Has anyone been able to run a Midland 71-0150RC or Sierra STRT50C low-band
commercial repeater on 6m? Both of these repeaters give 50 MHz as their
upper band edge, but I wonder if that can be bypassed so that operation up
to 53 MHz can be achieved. The repeater must be capable of 40-60 watts RF

Dear Nate,
They are TETRA & TETRAPOL systems. It seems like our Duplexer that is causing
the problem, as the TETRA system bypasses the Combiner, the noise is removed.
At first, we were thinking it is the heat problem, but the system is installed
in an air-condition room at 25 deg C, and the Dup

88240 is an RG-58A/U TYPE cable which is plenum-rated and has FEP dielectric

An elephant repeater receives further than the repeater

An alligator is a cayman or crocodile like creature that has a massive mouth
and marginal ears. The implication is that the repeater talks better and or
farther that it hears or receives.

Most duplexers and multi-couplers that I have come across are from either
