Hi Wade, Nice drawings. I would suggest a 47K resistor from the transistor base to ground. I have had several occasions where the input to the base floated (neither pulled high or to ground) and it caused the transistor to operate erratically. 73, Tony VE3DWI Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder

I bought a bag of 2N6426 Darlington Pair transistors some time back. These work nicely for COS pick off because they do not load the existing circuit very much. Say you have a point that goes between 1/2 volt and 5 volts for a cor source, (it will take around 1.4 V to turn on a dp cause of
