If it is easy to do, go with the single lenght. Less connector losses and
chances of failure due to water ingress or corrosion etc.

Easy answer.
We have a Motorola of that vintage in as a temporary repeater --
our earlier Yaesu/Vertex and TPL amp failed last month after over 12 years of
full-time service.
We are assembling a new repeater system --
and plan to have the Kenwood TKR-850 as the main component of the new system
All the motorola xts/xtl series can do it with the correct firmware Tait
and simoco as well.

Hi Chuck,
TA probably is, I dont think I have seen a portable without it. The voting
setup allows comms to take place without having to worry about TA buttons or
channel changing. Just set and forget.

The Icom IC-22A is crystal-controlled, so has ultimate flexibility (at the

The Icom IC-22U came after the IC-22S (23 channel with diode matrix board) --

Generally, I have seen them sell on eBay for ~ $15 to $50 large

Did you check the resistor (for voltage drop) on that LED??
It is very possible that resistor has either changed in value or
the value may have been mistakenly read (red for orange) during final assembly
(it happens).

Possibly someone has their aprs tracker set to your repeater pair by accident.

If you have a tnc, dial up your pair(preferably the input), and monitor it on a

I am really after the programming voltage.
21 volts is slow, and 25 whips it right out, neither smokes the chip.
Both seem to work, but I am thinking 25 volts is the right one.
