- From: Joe [mailto:k1ike_m...@snet.net] Sent: Saturday, March 27, 2010 06:59 PM Eastern Standard Time To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject:Re: [Repeater-Builder] Outdoor Pole or Wall Repeater Cabinet - Weather Resistant When I worked in the paging business we had a couple of outdoor Motorola cabinets that worked OK.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: NOS GE Phoenix For Sale
I think the 200 was 16 channels with an option for 32 channels. While I'm typing, does anyone have a source for a replacement Whelen microphone element? I can't justify $150 for one from Whelen. Even a source for a good used Whelen mic would be welcome. And sorry about the off-topic post relative to the subject. Please direct any replies to my email address rather than the list.
