that have two connectors. Motorola, GE, DB Products and possibly others made
them. They show up surplus every so often and for a 600 KHz close spaced 2

If you run across any 406 - 420 MHz Micors or Mitreks I could use one or two of
each.

BTW the Kenwood 820 also makes a nice homebrew D-STAR repeater as
well. Still working on some desense issues but NW7DR B transmits and
receives D-STAR compatible GMSK just fine.

A local tried that years ago. It works, sometimes.
You have to be very careful about passive intermod.
But nothing helps if you don't do the math...
Like 147.03 transmit and 441.075 or 447.100 receive...

I also used a 3db collinear as a TX at the same height as the 4 bay

For what type of chassis, the exciter is different on the unified chassis.

Do your coverage tests with one radio at the repeater site and use simplex.

Have a local engineer inspect it , preferably of the mechanical kind or someone
in construction with a clue as it may wel be fine but wthout a decent visual
it might fall anytime
At that age I would be suspicious or further use in another location

If this happens to be near Saltsburg, look up the tower and I think you
will find the tower is bent from the trees pulling on the guy wires. At
least, it was that way about 10-15 years ago, and I doubt it has gotten
any better. I also doubt you will find anyone willing (read: dumb

You could get a pretty penny for the copper that is in the heliax.
You would probably need a crane to disassemble it and sell it for steel.

Engineering firms are usually about $400.00 per hour. I
Different tower, then. The one I was talking about was 'infested' with
pine trees and was severely bent over.
Still, I would look to see if the tower is straight since you have a

Good point - but I have both mobile and base exciter boards available
