[Repeater-Builder] Maxtrac with no Tx PL

Hi All, I have a Maxtrac with no Tx PL. I've checked the programming several times, even cloned another radio. I've tried both TPL and DPL. I've checked the Tx output on the service monitor and there just isn't any TPL/DPL there. Mic audio is there and deviating at the proper level. What

[Repeater-Builder] Re: [RLC] What's the point of the PL input on the RLC4?

Hi Mike, You may have already figured this out... use the 005 command to set the ports access mode. I sounds like you want 005 2 3. -Sean 005: Set Receiver and DTMF Decoder Conditions 005 p y Set receiver’s access mode Parameters: - 005 is the default command name. - ‘p’ is the port number

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Repeater Link Identification

If you are using the4 RC-210 it doesn't take the link out of commission during the ID. Say it's time to ID the remote TX comes up and starts IDing without PL, if someone keys up on the repeater the PL get's enabled on the remote TX radio and what's left of the ID will be heard. With the RC-210

I've used Chip Angle's band-pass filters and preamps with very good results and he's always been willing to chat on the phone. http://www.anglelinear.com -Sean I am looking for a supplier of low noise high performance receiver preamps and preselectors for a 1272.100 receiver. I have

Hi Mike, Are you trying to take the data stream from the Ultimeter and send it to both the WX Trak for APRS and the CAT WS-1000, which would be connected to your CAT-1000? -Sean Gary, I'm not trying to DECODE any packet data. just convert the Peet WX data to packets for the radio to

Hi Mike, Are you trying to take the data stream from the Ultimeter and send it to both the WX Trak for APRS and the CAT WS-1000, which would be connected to your CAT-1000? -Sean whoop! that should say send it to both the WX Trak for APRS and the CAT-1000 with the WS-1000 firmware

Hi Glenn, The www.fieldcomm.org link doesn't seem to work. I found the information here: http://fieldcomm.org/gk/article.php?story=20070414233125839 -Sean Here is a link to a review of the portable repeaters that I build. They are built around P110/GP300's. _www.fieldcomm.org - 70cm

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Kenwood TK-353 May be OT

Generally you have to put the Kenwood radios in to programming mode, then you can read/write to it. Try one of the following to get it into programming mode. Press and hold the button below PTT and C button and then turn on. Wait a couple of seconds. or Press and hold MON and A buttons, and

I am using a WD-100 with an old Bendix-King radio connected to an RLC-3 and it works great. Sure it's not as cheap as hacking a Radio Shack WX Radio, but it has all of the features you need and more. -Sean This might be of interest: http://www.catauto.com/wd100.html More notes below At

Thank Eric! I'll give them a call. -Sean -Sean Sean, Contact Telewave for information about your Wacom duplexer cables. Telewave duplexers are very similar in construction to the Wacom units, and Telewave has the technical data to support and/or modify Wacom cavities. Go here:

[Repeater-Builder] Wacom WP-641 cable type and lengths

Hi All, I have access to a WP-641 factory tuned to the ham band, but someone removed and misplaced the interconnect cables. Does anyone have a WP-641 that they could take the measurements from? I am also in need of the type of cable used. I think Wacom used RG-223/U. Thanks, Sean

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Wacom WP-641 cable type and lengths

Thanks for the measurements! I think I will go with RG-214. -Sean Don't know what is used in the 641 but the interconnect length for the WP-642 set up for N connectors is 12 3/8 inches for the 2 meter band. I don't think Wacom used RG-223U. Their UHF duplexers were supplied with RG-142

[Repeater-Builder] Equipment Forsale

Hi All, I recently listed two Kenwood TM-541A 1200MHz radios on that auction site both have the COS brought out and terminated on the back. They make great link or repeater radios. I have also listed a Wacom WP-698 BpBr 4-cavity 1200MHz duplexer and a Celwave 900Mhz notch duplexer tuned to
