I've done it several times using this method - works every time.
First I use a DOS floppy to FDISK and format the drive in the laptop. This way
the partition table is set the way the laptop BIOS will expect it.
Then I remove the drive from the laptop and connect it to my $40 universal

If the machine has neither floppy or cd then a usb floppy is cheap and

The kicker is the credit card companies will remove the charge from the card
holder and then take the money back from you and your equipment is gone...well
if you had shipped. They approved the card, but then hold the merchant
responsible.

Note that the LDG voter does NOT use TTL voltages on the COR
inputs !
This bit me HARD a few years ago.
They're raw CMOS inputs, with those chips running directly off the 12V (or
13.8 or whatever) supply, i.e. no internal voltage regulation. The high/low
transition points for the input

They type of audio used from the receivers can be just about
any type as long as all of the receivers use the same audio.
Not really... depends on the specific voter circuit.
Audio types that are acceptable are line level and speaker
audio.
Any composite audio within the the level-range

Anyone have a service manual and/or schematic diagram for a Vocom UHF
100 watt repeater amp (model # UVC100-XXRF) that they'd be willing to
scan in and send via e-mail?
Fax also works for me; e-mail off list for my fax number.

What did you do to get the usb port to be recognized? Seems like you
have to have it seen before you could use that.

They where great repeater controllers, I had an Azden PCS-2000 as a
reciever for my first repeater. Had the signal strength lights tied to
the inputs of the VIC-20 and changed the beep depending on signal
strength, kinda KEWL at the time. I wish there was a controller that did
that now -
Thanks
Not at all. Using a PC to control a repeater as complex as the system
here with remotes etc. is a perfectly logical choice and allows
nearly unlimited flexability.
The original controller on the system here back in the mid 1980s was
a Commodore VIC-20 :). Any young'ens remember those?

Guys, what you mentioned below happens every day. The ones receiving the

stoled goods, and they then send the items overseas to the ones that have used
your credit card to get the item.

Any of the controllers with a analog input can do that for
example the Scom 7K can't as it doesn't ave an analog input.
The Arcom 210 can.
There are two ways to read signal level - one is to read the
FM receiver limiter - that varies with signal strength but the

The manual says it doesn't care, but in fact is does.
It is easier for the voter to evaluate the noise, included in

The key there was to have it change the courtesy beep based on signal. 1 short

program the meter faces but I am not sure if it will run the macros quick
enough during the rx signal to change the beep. Also I don't
