[Repeater-Builder] Re: Tait 800 - EPROMS, Manuals, Software
I think they are Series I (published in 1991). You have to program the EPROMs using an external programmer.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: VHF Engineering Tx Help Needed
Hello Doug, I had a similar problem with a VHF Engineering Transmitter-PA. Incoming signals would key the repeater but there was no RF output. First you need to find out if the fault is in the TX or the PA. The output of the TX alone should be 1-1.5W. If that's ok, then you should focus on finding a problem in the PA. If I remember correctly the way I tested it was by connecting a power meter to the output of the TX to see if the output power was ok. I got 1-1.5W as expected so the next step was connect a 1W input signal taken from a handheld radio to the input of the PA. The output was almost zero. In my case the fault was with the final transistor (2N 6081). After replacing it the output was around 3-4W but after following the tuning procedure described in the manual it went up to 15W. You might want to do this first, just in case the low output is due to a misalignment problem. Now if the problem is with the TX module... I would check if the transistors are ok... You can get all the manuals from the Repeater builder website as pointed out by Eric. Hope this helps. 73, Andreas - 5B8AP --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, Eric Lemmon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Doug, The Repeater-Builder site has good info on VHF Engineering equipment.

[Repeater-Builder] Re: Repeater Controller SSC 836AA
Yes, the controller is in the Tait station. You may be right, it could be a Tone Remote board or something similar. Any idea where I can find more infromation about it? cheers, Andreas - 5B8AP --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, Jim B.

It also has the following on the PCB: T-A2-1761-4 if it makes any difference... Was this in the Tait station you mentioned? I ask because I think this is not a repeater controller, but a tone or DC remote panel. SSC did make various remotes, not sure if they're still around or not. And I remember 836AA was one of their model numbers for either a tone or DC remote. -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL
[Repeater-Builder] Repeater Controller SSC 836AA
Hello all, Does anyone have a manual or information on an SSC 836AA repeater controller? It also has the following on the PCB: T-A2-1761-4 if it makes any difference... Also, has anyone configured a TAIT T800 Base Station/repeater for use as a repeater? thanks, Andreas - 5B8AP
