I have a TLD-1100 vhf rcc unit in my garage somewhere. I used to use it many
years ago on the local rcc.
Are these things worth anything?
I think I also have an old motrac vhf radio that I had on rcc before that. I
bolted a duplexer on the top of it and made it full duplex and turned the
power

We have a 440 repeater with a Six meter remote base setup. On the
Six meter receiver we constantly get little pops that key up the
repeater and is quite anoying. The Pops are created by very close
TV station transmitters at the site and appear to be on channel so
filtering is not an option.
Thanks i found out its a Andrew dB224 - 155-165mhz, i was hoping it
would be in the 145mhz - 2 meter ham band range but it seems you cant
adjust this type of antenna.

I had exactly this same problem when I used an RCA TAC-200 radio as a
repeater. It would let small slivers of squelch COS through to the
controller and would key up the tail on the controller. In my case it
occurred every 10 or 15 minutes and was an artifact of the radio
squelch circuit.

Not without a hacksaw and a TIG ? MIG ? welder.

WTB - New DB224 antenna. 138-150 MHz split.
If you've got one in a box that you're never going to use, turn it into
cash now.

Thanks.
I've been told one way to lengthen the elements is to put a bolt
through the middle of the bends (top bottom) of each element.
Aluminum bolts would be preferred.
Of course, this does nothing to improve the match, but it may be
broad enough. Some experimentation would be in order...there's
The characteristic impedance of a folded dipole in free space is 280 Ohms per
John Krause in his book on Antennas page 417. Put that folded dipole next to
a metal pipe as on a DB 224 and the impedance changes to a resistive component
of about 125 Ohms with a capacitave reactance component.
Hi Gary,

hand-held 1MHz to 7GHz 999-Euro spectrum analyzer? Any comments
appreciated.

If it won't improve the match, why do it?

If you decide to expand your search for an instrument to include
established brands, there have been three companies in the handheld
spectrum analyzer market that build quality products: Anritsu,
Rohde Schwarz, and Wiltek.
Agilent has also just introduced a handheld unit, but it is
You may find it works OK on 2 meters. Probably not
good enough for a repeater though. There has been
discussions here before about extending the elements
and building new harnesses. The harness is made up of
75 ohm and 35 ohm Vaporlock weather proof coax cut to
multiples of 1/4 wavelength.

I have modified several of the DB-224 antennas to the 2 meter band by
adding a short stub to lengthen each end of each dipole. I make the
stubs from the tubing salvaged from an old TV antenna, and it is easy
to flatten one end and wrap it around the curved end of the DB-224
dipole. I drill a

the two sides interlace with out touching. The cavity in
