Re: trying to read data on a kenwood 851 repeater


 

I changed frequency to 442.100. But not sure about the crackle. I tried it here and didn't notice any noise on RX.

Give me a call later on tomorrow, since leaving soon.

The repeater has a noise on receive like bacon frying. Not sure what is causing that. I can give you a call if you want to listen to it. kind of a crackling noise. I haven't tried adjusting anything yet, but sensativity is poor even on the
151.1875 frequency.

That's good to know thanks. Hopefully my little laptop comes by Wednesday because tentatively planning on going back to the site in portage on Thursday to visit the lady Buggs, well OK not really, but putting up the Lincoln tenor for the repeaters and figuring out what is going on with my DNC. I turned it on and it gives me a little Gibberish character, but then I turn it off and back on again and then it works. Might have to just flush the whole TNC and start over. Would like it just to power up and work because if there's a power failure and that TNC comes back on then it won't power up correctly and I'm 70+ miles away from the site with no transportation.

That was one of my questions I actually had and you might have just
answered it for me, but, does your Windows XP box work with the KPG
91D software?

Thanks all for your help. Good to know about the fuse.

See Chris's comments about the fuse.

BTW, the only reason to use the mic jack is if you're updating
the
firmware (or don't want to otherwise with the rear panel
DB25).

Good to hear you're good to go
