[Repeater-Builder] Arcom RC210 PTT LED on all the time

2009-01-23 Thread Glenn Maclean
I am putting a 220 repeater together using an ICOM IC-RPP2210. The repeater is working except the PTT LED remains illuminated all the time. It goes ever so slightly brighter when the repeater is keyed up. I measure 1.56 volts dc at the PTT line between the controller and repeater un-keyed. I

Make the WISP secondary to the primary user which would be your  repeater or any future amateur projects. No interference or they have to abandon the site. Take their money if it works out, lose the money if they cause problems and terminate the contract. Mike WBØGOA --- On Wed, 1/21/09, AJ

Hi, One way to help this is to use a reed relay or opto isolator to isolate the controller lead from the radio ptt. I am guessing that if you disconnect the ptt lead from the controller that the led goes out. The radio ptt circuitry is pulling the ptt lead low enough to draw current through

Paul, I have a set up on my tower like your thinking of doing. I have a 2 meter and 440 machine. The wireless 900 MHz antenna is on the very top position of the tower. ( I let them have the top so they could take all the lighting hits) Under that about 15 feet are the 2 meter and 440 antennas

A few weeks ago, someone had inquired if GE had ever made a True FM MVP. I don't think they ever did, but would there be a market for such? In the past, I built a board that would allow true FM on an Exec II. (VHF or UHF) This was basically an adaptor for a MII PLL ICOM to mount inside the Exec
