[Repeater-Builder] Master 2 vhf and a link radio Uhf,How???
Hi i have my repeater that is master 2 base repeater,,the oven as called. i wonder what is the simplest way to connect an uhf radio,Ge phoenix on her?? i could use the screew on her back plate?? i need an uhf that would be use as a link radio,anyone that want to use the Vhf repeater could enter via the uhf link radio. can it be done in a simplest way. i dont need cw id since i already have one on the vhf side so it would tx on uhf too. can you help me ?? thanks all gervais ve2ckn le bic,quebec _
Re: [Repeater-Builder] Master 2 vhf and a link radio Uhf,How???
Gervais, take a look at the link below for an interface to EchoLink for one of the PSE-508 controllers. http://www.pionsimon.com/w5zit.htm My original interface used the stock GE Repeater Audio and Repeater Control cards, and I found that the PSE-508 could be modified the same way. But you can see where the signals need to come from in the GE Repeater for an external link. Use the RUS signal through an inverter to key your PTT on the link radio, and connect the audio to your link radio in parallel with the repeater transmitter audio input. You will have to condition your CAS from the link radio to operate the PTT on the repeater while the audio from the link radio goes to the mic input screws as shown. The opto-isolators can be used for both purposes, one to key the repeater and the other to key the link radio. The circuit shown has some provisions to interface RS-232 signal lines which you will not need for a radio interface, so you will have to make some modifications. I think I ran off a schematic for a radio interface to the PSE-508 that I may be able to find and forward to you if you are interested. You are probably not using a PSE-508, but this may give you some ideas for your controller. 73 - Jim W5ZIT --- On Fri, 11/21/08, gervais fillion [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: gervais fillion [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Master 2 vhf and a link radio Uhf,How???

Gervais, Here are the files I could not find to send you before.

Hi
i have my repeater that is master 2 base repeater,,the oven as called.
i wonder what is the simplest way to connect an uhf radio,Ge phoenix on her??
i could use the screew on her back plate??
i need an uhf that would be use as a link radio,anyone that want to use the Vhf
repeater could enter via the uhf link radio.
can it be done in a simplest way.
i dont need cw id since i already have one on the vhf side so it would tx on
uhf too.
can you help me ??
thanks all

\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs32 PSE508 Link Radio Interface\fs20\par
\par
\fs24 All connections to the link radio Interface may be taken from the GE Mastr II Control Shelf Mother Board screw terminals by making the following modifications to the PSE508 Board. Careful attention must be paid to avoid flowing solder on the pins of P1206B to avoid problems plugging the board into the card shelf. Solder to the inboard 1/16 inch of the pin only.\par
\par
Jumper Q6 Collector (3) to P1206B pin 6. This will be the RUS connection for keying the link radio. Q6 Collector goes negative for a valid received signal plus CTCSS tone. This will only provide a receive signal indication and key the link transmitter when a repeater user is keyed, and will not propigate the repeater ID or bubble up to the remote receiver. This signal would then be available on the Control Shelf terminal 10.\par
\par
Properly de-emphasized receive audio is present on the Test Header J6 pin 4 on the PSE508 board. This signal may be jumpered to P1206B pin 3 to make this signal available on the Control Shelf terminal 11. This audio is suitable for the Mic input on the link radio.\par
\par
Make the following connections from the Control Shelf terminals to the link radio Interface:\par
\par
2 - PTT\par
4 - MIC Audio\par
5 - GRD\par
9 - +10 VDC\par
10- RUS\par
11- REC Audio\par
\par
The circuit provides isolation for the audio path and the PTT path between the link radio and the repeater. The two should be grounded together and to a good earth ground external to the circuit before plugging in the interface.\par

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Master 2 vhf and a link radio Uhf,How???
I did not take any pictures Gervais, but the important thing to keep in mind is that the complete interface to the external radio can be done using the terminal connections on the rear of the card file. The modifications are only documented for a PSE-508, but the idea is there to use the two unused terminals on the card file for the receive audio and RUS signals by connecting them to the right pins in the repeater. Along with the existing mic terminals the interface board can then be remoted or placed in the link radio for a simple interconnect. 73 - Jim W5ZIT --- On Fri, 11/21/08, gervais fillion [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: gervais fillion [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Master 2 vhf and a link radio Uhf,How???
