Hi Folks,
Trying to find some info on dup.s I got a t a hamfest this past weekend. I
believe they are Sinclair Q-318 dup.s. 4 cans, about 7 round and about 12.5
high. Has the fine and coarse tuning.
Looks like the cables have been mod'ed with rg214 cables and *was* on
443.725/448.725.
Most of mine do DPL.

Our MSR 2000 has a TPN1189A power supply in stead of the TPN1191 listed in the
manual and on Repeater-Builder. I need a schematic for this PS.
Any help would be appreciated.

Perhaps this is region dependent. Most radios made for the past several
I still have, and occasionally use, my Icom IC-4AT and Tempo S1 hand held
radios - both have thumbwheel frequency selection for those who don't know
what they are. Sometimes I wish they still made simple radios like that, but
a little smaller. Great on batteries - goes for days, not hours.
Ahh, the Tempo S1! You could always tell when someone had one of these
because of the Tempo Ping when you went to transmit and the PLL
locked. I still have my S1T on the shelf and I'm looking for the
extendable antenna for it that I lost. I can't bring myself to getting
rid of it.

Of course you did the mod on yours to allow external CTCSS encode selection
with a DIP switch mounted in the PTT bar, didn't you?

Says on the brochure it is 450-470. You would need a VPL-1 programing

This is a real issue for some new hams. They get inspired to participate in
local emergency groups, attend classes, get their Tech license, then go looking
for the most bang for the buck in a handheld. Some get so discouraged at the
complexity of their radios they're never heard from again.
I believe 1 software version will allow you to program out of band. The other
software versions would not. You will need the programming cable VPL-1. It has
been a while since I programmed one, but I think it will drop power a very
small amount. It is actually a cross band repeater you add to a

Most of the new ham radios support at least encode CTCSS.
Anyone still using an old radio that does not have CTCSS encode needs
to upgrade or get it installed.

No, you DO have a TPN1191 power supply! The TPN1189A is the Auxiliary
Regulator Chassis, one component of the TPN1191 power supply. The schematic
for the TPN1189A chassis is included in the TPN1191 power supply manual

manual

FWIW, you do know there really is no such thing as 'inverted DPL', don't
you? Every 'inverted' code corresponds to a 'non-inverted' code. So,
even if you're using an 'inverted code', if someone tries all the
