Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
My point is, where is the energy above 3Khz comming from?? Unless it is background music or road noise.? The audio spectrum from the human voice isn't there.? The idea of getting AM broadcast to

Re: Repeater Horror Stories
On a 'news gathering link' service I assisted running, basically a 150KHz wide FM repeater we found a pirate station trying to use it. We had remote control of the settings and when not using it

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
Flat audio really means no de-emphasis in the RCVR being coupled to the TX with no pre-emphasis. Hopefully with less processing. Of course on a PM radio vs. a FM modulator means something different. A

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
Literally hundreds of 440 repeaters in this area have audio responses approaching 6 kHz, & no one has had to modify their RXs to hear them. Much above, actually. The last squel

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
On the GE MASTR PRO, there are a couple of capacitors you need to remove to get the perfectly audio flat. This applies to the MASTR imperial as well. The caps are C-16 and optionally, C-21. Andy

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
I agree with you, Bob, that most important of anything is a post limiter filter that will roll off as steeply as practical above 3KHz, with a sharp knee so that below say 2800 is not affected. Seems

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
The above two paragraphs contradict each other: if the spectral energy above 3 kHz is "QUITE low", then that spectrum will not be deviating the TX anywhere near 5 kHz, hence the BW will not be

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
I'm 59 & my hearing is fine, yet I also prefer to go higher than 3 kHz on my repeat audio. I maintain several XPR8300/8400 repeaters set to flat unsquelch audio to give them the best frequency

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
Hi Chris, Thanks for your comments and observations. On my repeater... no, I don't run the audio out to 5 kHz, but at the same time I don't have the sharp 2.5 or 3 kHz cutoff that many systems have.?

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
Jim, Thanks for your reply, and no, for some reason I did not see it earlier.? Are pins 9 & 34 a balanced pair?? How are they coupled in so as to have wide band audio? Electronically balanced,

Don't know about you men, but at 79 yrs old my hearing aides make all, especially Motorola speakers sound more intelligible, much less muffled, and because of the aide's high frequency pre-emphasis,

Re: QUANTAR VHF Audio Interface...
I've done flat audio in the pass but always use a RC filter to roll off above 3-4khz...no need to go higher as the energy in that area is QUITE low and not needed..I've made GE MVPs rptrs with flat
