[Repeater-Builder] TLD5492 Exciter

2007-07-08 Thread Eric Lemmon
The D in the part number identifies it as a VHF exciter, so it must be followed by a tripler in a UHF station. I could not find TLD5492 in any of my Micor manuals- are you certain about the number? Was it stamped in black ink directly onto the exciter circuit board itself? If not, please advise

The TLD5492A is shown in my 1979 UHF Micor Base and Repeater manual 68P81025E50-G, and is indeed as Eric suggested a VHF exciter (150.8-174 mHz) followed by the tripler. It is part of the TLE1720B exciter assembly. The TLD5491 is the low split version (132-150.8). If I have a chance later,

Don, I have owned a number of GPS receivers over the years, and I feel that the Garmin GPS76 is about the best non-professional GPS receiver I have used. It doesn't have the centimeter-level accuracy of my Ashtech survey-grade receiver, but it comes about as close as you can get without
