[Repeater-Builder] OT: Wanted Parts for Hitachi V660 or V665 O-Scope

2010-06-11 Thread d0ugjensen
Hi, I am trying to fix an old scope, Hitachi V660.
I need the front toggle switch, front trim, and maybe some other parts.

If you know anyone scrapping one of these, or where I can get parts, please 
contact me.

 The M9887 is a tripler transistor in the UHF Mitreks and MSR2000, I need one 
 and wonder if anyone has one (new or used) - I just don't want to buy a 
 Mitrek becasue of the shipping, but the MSR exciter is small enough I would 
 purchase the entire module if someone has one, please let me know There is no 
 known sub so please don't suggest anything else. This is a weird transistor 
 as it has the Emitter in the pin that is normally a Collector pin in similar 
 looking packages.
 Thanks in advance!

2010-06-11 Thread burkleoj
I would look for some of the newer radios like the SM50/SM120 series or even 
newer CDM series of radios from Motorola. The early pc programmed Motorola 
radios (Spectra, Maxtrac, Radius 100..etc)draw a LOT of standby current and are 
not the best option for a solar site. The radios need to be current friendly 
unless you have a lot of battery and solar panels with power to waste.

   I'm searching for a transceiver to put into service for a link on existing

 Q: Please advise on MotorolaSpectra, Maxtrac, Radiusothers...?
 
 Freq: 145-147
 Possible -8 channels
 Mic Audio or TX Audio input
 - RCUR Audio (not affected by the volume control).
 - PTT
 - Logic signal output controlled by RX tone squelch - only i.e. CTCSS.  This 
 will be used to PTT the repeater when the link receives a signal encoded with 
 CTCSS - like 85.4 Hz.
 - Good receiver specs - not easily affected by intermod or adjacent channel 
 interferance.  i.e good selectivity.
 - Transmitter power adjust from 5-25 + watts. 
 
 Would be nice if the unit had a plug or jack on the back with easy access to 
 the first 4 items.
 
 - 11.8 - 14.2 VDC operation remote on standby battery charged via solar. 
 
 - +  5 KHz deviation.
 
 - All Solid State (no Tubes)
 
 Sorry for all the details, but maybe helps define parameters.
 
 Any advice is requested and appreciated.

I'm not familiar with those, but chances are if they are more than 6-8 
years old, the software is DOS, and Windows won't allow control of the 
RS-232 port the way it wants. Hit the 'Start' button, and in the 
shutdown menu, one selection will be Restart in MS-DOS mode. Select 
that, and it will take you to a true DOS environment. You'll have to

You know that com port works? Older machines serial ports were poorly or not 
even buffered sometimes. Also if this is a programming laptop, where you use it 
to program other radios, make sure none of the other programming software is 
tying up that com port while the machine is running.

u.how come the fuse/circuit breaker didn't trip? Sounds like the
problem is a defective breaker to me!

Nope, the breaker did just as the designer intended.  The power strip 
is designed
to carry 7 to 10 amps and the breaker is sized for that.  The MOV went into
avalanche mode and conducted - pulling several amps.  Now do the math,
120v AC times, oh - pick a number - 3 amps, is 360 watts of heat generated
by a device the size of a large disk ceramic capacitor.

You don't think that 300+ watts of concentrated heat isn't going to do some
damage?

And hot enough to melt a plastic housing?  And maybe char an area of carpet?
Or catch the melted plastic on fire? (remember, most inexpensive plastic
housings are made from petroleum-based plastics).
Remember that 3 amps is a lot less than the trip point of ANY power strip fuse
or breaker.  And it could be 5, 10 or more if it's a 15 amp breaker.

shutdown menu, one selection will be Restart in MS-DOS mode. Select 
that, and it will take you to a true DOS environment. You'll have to 
navigate back to the directory you have your program in from there using 
DOS commands.

What radios are you using? and NO you dontwant the PA option on a repeater.
Assuming your using either Maxtrac or Radius series.!!!

Found the problem .I needed to select the ctcss/dcs option .reading ok and 
programed ok .by the way how do we convert the radio to repeater .I found the 
mic and ptt on it but I carn't seem to locate the ctcss decode line so when it 
receives a ctcss signal it controls a line voltage .do we use the horn decode 
and program the option ?

You know that com port works? Older machines serial ports were poorly or not 
even buffered sometimes. Also if this is a programming laptop, where you use it 
to program other radios, make sure none of the other programming software is 
tying up that com port while the machine is running.

I'm not familiar with those, but chances are if they are more than 6-8 
years old, the software is DOS, and Windows won't allow control of the 
RS-232 port the way it wants. Hit the 'Start' button, and in the
