[Repeater-Builder] GLB Synthesizer - The next step?

I found this thread quite interesting...I didn't know the GLB existed till now. It sounds like a fun thing to tinker with. Have to keep my eyes open. But I've had this concept in my brain for a while, and I wonder what you all might think. Bear in mind its a concept. Seems that the next

[Repeater-Builder] GLB Synthesizer

Folks, I wonder if anyone out there has any information on the offset crystal needed for a GLB synthesizer. I am trying to interface an old GLB to my old Motorola Motrac (U63HHT). Its an old boatanchor. Trying to replicate my early days on 2 meters when I ran this setup. But I have lost

I dug up my manual to answer the original question, but someone beat me to it. Several of the add-on pages were original purple mimeograph, and they're slowly fading. Inside I had dates of 7/17/74, and a serial number around 1400. I know I bought mine brand new and had tons of trouble with

Re: [Repeater-Builder] GLB Synthesizer

Any that I used worked great. I had one on my Standard Horizon II 2-meter rig. It was the low profile model with the offset switch. There were two of the regular (separate TX/RX) on a two meter Mastr Pro and on a Prog Line at our EOC. A friend had one of the GLB 2-meter radios and another a
