Re: [Repeater-Builder] Tripplite Inverters
I've had problems with Tripplite power supplys. They randomly explode and the company won't give you a schematic to fix one, but they will gladly sell you another.

John, I use to Volunteer working Midnight Security at a large Church, and I had My Ham equipment in the Veh . I did not have a DC Adapter for My old IBM Laptop , So I got a Tripplite 300 Watt Inverter to power it , I the RF Generated Noise was so bad I could only hear Strong PKT And other Digital signals , The RF Hash was so bad on My Icom 706 Mk-2 It blocked most Signals on HF . The design may have changed since then but that was My experience Good Luck Don KA9QJG
RE: [Repeater-Builder] Tripplite Inverters
How long ago was that or how old was the unit. Tripplite just came out with a new line of inverters about a year or 2 ago. Do you happen to know the model of the unit you had that generated the RF hash? -- Original Message -- Received: Thu, 28 May 2009 03:33:01 PM PDT From: ka9qjg ka9...@wowway.com To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Tripplite Inverters John, I use to Volunteer working Midnight Security at a large Church, and I had My Ham equipment in the Veh .
