Hello Tedd
I have been using a master II on 2 meters for a long time with a
controller. It should not be difficult to get your recieve audio to the
transmitter, but it will sound tinny if you take audio from the volume
control( before deemphisis ). the easyiest way is to use the speaker
output... 73 Elmer KB3WG

Subject: [Repeater-builder] Mastr II CAS to PTT (simple)

Hi Guys:
I was playing with my Mastr II on 6 meters, getting ready to
devise a way to get PTT from the CAS line (no controller yet).
I tried a 2n3904, but found that it loaded the CAS line. I then
remembered, from repairing TNC's, that they use a 2n7000 FET.
Knowing that the FET has a very lite loading, I tried it. It
works very well, and absolutely no false triggering.
Hoping that this may help someone, here is the scoop:
The 2n7000 has the pin-outs (with the transistor facing you):
1 2 3
Source Gate Drain
-Take the SOURCE to a good ground
-Take the GATE directly to the CAS line
-Take the DRAIN directly to the PTT line
That's it! Works well, and the CAS line doesn't drop at
all in voltage. Just remember to follow standard "anti-
static" precautions.
Now, if I could find a simple solution for the TX audio, hi!
