I have a lot of thanking to do. Thank you to everyone here who provided their two cents, feedback, memories and thoughts on this RCC Unit. Big thanks to Eric for the link to the Comb breakdown, I have printed it out and added it to my bench clipboard. To you lot - let me know if I can repay

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Coax length, etc.

Thanks, guys, a good topic and one that always seems to come up. And it sparks more questions and comments, of course. The cable length issue is a brother to if you don't like your VSWR, change the point along the transmission line where you're measuring it. By changing the length of the

I was told that I should be using 5C for receive and transmit but the 5C will NOT fit on my PLL exciter. Any ideas? Steve W4SEF

RE: [Repeater-Builder] RE:Mastr II drift problem

There are 5C elements made for that exciter. you just do not have one.. From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:repeater-buil...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of steve Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 1:01 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Repeater-Builder] RE:Mastr II

[Repeater-Builder] Polyphaser EOL ?

Hi folks, We noticed reduced sensitivity at one of our remote receivers recently. Went out to check things. All looked good. SWR to the receive antenna was good. Check it with and w/o Polyphaser in line. Replaced Polyphaser and tested again. same SWR but sensitivity much improved. Is this

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Polyphaser EOL ?

Usually the SWR goes up,when the Polyphaser reaches it's EOL, as well as reduced receive. 73 Dan KF8DB To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com From: wa3...@comcast.net Date: Thu, 5 Aug 2010 13:14:28 -0400 Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Polyphaser EOL ? Hi folks, We noticed reduced

To All: I am still trying to locate a Coaxial Relay with a 12 vdc coil and either N or UHF connectors. Please contact me off net if you have one available. Many Thanks. Fred seamansfh at sbcglobal dot net

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Polyphaser EOL ?

Check that Polyphasor with an ohmeter, I'll bet you find a short or resistance from center to shield. Had one go out once, poor RX on a base station was the complaint. Found high VSWR. Polyphasor showed dead short from center to shield. Cracked the housing apart (with a cold chisel) and

Good detective work, Stan and Tim! Yes, V5.18 exists and is ready for testing. I was doing a bit more testing and finishing the documentation (at the link you found, quoted below) before I officially released it for testing. It looks you you have already tried it out, so we are ahead of the

Sucess! I completely cleaned and re tinned my Weller 8100 tip, added some solder, and got heat transfer to pop it up. I was not aware of the fish paper that the wires came thru. Now to troubleshoot the amp. It probably has some blown transistors as well as the cooked caps and 12 ohm
