[Repeater-Builder] Re: A true Dual Squelch Circuit ?

Keeping in mind the normal Micor Squelch is a dual speed squelch circuit for the audio and a second squelch (on the Squelch Gate Module) circuit for the repeater cor/cos/tx function. If you remove the chip from the original circuit and use only it for cos/cor you no longer have the dual

It would be simpler and cheaper to find a tuneable or frequency agile modulator. Jerrold, Blonder Tongue, DX Antenna, Drake, and Olson are just a few of the companies that make them. I've seen them for as little as $20. Paul kb9wlc --- Wallace Steinbrecher [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Gentlemen,

Hello Jim, Actually, I took my first super station master apart just last week or so. I removed guts of the antenna, and replaced them with a 70CM Diamond F718A vertical (11.5db). The entire Diamond antenna slid right up into the shell of the super station master with room to spare

On the one's I've removed, there wasn't a need to use a torch. Just remove the screws at the top and bottom and pull from the base. When finished examining the removed assembly, it should slide back together without too much fuss. Jack - N7OO - Original Message - From: Paul

I have a Micor Station 100 VHF that was used as a paging base. I removed the backplane and installed a normal one and removed the cards for paging, and installed normal base station cards. I completed the conversion (removing diode) for allowing the receiver to operate all the time. Here is

Meter the pins to both the audio squelch board and reciever board and see where it is losing voltage while ptt is active (probably losing 9.6 volts somewhere) then find 9.6v supply and tie it in directly. You should have been able to use the paging backplane, I did on mine with outboard
