HELP WITH SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY
Hi All,
I recently purchased a Switching power supply. It was rated at considerably more amperage then most of the REGULAR power supplies I had seen, and was more affordable, so I had to buy it. I have since learnt that switchers often cause some sort of interference, especially at the VHF frequency range. I have also heard that there is a way to either elimate or considerably reduce this interference. Does anyone out there know how to accomplish this, or know where I might be able to get that info. I have yet to attempt to use the unit, but I would like to be prepared incase I need to do something. Thanx in advance for the help Mike |

WANTED:ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE FOR MX SERIES PORTABLE
Hi All,
I am looking for the tuning procedure for the transmitter in the MX series of Motorola portables. I have a service manual, and I can't seem to find the transmitter alignment procedure, although I have found the reciever alignment procedure. If you have it, could you please either E-Mail me a copy, or let me know and we can work something out about copying and snail mailing, or faxing it. Thanx in advance. Mike |
Re: Repeater Antennas
Randy Leval
I agree regarding the Decibel Products folded dipole being a great antenna. Yes
they dont have one designed for 440 but the 450-470 version works fine. I've been running the 8 folded dipole DB products antenna for 12 years now on my repeater 442.750 repeater AH6GR/R. Its very well built. It is a great choice....the only draw back it that its expensive but definetely worth the money. 73 Randy Justin Reed wrote: From: Justin Reed <jreed@...>-- See Randy's ("The Guru") Personal Homepage at |

Repeater Antennas
drreality
Hi Guys: I am working on putting a repeater together with a few other
folks help, and I am in need of a reccomendation of a good UHF repeater antenna. I have seen a few of the DB products antennas and called them about an antenna that would work for amateur UHF purposes. They informed me that they do not build an antenna for the Amateur UHF frequencies. I would like to stay away from the fiberglass antennas also. The local repeater here used one for a while but the noise buildup sometimes made the repeater almost useless to use. The frequency for this new repeater is on 442.700 Mhz. Any help you folks could reccomend would be appreciated. Terry KF0AO |
(thanks) coating Al+++
Mike Hamann
Hey there!
Many well thought out reply posts to my query "what to coat Aluminum (metal) antennas with". Condensing the solutions offered: 1.) (solvent-thinned) rubberized "tool coating" 2.) Liquid RTV (solvent-thinned RTV) 3.) auto body "chip guard" plastic coating 4.) maybe stainless steel antennae? 5.) epoxy (aircraft) paint 6.) exterior acrylic (clear) 7.) Sherwin-Williams polyurethane enamel (per Celwave) Now, those all look viable; Now I have to calculate which one(s) will cost me the least $$ and be the easiest to apply. I think I can handle this part of the equation <g>. Thanks to all who participated!! Mike, wb6csh@... |

From: drreality <drreality@...>The decibel products folded dipole antennas cut for the 450 to 470 MHz range work just perfectly in the 440-450 ham band. My repeater is living proof. Others in my area are using the same thing. They are fairly broad banded, and they work fine. I replaced my so-called diamond X500 HNA antenna with "11 dB" of gain with a DB products antenna with 6 dB gain and i actually gained a field strength of 3 dB. Go figure, i guess.

That's odd. I've always usedThats what I have in my bookimarks. It puts you directly on their catalog page. Mind you that bookmark is 3 years old. We use the RLC audio delay boards. The audio delay boards doesn't address the problem of weak and fluttery signals. So far we use the audio delay boards here in Calgary. We use them on our RLC-2A. We also use a few RLC-4s Walter VE6ANI Home Page: |

This is the codes you requested for the Canadian Marconi Marcom 5 VHF Mobile. ETS/CTCSS requires an add on board that plugs into the 28 pin header located just behind the head. Two types of ETS boards are available, a single tone and a multi-tone board. The Multi-Tone board is controlled by the 1/10 buttons next to the mike jack. Hope this helps.
