RE: [Repeater-Builder] UHF Micor Receivers WANTED

[N9WYS]

Kevin and all



I will check further into this issue 
rest assured. And will report back with what I find, even if that indicates I
was in error. (Which, given the amount of replies Ive had, is quite
likely) I want to find the chassis I looked at before and also query my
source regarding his information.



I like to know what Im talking
about and not go off half-cocked  which I apparently did this time
So actually, I do have reason to run off, as you put it. J Call it self-imposed. Reason:
Issues like this tend to discredit any future information I may have to offer,
simply because others will remember this instance.



Again my apologies to everyone on the
list. I will verify any information I post before doing do in the future, or
at least attempt to qualify it better.

Have you tried ebay? Just in the last few weeks, there was a set of three - 406-420 MHZ rangeUHF MICOR mobiles that went for $10 for the set of three.

Sometimes you have to go digging.

Only thing about using mobile receiver sections
in a SpectraTAC is that the mobile receivers do not have the preselector on the
board itself. 

Otherwise, its plug and play

Huh?  Micor receivers are Micor receivers, whether they're sitting in a
mobile, station, or SpectraTAC chassis.  Or in some cases, even in a
PURC/MSF5000 receiver chassis.

I guess I'm confused - I'm using a VHF MICOR mobile receiver (converted to 2-Meters) which is installed in a Spectra-Tac receiver chassis. I didn't see anything strange about the receiver when I installed it. 

I also used a UHF MICOR mobile receiver in another Spectra-Tac receiver chassisin a GE MASTR-Pro UHF Repeater (since I already had the MICOR receiver channel element crystalled up for the frequency I wanted.) Nothing unusual about either receiver that I noticed. Ialso had a 10-Meter MICOR receiver installed in a Spectra-Tac receiver chassis some years ago.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] UHF Micor Receivers WANTED

[N9WYS]

Maybe Im calling it something that
it isnt then 

Im thinking of the solid aluminum
block with screws and an antenna connection. I was thinking that is the
preselector.



I believe someone (more educated than I
regarding the Micor) also told me information that at one point in time. Now
Im confused.

The UHF preselector mounts to the circuit board and looks 
like a aluminum block.
The VHF mounts differently and is a longer, thinner rectangle.
Both do the same function in the circuitry, they just look 
different - probably different design teams. On the other 
tentacle, the VHF and UHF preselectors in the 
Motrac / Motran line looked almost the same - you had to 
look at the stamped part number to be sure:
TLD=high band, TLE=UHF
