I have converted quite a few DB-224 antennas that were originally used in the
155 mHz range down to the 146 mHz range by adding a folded aluminum tubing stub
to the top and bottom of each element. Using the folded tubing from a defunct
TV antenna I flatten about 3 inches on one end and then

There is no doubt in my mind that you have been able to improve the performance
of a 150-160 MHz DB224 in the 2M band with your mods and I have read of your
efforts several times in the past, however the additions I have suggested and
have developed, do not in any way involve changes to or
The other day some of us were discussing replacing the controller in one
of our local repeaters. It is presently an NRHC-4. While throwing ideas
around someone suggested why not just use an old PC and sound card. Then we
could add bells and whistles as needed. This got us to thinking that
I have used echstation for a low level crossband repeater from the house. it
worked great for my needs. It will do a few things that are desired.

You may want to look into the Allstar Link project or similar that are
based on Asterisk as the core system. A $10 sound interface from ebay
can be used as the controller in connection with a receiver,
transmitter and a PC running the sw which can be downloaded as a self
installing ISO

Doug,
Which ebay sound interface do you recommend for app_rpt, and is there a good
site showing the mods necessary for the conversion of said usb device?

Most of the USB sound fobs that specify Surround sound 7.1 are based on
these chips or a ss part number chip. Most of the vendors are specifying
the chipset in sound fob auctions as it is important.. I did not have a

After reading the subject you probably realized I know nothing about repeaters.
Our club has an issue with the phone line, that being money. Long story short,
can a cell phone be hooked up to a repeater, in place of having a phone line,
for use in controlling the machine?
thanks...

I know its been a long time since I first posed the question on what might be
causing the noise we were experiencing after being hit by lightening. After
many trips to the Technical shop for testing, we replaced the repeater ( was a
vertex 5000, now a Icom ur2000) and are in process of checking
Rich, you didn't mention the antenna, cable and jumpers. What did you do

Are these pass-reject cans with capacitors that might have been damaged?
Matthew Kaufman
I bought a set of cans that took a lightning hit years ago on my 2 meter
repeater. They are older Phelps Dodge cans. The finger stock was OK,
but the tuning rod had arched. I retuned the low pass cans to high pass
and vice versa. They have worked fine ever since, but I do run them at
low
Since your chief complaint is noise, you need to define the noise. Noise
in repeaters can be from MANY other sources besides duplexers. Sure your
cans *might* be at fault, but if you're not having desense issues, I
would not suspect them right off.
Is there anything loose on the tower? What
Do you get the same crackling noise with the duplexer attached to a
dummy load? a ground mounted antenna with different feedline?

Yes. But, you may have reliability issues in times of heavy traffic
(such as bad weather, natural disasters, Etc.)
It will also be a poor choice for autopatch for the same reason.
But, it can technically be done. There are devices to connect a standard
phone to a cellphone. I would search eBay
Why not just use a 440 control receiver?

More reliable, but from far fewer locations due to limited coverage of
the receiver (vs a nationwide Cell network) and the mandate of having a
440 HT or mobile on you (as opposed to a cellphone which is much
smaller). I would also have to say the cell is more secure.

In many cases, they charge you business class rates, so yes, Cell
service might be significantly cheaper - especially when you consider
any log distance charges for autopatch users.
And yes, we went to the PUC for our state - they upheld the commercial
rate policy of the phone company.
