I took a quick look at them, and what stands out like a sore thumb is 1.6 db
insertion loss with a 150 watt power rating. That means they'll be
dissipating close to 50 watts in such a small package. Doesn't give me a
warm and fuzzy feeling...

I see what the sales flyer says, but the response plots show no real
bandpass action. Indeed, the plots depict exactly how a notch-only duplexer
responds. In fact, the plots look faked, IMHO. I have tuned many duplexers
over the years, and none of the plots look so "perfect." If Fiplex

Yes, my error.
I had the old DB products on the brain.

The spec sheet shows them to be bandpass/band reject.
From the document:
These duplexers utilize six high Q (helical)
resonant cavities, interconnected in a band pass-band
reject configuration which allows close spaced
transmit-to-receive frequency operation.

Jim,
I have no experience with such a small duplexer for low-band, since 6m
repeaters in my area (Central California) have a 500 kHz split- which
requires more isolation than a compact duplexer can muster.

They are notch only devices and I've used "similar" devices using that
helical design for years.
If you don't have a lot of noise on/around site washing over your receive
freq, they will get the job done.

You might make if from a hilltop. The Limestone 6-meter machine that's linked
in is down temporarily for some lightning repairs. That one is closer to you
and you'd probably get into it if it were up.

Good thoughts Chuck.
I never thought about the two patterns.
I have to check and make sure I have your Freq. programmed into my mobile.

I'd certainly try single site since you've got the reject filters. It's
certainly easier to manage than split site. With split site, in the hills we
have around here, you are going to get two different coverage areas - one for
TX and another for RX. If it were flatter, it wouldn't make a big dif
Hi Again Eric,
When you get a chance will you look at these duplexers and give me your
opinion?

The duplexer I got with the repeater is the Model DHV-0544.( THE 533 has
been discontinued)
The way I am reading their specs it is 90 dB at 1 MH
Paul,
If I read your message correctly you had the receiver set to open on PL
only. Had you tried using PL AND CSQ (also called AND squelch) as the
opening requirement?

Anybody have a manual for a Maxon TR-4800?

Jim,
A low-band repeater with a flat-pack duplexer having 90 dB of isolation?
That's amazing! My low-band repeater uses four 12" diameter cans that each
stand about five feet tall.

That's why base stations have 250 - 300w where mobiles are 100.

My experience with 6-FM is that you are going to have a much harder time
hearing the repeater than getting in to it. The noise encountered in a mobile
environment desenses your receiver. There are exceptions to this, but as a
general rule it's true. So, some loss on RX isn't necessarily g
Hi Eric,
First thanks you for pointing me to the manuals and Don for the NHRC Tuning
site.
Eric the combination numbers are MC74AAU33A. They came from a trucking
company and I think they are on 47.XXX. I am taking over the Wellsville
53.090 Repeater as the original owner is re-locating. He has a cu
Hi Tim
glad you sorted it,they do work very well as a lot of 6mtr rptrs
here in the UK use them, I had no success, big problem. I checked
it with my analyser and the isolation was rubbish at 30dB, so I binned

Hi steve, got it figured, tnx to Bob (wa1mik).
I didn't catch the part in his article that said

Actually, with regards to a D-DSTAR signal opening up an analog receiver set to
decode only PL, it can happen. I had an analog repeater (Motorola) co-channeled
with a D-STAR repeater. The users of the D-STAR repeater would in fact open up
my repeaters receiver and pass through. I'm trying to rec
Hi
OH right, one theory out the window then.
I made one but it was very poor so I have on
order from Procom a real 50Mhz duplexer.
