Re: [Repeater-Builder] Spectrum Communications SCR 77 UHF repeater
Hi Tim, Looking at our S-7R manual about the optional CWID, it is factory programmed. We use the id from our controller as the id source.

From what I have read about this CWIDer you have to have the manufacturer burn a chip for you that plugs into the board. Is there any other way? Thanks, Tim WD4CHS

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Spectrum Communications SCR 77 UHF repeater
Tim, If the IDer has a PROM then little can and should be done to go another way...a new PROM. Do you know the PROM part number??? If one reads it often one can determine the method used for setting up the ID. Some simply use one to turn on a tong gen and a zero to turn off and simply clock a counter thur the addresses and maybe use a second data line output that gives a 1 or 0 when finished to stop. If you know the PROM type one might be able to program and replace. One problem is the PROMs are so old they are hard to find. Depending on the PROM I might be able to help. 73, ron, n9ee/r From: wd4chs [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2007/08/23 Thu PM 02:37:49 CDT To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Spectrum Communications SCR 77 UHF repeater I am in need of or someone who knows anything about the CWID for a Spectrum SCR-77 UHF repeater.

If I remember right the prom they used had more than one section and so could be re-programmed. Just one jumper needed to be changed to address the new section.
