Re: Avoid Bomar crystals (was) Re: [repeater-builder] Krystaly Rocks for MSR2000

Re: Krystaly Rocks for MSR2000
The last two Bomar crystals I got had problems. I never went back. I can't recall exactly when this was, but it was shortly before International went out. International was my last crystal purchase,

Re: Krystaly Rocks for MSR2000
QuartSLab prices for G.E. xtals went up over 70% in just 18 months, & that was as of a month ago. Maybe they went up another 20% since then? Bob NO6B

Re: How to prevent repeating DTMF remote control commands on the TKR-750?
Years ago I ran a touch-tone function decoder on my Santiago Peak repeater that was fed by pre PL muted audio. No tone at all was required to send it a command. And since it didn't require PL to talk

Re: How to prevent repeating DTMF remote control commands on the TKR-750?

Re: How to prevent repeating DTMF remote control commands on the TKR-750?
Here is something to think about also that may help. Look at the attached file. Rather than using a CTCSS decoder, I used the COR from the control radio. Mick - W7CAT
