A few questions, before I offer suggestions. 1. What cards are you using or would like to keep in the Station? 2. Are you doing anything special that requires the Squelch Gate Card? (like Spectra-Tac voting?) 3. Are you opposed to starting over where your wiring is concerned? 4.

Steve, Are you sure this was a Repeater (RT) Station? If you are not sure, it might be that the Station needs to be duplexed, as it's common for the receiver to be disabled when the transmitter keys in a Base Station. Answer these questions and I'll continue. 1. What cards are

I have just found cr 957 on the receiver board still in! Hmm Stupid! I swore I checked it! Now will have to check both receivers! That may be where it all comes down to. This may be a start! Steve Yahoo! Groups Links * To visit your group on the web, go to:

Well Kevin seems the one receiver had the diode removed and I (ASSUMED) that the other one was removed. I do have the ICS controller connected but added a npn transistor between the squelch shunt and the controller as a follower. I have a voltage swing of 1 to 10 volts with the squelch. I
