Hello all,
We will be upgrading our controller to a Scom 7330 soon, and i'm looking
for any unique and interesting ideas for programming, options, etc. Did you do
something odd, different, or just plain cool with your controller, i'd like to
know. These are capable of so much, i'm
Good morning Steve,
You have indeed made a good choice! We installed our 7330 about a month ago
and it hasn't missed a beat yet.
Make sure you take advantage of the custom audio library function. We have
recorded messages with information about the repeater that are played back
when a user
If it were me... I would make 2 C2037 mulitcouple filters. You have the cans
to do it ..
Just takes a few cables and tune it up.. The C2037 ( Sinclair ) will have a 3
db loss.. lots of isolation and be the best bet for you.

Hi Steve. I too will be upgrading to
the 7330 real soon. I will be ordering
it today. Good question.

But the load is connected across the battery.
There is no provision to disconnect the load from the battery.

they are 25 watt UHF narrow band radios. Is there a lookup table
