True ...
Before 6 meter repeaters became really popular in Oregon - last
several years - DB Products 40-50 MHz cans were going for $25 or
$50 at the local swapmeets.

Before Ebay came on line... people were giving away low

tubes.
Although they still laugh about it... I have the cavities
in service. Well... maybe they were also laughing at

Are you referring to KDTN - Denton Texas?
ERP is only 100 kW ... at 412m HAAT

skipp, I could never get my 6M rcvr quiet on the site you refer to,
remember? despite a pass filter ahead of the rcvr, it was no solution
to on-channel grunge, besides a mix from the CHP LB nearby also. Ah well!

Hi Reid,
It's not the same site you're thinking... but I've been
able to make one play from your old repeater site. But
a lot has changed since you were up there.
You needed to get rid of the silly gear and get a
heavy duty Midland Mobile... :-)
cheers,

One of my first (Hamtronics) 6 meter repeaters
worked fine... same site no duplexer. I had
65 ft antenna separation, a ground plane (converted
CB 5/8 wave) for rx at the top and a low gain
1/2 dipole (converted scanner antenna) at the
bottom.
The elevated site worked an easy 30 mile radius

What I/O split does it run? Here in SoCal we use
500 kHz.
The original hamtronics repeater I put on the air
about 1980 ran the original 600KHz split. I replaced
the receiver with a Midland Low-Band Mobile (works
very well), which scans both the 500 600KHz
Another nice item about living the Pacific Northwest ... the
six meter band plan in western Washington and all of Oregon has
a 1.7 MHz in/output split.
