I agreeI have 2 R100's that have been
upfor years and they just keep working. I bought 2as tech
specials for parts and have not used them. If anyone is interested in a
tech special R100 I can make them a deal. They will make the trip to Princeton
Ill hamfest this year.
Have a safe one.
I suppose it has been done ... not by me though.
I have a few of the TPN1110A/B Power Supply here in two forms -
one of them being the 12 volt only version. You have to know what
you are looking for to be able to know what the ancestry is.
You might want to search the swapmeets
did a check of the one I have (new) it is a TPN-1105A that has the battery
hook up for a Micro repeater 75 watt model

Connect your 12 volt battery to the large terminals on the back
through a fuse. Be certain to carefully adjust the voltage out
out of the power supply to keep from boiling away the battery
acid.
Hope this helps,

I guess that you could use a Xantrex C-35 charge controller connected to
supply out to charge (I use one on my solar setup) for smart charging...
then could use a second C-35 as a load controller (they can be
configured for either function)... and build up some sort of mains sensing
relay
Hi i have just obtained what you might call an interface, from e-bay,
it is claimed to turn two Motorola GM300s into a repeater, it comes
with no instructions on how to use it, it has a lable on it marked
CASON, but that is all, has anyone come across this device before, or
no how to use
Hello everyone,
I recently purchased 4-cavity duplexer for a 220MHZ repeater. I'm
thinking about using a GE Mastr II mabile radio for the Rx/Tx part.
I'm very green at this and figuring this out on my own. Do I need 2
Mastr II radios, or will one work? I will modify it for 220 service
once

I just repaired a problem with our 224 Mhz
Repeater System. Let's see how you fair with

Symptom: Repeater audio would fail, not pass
the receiver to the transmitter. Controller CW
and speech audio ok.
Initial Service: Missing Repeat

Sounds like you have another radio getting into the controller. Could be
one of the connections i.e. audio cables is resonant at the offending
radio's freq.

Most likely: Audio from the radio which may be biased at 5, 6 or
10volts is not being passed through a non-polarized capacitor to
isolate the AC audio from the DC bias and is possibly charging
capacitors backwards, causing them to fail/short and pulling the
op-amps or audio switches to a DC
Seems like I remember an issue something like this during the initial beta
testing of Ken's controller... specifically the stamp going wacko and
locking the controller.
I have a tendancy to agree with Matt's analysis regarding the PNP.
You never mentioned a specific type of transmitter... only
You should one need one master II. But it will have to modify for full
duplex so do this as well as tuning it up completely on a vhf freq first
before starting the mods so that you know you are working with a good
unit.
I have been a bench tech for years and that mod it not for someone that

The first controller layout was an S-Com 7k through
one of the original Link RLC-6 boards. The RF was
the famous Spectrum Brand TX RX strips. The power
supply (which also runs three other repeaters) is a
Triplitte.

As an engineer I recomend you go with a ready made 222MHz solution
such as those made by Kevin and Scott at Repeater-Builder.com. It is
a good choice if you do not have all the test equipment and skill to
make one of these run where they shouldn't.
I want to know as well (me - someone who does not use spectrum or
maggiore)

Your issue here is the exact reason I suggest to repeater builders
that have a simple test method planned for the system with one of
the fairly expensive but really un-necessary after-market
controllers.
Have a swapout method planned so when the external controller

Hi Duane,
I am in the process of building a 220 repeater as well, pretty much
from spare parts and whatever I can find. I found an exciter that
once was part of a Clegg FM-76, and some sort of VHF Engineering
receiver kit that was put together decades ago. The exciter runs
around 500 mW
Not bad, not bad
Your close... very close (but no cigar yet)
But not the exact answer I'm looking for...
A clue you ask..? not between the chassis But
don't jump to conclusions, every repeater in the
rack is properly grounded.
The full story first thing in the morning.

Good for commercial stuff, not an option for
a conversion, homebrew or kit-built repeater.
... ie for a repeater, which arrived with no
original mfgrs controller.
Besides, external controllers never die, do
they?

I had an RLC-6. Great little board. Sold it and the 5-K and got the RLC-4.
The link configuration I used prior to the RLC-6 was home brew and worked

If you plan on converting a Mastr II to 220, realize that there is a Segment
of frequencies that WILL NOT WORK full duplex in the same radio set. This is
a VERY similar situation to the UHF Mastr II's.
On a UHF Mastr II it is a well known and documented fact that there are

Interesting questions Dave,
All the electrical equipment is properly grounded
and up to code. Grounds are grounded properly and
the supply cords are complete and include the
ground.
Another last symptom clue. The main problem ends
up being the controller locking up in a looping
reset
