I suppose that it could be used for that also, I have previously only seen it used in base applications but the card is a 2 state device and could control many things. - Original Message - From: Gary Glaenzer To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009

Get Rid of that crap cable your using..  I only use    RG 214, and or superflex for my inter connects  between the repeater, amps in line(power amp/preamps), and the duplexer.  Mosly 1/4 superflex becuase I got lots of it. In a pinch I will use RG-142... Never use that 400 or 9913 garbage..

RG-400 is the same as RG-142 except has a stranded center. It's not crap. LMR400 is crap, but that's not what he said. Chuck WB2EDV - Original Message - From: neal Newman To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 9:23 AM Subject: RE:

TX-RX would be my suggestion. My only pet peeve with TX-RX duplexers that on the duplexers that use garden variety 4 cavities is that they have BNC connectors instead of type N. If you opt for their Type N connector upgrade, you just get three BNC to type N adapters. Their larger

Thanks for the comment to Neal about the cables. RG-400 and 142 are very good, quite common, and very reliable. If you take a look at the specs on 214 and 400 you might note that the 400 is rated att 98% shield where as 214 is at 96% for whatever THAT fact is worth….probably nothing. - Mike

If you can't find the TLN1251, you may find the TLN1250 repeater Control Module. It is the EXACT same board, same frequencies (1550 and 1450), same pinouts, etc, as the PL board, it is just labled different on the front. I think the only difference was the slot you plugged it into, and setting
