In the building and testing phase of a system, two power supplies are
being used. One for the power amp and one for the repeater/exciter, fan,

culprit in why some sort of oscillation or cycling of the repeater goes on,

1.2hgz machine on the air in the mid to late '90's. He first bought an
AUSTIN brand fiberglass radome antenna, and as I recall it was in the

someplace to get a 220 duplexer tuned in the TAMPA area. Having not much
luck I contacted a local MOTOROLA shop and paid $95 for the service. The
