[Repeater-Builder] TNC Carrier Detect, DCD

Best I recall there was a choice between hardwiring COR to the TNC or using internal Data Carrier Detect for the TNC to recognize activity on the radio channel. This was an input signal from the radio to the TNC. Way back whenSteve NU5D Nate Duehr wrote: > Nate Bargmann wr

Re: [Repeater-Builder] LTR Rocks !

. De-Centralized trunking lets mobile units decide when to transmit. LTR does not have a provision for the mobile radios not to transmit on a busy channel. In centralized trunking, the site orchestrates mobile transmissions. But I may be wrong, Steve NU5D Jim wrote: > Steve S. Bosshard (N

Wonder how much of the delay is inherent in the subscriber units, and how much is attributed to the repeater ? Measure response on simplex, then through a repeater, unless of course, these ducks aren't repeaters, then it won't matter. Coffee time, Steve NU5D /K5CTX B, Temple, Te
