Re: [Repeater-Builder] kendecom repeaters on 220

Why don't you call the factory! They are very helpful if you don't keep them on the phone too long. The repeater was back to the factory more times than I care to mention. The overload problem was reported every time it went back and it always returned working the same way - not fixed. Like

Re: [Repeater-Builder] kendecom repeaters on 220

I reverse engineered the 6709 when I was in High school. It is basically a couple of op-amp sections configured as fairly narrow high frequency band pass filters, an audio to DC rectifier, window comparator and some switching logic to decide whether to be instant closure or switch to 150mS delay.

Doesn't seem un-doable. That chip is almost 40 years old, during the time it was developed, there just cannot have been some magic you can put on a silicon die that we can't replicate with a few more discrete components or Op-Amps today. I smell a winter project coming on :) On Oct 22, 2009

Re: [Repeater-Builder] kendecom repeaters on 220

>>>risking getting flamed<<< The micor squelch is great, but it's not magic. Good amps, good filters, limiters, and a bi-level comparator. I've built a couple... mine weren't as great, but the one on the MSR2000 R1 audio card is Motorola's knock off of their own chip, and pretty impressive.

First of all---Kendecom is an obsolete name. The Kendecom line has been updated/improved and has been relabeled as ACS which stands for "Advanced Communication Systems" which now builds the units. The RF innards are basically the same as the last of Kendecom though improved in some ways-ACS
