[Repeater-Builder] B/R piston trimmer options

2010-06-04 Thread JG
Hi Guys,

with all the data available on the RB page
and the many publications that I can lay my hands on,
I am still looking for the optimum capacitor value
for a UHF duplexer.

Shall I use 1-5 or 1-10 pF for the piston trimmer
attached to the single loop i.e.

(CTP) MVM006 or (CTP) 4335 from surplussales.com

Mike,
I didn't know if you were determined to make your own leads or not. But if you 
are interested, you can get just about anything you want for your Triplett 
meter at the following website.

http://www.byramlabs.com/triplett.php

http://www.byramlabs.com/triplett_leads.php

I have no affiliation with the site. I just know of them because last Christmas 
I spruced up an old 310 for my grandfather-in law. He was a long time employee 
of old Ma Bell and used the 310 for years.

He said to me one day I just can't use those dam digital meters!

So, I figured I would fix up an old one for him

... and that's the rest of the story

 The jacks are smaller than a bananna plug and
 bigger than a pin plug.
 
 I'd really like to find a set - this is too nice a meter to leave
 in a desk drawer only becasue there are no probes.
 If I can make it usable it will go great in my go-bag.

[Repeater-Builder] Using IC-F1010 x 2 as repeaters???

hi.
Can our radiogrop use icom icf1010 as a repeater? Where can we get info 
and connection equitment?
Thanks and best regards
la4vna, Harald


Re: [Repeater-Builder] Using IC-F1010 x 2 as repeaters???

2010-06-04 Thread Gareth Bennett
You will need to utilise the OPC-617 interface leads. With these you can 
configure the radios as a Basic Repeater. 

Just a simple process of bringing out the DB9 sockets from the OPC-617 to a 
common mating block with a trimmer pot between the audio out and mic in ports 
for setting up line levels and tying the Busy Out to the TX line. 

Just bear in mind that you are dealing with mobiles that exhibit little 
selectivity and a very low TX duty cycle, so not the best choice to deploy in 
RF dense locations and if you are planning to utilise the repeater in a high 
duty cycle situation.

Cheers

RE: [Repeater-Builder] GE Master Exec 50W Low Band 42-50 Splitt PA needed

2010-06-04 Thread Eric Lemmon
Wayne,

Please share with the Group the details of the failure.  Was the PA properly
modified to operate efficiently at 6m, or was it a stock 42-50 split PA?
If not, at what power level was it being used?  If the PA was unmodified and
being operated well outside of its intended band, I guess the tried and
true description means that it worked well- for a while- despite being
misapplied!
