[Repeater-Builder] Small Signals

2005-06-08 Thread Dave VanHorn
Does anyone have a pointer to a low level signal source, VHF/UHF? I don't have a service monitor, and I can't really justify one. I occasionally need to tune up a receiver. What I don't have, is a signal source at the 10uV and down level. I've used HTs and attenuators, but the leakage through

Dave, A relatively easy thing you can do is to put a Mastr II exciter in a shielded box with a BNC connector for output. You can easily connect attenuators directly to the box in line to get your weak signals. This works on both VHF and UHF. You can also add a small audio oscillator to
