I have several of these very cool, high spec, 1U repeaters available. If you are looking to get into NXDN or just want a high quality repeater this is something to consider. They will easily program into the ham band but will need some VCO tweaking. I can do that for you if you provide RX and TX frequencies. These are only 5W units although a power module swap could make this into a 25W-50W unit. $500 including shipping to lower 48. Thanks!

So after the fiasco with the blue mad cable which never worked for me btw, had a chance to program the mtr2000. It’s an uhf station 40 watt and it was originally all green when I first got it. Read the file and saved it. Now when I program it goes into a boot loop of sort and then eventually goes red. just nice have I managed to get all green but lost it. The error log says I have an error but new to this platform I am unsure.

Friends, I have a gold colored VHF Range 2 Quantar on my bench. I am using RVN5002 Version R14.10.00. My Quantar is currently programmed for frequencies in the mid-150s. After powerup the RX and TX VCOs are happy and the station appears to be green. I did a quick test to see if it would be happy with a TX frequency of 146.895 MHz and a receive frequency of 146.295 MHz. With those frequencies, the TX and RX VCOs failed to lock which was disappointing but not much of a surprise. I wrote the original commercial band code plug back to the unit and it is happy again. I realize we really need the Range 1 VHF equipment, but that seems to be rather scarce. The range 2 equipment is readily available to me. I have noted that may HAMS seem to be using the Range 2 units for pairs above 146 MHz. Four of the five repeaters on our system are above 146 MHz, so I was hoping to use this. Is it practical? I have a fair amount of equipment including an HP8935 and a 8920 and a decent RF lab to work in. Is it safe to assume all the VHF Quantars under $1000 on ebay are Range 2 units. Most of the vendors either do not know or do not want to advertise what they actually have. I could not find even one that claims to be VHF Range 1. Thanks! Jeff KC8VFN

I have a MTR2000 matched with a Arcom controller. I would like to test out the MTR in repeater mode only (without the Arcom). Not only would this allow me to run the MTR without the controller (in case it goes down) but also want to do some audio comparisons. I have tried through the software and have been unable to do this. I am sure that I am just missing a step here or there to make this happen. Could someone please post the steps or point me to where I can read the steps online. So far I have not found this. TIA Robert KD4YDC

So some of you may remember I made a post about a year ago trying to get an external monitor working on my Motorola R2600 service monitor. I had hacked up a VGA cable and soldered it to a DB9 connector and managed to find an Acer monitor model that just plugged and played with the video output of the service monitor. Well, I was never happy with it and it was always fuzzy and RF would get into it occasionally. So I attempted to make a new cable using CAT6 and a DB15 connector. Well, that didn't work at all and my once working monitor said cable not connected. I was stupid and threw away the old cable and now it's gone so I can't go back to a known working cable. After this didn't work, I bought one of those Chinese GBS8200 video converter boards and ran the RGB, ground, and sync lines to it and the board still said no input signal. So now I'm scratching my head, did I do something wrong or did the video output on my 2600 up and die. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on what to do? This is the service monitor I use on my bench and I liked having the big external display to work on things.
