Great idea Mike! I can see how the o-ring will keep a little pressure on the
connector threads to keep it from vibrating loose.
Thanks,

Having the phase harness the wrong dimensions may cause this. You can
either rebuild the harness or atempt to lengthen the center conductor
inside the reject capacators.
Are you tuning the new high pass on the old high pass cans and not
flipping them (tuning the new low pass RX on the old high pass RX side)?
Many people think that the TX has to stay the TX even if the repeater
used to be HILO and is now LIHO. High pass should remain high pass and
low pass should r

I suspect the accuracy of the deviation measurement depends on how the scope is
calibrated.
I too have for many years used a scanner as a pseudo service monitor. I have
used both
a calibrated FM signal generator and the local public service channels for

That confirms my belief that e-Bay prices are often created by clueless
buyers and sellers. I bought my IFR AM/FM 1200 manual directly from IFR
(now Aeroflex) for $125, although it was on e-Bay for $200. It's not
unusual for a seller to quote a price that is two or three times the

I did a brief Google search and found several hits. EBay has listings for

This doesn't quite work. The reason is that the IF filters in NBFM
receivers lop off a bit of the incoming signal, resulting in an inaccurate

Look at the following link - this may help you. http://www.kgelectronics.com/
In any event, you could at least send him an email concerning your questions on
the 1100S.

While we are on the subject of service monitors---
An IFR 1100S is available near here---but Im not familiar with this model.

Is there a complete unit description of this model on the Web somewhere?
What are the weak points?What should I look out for?
Many thanks,

I've been looking at getting a better service monitor - I currently have an IFR

Cheep Service Monitor - Take a receiver and an oscilloscope and calibrate
the scope to measure transmitter deviation. Then use an inexpensive
frequency counter. For receiver testing find a surplus generator and use it
with the counter and home made deviation meter (receiver / scope
combination).
Along with a custom built repeater project, how about a custom built basic
service monitor?
The $1500 and up used/new service monitors are a necessity for those in the
business but
for those who only have a need to tune an occasional radio, a less expensive
tool would be nice.
Any suggestions?
The price of Service Monitors is all over the map right now. I
see prices and availability directly related to the state of
the LMR Industry, location and Ebay Action.
There always seems to be a "deal of the day" or two laying
around just out of sight.

Hi,
I have four GE MASTRII UHF repeaters available for sale; removed from
commercial service. Details to be gathered soon but not available
now. I could deliver to Dayton easily; just wanted to see if there's
any serious interest.
Thanks,
