Re: MSR2000 Molex Plug problem
Tin plating was one of the biggest recalls with micor and later radios.? You could order contacts in bulk and replace them as needed.? Big job.? For some radios they came up with gold plated

Re: Occupied bandwidth
I've found that different radios respond differently to high noise levels: some will blow squelch, requiring you to turn up the squelch to the point that once you get away from the noise source, it

Re: Occupied bandwidth
My 2 meter repeater is on 147.015MHz. It's output frequency is close enough to a microprocessors multiple of 1MHz, such as 147.000, that users occasionally have problems hearing the repeater. It

Re: Occupied bandwidth
This happens to me on 6 meters many times when I am near a new style stoplight. The noise shows up on my S-meter indicator as full scale, but no audio and the squelch does not open. It appears that

Re: Occupied bandwidth
Bingo! That's one of the sources. Fire Departments used to complain that they could not hear dispatch when near a stoplight. I am forced to keep my 6-M mobile in tone squelch due to all the noise that

Re: Occupied bandwidth
The Delta I used as mobile for a while had a noise blanker that did not help at all. The noise I'm talking about is continuous - coming from POS terminals, routers, DSL, LED sign boards and lighting,

Re: Occupied bandwidth
Depends on the noise blanker... My 30+ years of low band FM experience found that some noise blankers work better than others.. The lowband Motorola Micor "extender" had a bad habit of breaking into

Re: Occupied bandwidth
I've operated a 6-meter repeater for a couple decades. The thing I've learned is that noise generated near the receiver will desense it a lot. 6-meters now has a LOT of noise sources that were not

Re: Occupied bandwidth - (was Windows 7 config)
I'm curious as to how the above frequencies & deviations were arrived at. Are they supposed to approximate the occupied BW when human speech is the modulating source? This generally does not apply in

Re: Occupied bandwidth
Yeah we'd be much better off with a wider split on 6. I only found one 6 meter repeater in SLC: it had a 1 MHz split & so much desense that it was unusable. Bob NO6B I run one of the 6 Meter repeaters
