Joe Not sure which kind of duplexer Motorola uses in the MTR-2000 but in the MSF5000 they use a Tee Duplexer and a TFE6492A tx filter. In my oponion it works like crap. The duplexer that I like best is the the Cellwave(RFS) or Phelps Dodge style 526. I am using these with 2 UHF C74clb MSF-5000

I have had good luck with the TX/RX brand as well, even at 250 watts with a gasfet preamp. You should have no problem tuning a used TX/RX duplexer from the 450-470 version to the 440 band. I have several of these and they all work good. Leon-N2HLT http://www.expage.com/n2hlt [EMAIL

Joe, I recently installed a complete MTR2000 UHF 100 watt repeater for my employer. The duplexer that came with the station was a Motorola TLE9022, which is a premium version of the RFS/Celwave PD526-4-2. This is a six-cavity duplexer that is specified at 120 dB isolation, minimum, and 1.3 dB

If you want to move a TX/RX used commercial (450-470) duplexer, you should order the cable kit from them to be able to maintain good specs. I moved one from 460.??? to 441.5 and it wouldn't make specs with the shorter harness. I ordered the longer kit and it tuned up great. James Leon

You can also look at Telewave. They make one similar to Sinclair, but less expensive. However, I have yet to see one of the Decibel 450-460 versions that didn't work just fine in the ham band. I'm running that band split and my repeater is on 442.75. No problem at all. Chuck WB2EDV -
