The 1st thing is buy a repeater that is FCC type accepted
I have 3 of the Kenwood TKR-850 ver, two's on GMRS and they work very well.
Some of the things you can do on Ham radio for a repeater you can not do on
GMRS.
Also make sure you get a GMRS ticket.
Good luck!

Well, I have not heard anything from the FAA, but I can still see the spurs on the SA, not real bad. But it still seems that I am riding along the 132.950 at least on my radio, but I get a few miles from the house and nothing. I'm still using the FT736R as a transmitter. I ordered xtals from

As far as FAA your repeater with antenna on the ground can easily be heard from an aircraft at even 2000 ft. We try to get repeaters high to be able to work low mobiles. We should start insisting on the mobiles being high, hi.
Never use JAN crystals in my option. Have tried them and
Nick,
You need to get a license, $75 for 5 years. Also download part 95, regs
for GMRS, from www.fcc.gov; about 20-30 pages. They follow pretty much the
old CB rules.
Base stations are restricted to 20 ft above structure and 25 watts ERP, but
repeater can go as high as they like and run 50
Anthony,
Does sound like intermod. Micor has tight front end, but if problem is
with intermod the undesired signal could end up near or on your freq.
Would be nice to be able to disconnect antenna when the problem occurs to
see if from external or internal to Micor.
Wonder if you are using
It's up to $80 now I see.

Best places I ran accross that are still making crystals are International,
800-725-1426, in OK and Bomar, 800-526-3935. For a pair including shipping
International $47 taking about 6 weeks, Bomar $60 with true 2 weeks. Think
both are about the same and make a very good crystal and are well
I have never had a problem with JAN or Bomar, and
International is good too, but expensive.

I thought Bomar only charged $10.00 per xtal so long as you don't need them right away. I've used Jan for years, this is the first xtal that I have had a problem with.

Hi Guys:
During an intense lightning storm this past Saturday,
my 100 watt Mastr II UHF repeater (real repeater, not

Either looking for a replacement transistor, or a complete

I spend the extra money and save money by using International or
Bomar. International is in some kind of screwed up situation, think
due to them buying out Sentry, with 6 + weeks delievery. Bomar cost
more, but both make an excellent crystal.

How common is it to use a band pass filter ahead of a pass-reject

reason for adding a band pass filter there on antenna input to

Jan has been very troublesome in the 25+ years I have been a ham, you hear
of a lot of complaints.
Bomar gave me a couple of bum crystals and then a few that drifted back in

from me in NJ but I quit using them.

when you look at a response plot that covers 10 MHz, it may look very
