Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

  You remember when GE used RF patch cables that had the RCA plugs 
 on both ends?  

  I 'still' have some here ...

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

I wished it was available.  I had several of these cables but tossed them
all out about 5 years ago when I thought I was done playing with radios.
Just go to show keep it, you never know when you will need it.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Kevin King]

Mathew,

just get the cables from a GE base. It will most likely have an so239 on it
and replace it. I would not worry about using the RCA plug. GE had them on
mastrII's for years. I will look to see if I can scrounge a spare cable.

I think the point was mistaken here.  I either have to change the connector
on the receiver so that the cable goes directly to the receiver without
using any connetors to change from one type of plug to another, or find a
special cable with an RCA on one end and a Type N Male on the other.  My
objective is to never visit the repeater site once this machine is done.
And if I have to, I don't want it to be becuase I used a cheap connector to
tie in the reciever. The receiver is the GE MASTR ER41.  I'd rather just
change the connector to a type N connector, but would have to widdle a
little on the internal copper casing to put it in place.  Question:  If I
install the type N connector, and there is a solder point behind the inside,
am I going to run into troubles.  I hate to cut into it to find that I'm
opening a can or worms for noise to get in?

I'd use the origional GE cable if available. I'm not fond of RCA's but

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Joe]

I don't know if you are really going to have a big problem with the MASTR 
RCA connector.  I would make the cable up myself, RCA plugs are not that 
hard to put on.  I use the MASTR ER41 receiver on my packet digi and have 
not had any problems with the receiver connector.  If I really wanted to 
change it, I would use an SMA connector because it is small.  Second choice 
might be a BNC, but I have found BNC connectors to get noisy after time.  I 
had a home brew 220Mhz duplexer that used BNC connectors. I had to take the 
connectors off and on a few times a year to keep the noise down.

just call Tessco and have them make you an RCA to N cable  and be done with 
it.  one cable make and tested the way you need it.
we do it all the time and never any problems.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

I'm not  entirely tongue in cheek  when I ask  whether you should be in
charge of a repeater or installing one if you have  not got the expertise to
cut a bit of coax  and fit a plug or socket. And if  the spare 20 minutes is
to much for  some then that would explain the funny noises I often hear on
two meters whilst traveling around.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Mike Perryman]

Bob,
You are on the same track as I am...  I just think the ability to replace 
the cable with a readily available jumper would simplify things in case of 
a failure.  Downtime can really hurt if it is a paying client in the 
emergency services arena.

Say for instance, you are on vacation and the jumper gets damaged while 
your "bestes buddy" trusted tech is watching your accounts for 
you  will he have a jumper in stock?  Judging from the length of this 
thread, probably not.  Now the client is ill due to down time in a critical 
application  your spouse is ill due to having to cut the vacation short 
because you had to race home to make things "all better".  Standardized 
parts make life s much simpler.

Five minutes on the bench to "standardize" things can save boatloads of 
grief later down the road!!

As I am not terribly familiar with the specifics of this installation, this 
is only a suggestion...
You might relocate the point of entry to a better location, using UG-141 
hard-line and the hooded Type-N chassis connector.  If flexibility is 
needed use the flexible variety of cable (the nomenclature escapes me at 
the moment).

Like I said...  just my 2 cents... YMMV.  And one size certainly doesn't 
fit all.
My standard disclaimer is here 

Wonder what the impedance bump for an RCA connector looks like at 
say...  489MHz??

Normally I'd agree, but that RCA connector is kind of difficult to get at & 
there may not be enough room for a different connector.

You didn't mention if the Mastr Pro RX is VHF or UHF.  If it's UHF, you're 
probably already using a preamp ahead of it due to the high noise figure of 
the stock receiver.  Another 1/2 dB of mismatch loss due to the RCA 
connector won't be noticable if it's downstream from the preamp.

Its not that they do not know how to install it correctly!
They just do not want to take the time to do the job correctly!

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Mike Perryman]

My 2 cents would be to replace the connector on the receiver
"adapterators" are nothing more than an invitation for gremlins to sneak
into your system...  not to mention added impedance bumps...  added
losses...  potential connection problems...  etc... etc etc

I like the "KISS" method... Keep it simple...   and clean.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[W2JRT - Jeff]

Someplaces will perform a free sweep if you buy the cable, connectors and
installation of connectors from them.

Most recent cable I purchased was 55 feet of LD4F-50A, with Andrew "N" Type
male connectors installed on both ends with a sweep for $210.00 plus
shipping.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Neil McKie]

  Meaning they will assemble but won't test it - and you don't find 
 their mistakes until you are up the tower? 

  That doesn't make any points with me.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Chuck Kelsey]

Alas, some THINK they know how to install a connector. I'd hate to admit to 
the number of times I've seen simple PL-259's incorrectly installed by hams.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[W2JRT - Jeff]

The cost of the connector installation is well worth it if they also perform
a sweep.

I have seen as much as $25 per connector.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Maire Company]

yes but some don't have the time or maybe not the skill to do it.  When we 
set up a site we at most times don't have the time to do connectors, as we 
need to get the system on line and move on to other jobs.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[russ]

The problem with TESSCO is they charge $7.00 per connector to install them
plus the cost of the hard-line and connector. That's $14.00 some folks out
there if you buy the parts from them do the install for free.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Ted Bleiman K9MDM - MDM Radio]

matt
i have a 40 in piece of fsj4-50 superflex with factory installed connectors. 'N' femate on one end and n male right angle on the other . i also have a 14 in piece of rg-142 with the small pin rca on one end and n male on the other . this would give you more than 4 1/2 ft to connect the rx to duplexer. $15 includes psotage to you.
these were professionally made cables NOS.,

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Joe]

GE used an RCA connector with a short center pin,
unlike what you buy today.  Make sure that, if you do
get the long pin version, it doesn't short out on
anything under the jack on the chassis.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Source for custom made cables

[Paul Guello]

RCA plug to BNC jack adapters are readily available. 
With that adapter all you need then is a N to BNC
cable, much easier to find or make.
