they still sounded better then a Twin-V with a bad carbon mic!

Mike,
Your concerns seem to be a typical situation that all of us, as repeater
owners/operators, have experienced at least once.
I also hear the same complaints - How come the repeater sounds so bad
today? or I couldn't get into the machine yesterday. So I take a ride to
the site and
If you are in a position to operate a higher transmit power
machine/repeater... there are less questions about the machine
performance and the burden is on the user to get a decent
signal into the receiver.
The psychology of repeater operation...

The 1500's with the aluminum plate are pretty light, I've used long bolts
and sleeves to stand the things off the back side of the rack and accomplish
this. It's not as pretty, but assuming you have regular rack rails

Motorola makes an offset bracket kit that is ideal for this purpose. It is
Part #0784384T03, a package of two brackets, for about $55. These are
heavy-duty brackets, designed to mount an MTR2000 station in an equipment
rack so that its center of gravity is aligned with the rack uprights.
As I don't have a lot of free time these days to fabricate 'em.
I'm looking for the set of brackets that allow a T1500 series
duplexer to be recessed mounted in a rack so the tuning shafts don't
protrude past the front of the rack.
If you have a set that you wish to part with, contact me

Anything which changes the dielectric constant of the immediate antenna
environment detunes the antenna, conductor or not. The power companies AVOID
resonance in their transmission networks, and don't measure SWR, so they're
concerned only with the mechanical

Hi there..
I was reading some of the reactions on the topic remote monitoring
And I caught my attention I am currently upgrading a 2meter repeater here
in the Netherland called pi3goe and am also looking for a remote signaling
option to the repeater.
During my search I came across a
I checked the bracket price on MOL just a few minutes ago, and it was
$66.73, but that's still a chunk of change.
Since the owners of the sites where I have repeaters will not allow wooden
spacers or cabinet parts, I suggest a low-cost alternative. McMaster-Carr
and other suppliers offer
