2175 Hz Voting tone encoder Board 9
Hi to All, I am replacing a Failling MSR2000 VHF 100 Watts by a Tait T800 series 2 VHF 100 Watts. The receiver of the MSR is driving a Sectra-Tac board in a voting system. The new Tait Repeater as a RX Line out like the MSR but no 2175 Hz encoder. Before I take out the encoder board in the MSR and fit it in the T800... I was wondering if there is a aftermarket source for 2175 hz voting encoder board ? Or if any member did this modofication before? Best 73 Carl VA2CMB

I am relisting this with a bit more detail. I have a used but like new very lightly (less than 5 hours)Kenwood Nexedge NXR 1800 403-470MHz repeater available for sale.

The repeater has been in a climate controlled and dry environment (approx. 65 degrees with approx. 25% humidity). This will have the mounting kit, repeater, power cable, box and Kenwood user guide. It has also been mounting in a repeater cabinet with plenty of cooling, and dust free. I will offer free programming for analog operation. I will ship for $1,550.00. See below for more details on this repeater. I do have another of this exact model that I am keeping, just don¡¯t need 2 of them.

Quantar Extender Cables 12
Are there extender cards or cables to aid in Quantar module troubleshooting and tuning? Other than some content on the W9CR website, which was very useful, I have not been able to find a thing. It seems like I may end up having to use a stripped down Quantar Chassis for this purpose. Thanks! Jeff KC8VFN

Help with out of range programming a Motorola GP300 11
I was recently given a pair of GP300 HTs and am trying to get them reprogrammed for some new hams in the area. I have the programmer and RSS and can download the codeplug. But, these are 398-443 MHz RX radios (P94YPC20C1) and won't allow me to put the Amateur repeater frequencies in. I've tried the Shift key trick when entering frequencies to no avail (have used this successfully on Radius and GM300 models). Even tried using a Hex editor and directions I found here to alter the ID bit associated with the model. Neither works. Any thoughts on what to try next? ron

CM300 radio settings 2
Having some issues with my CM300 I bought a RB RIM Maxtrax USB and I've tried everything. The RB RIM shows up on the USB for the raspberry pi with allstarlink 3 but I can't get the raspberry pi to make the radio TX or RX. I've matched what was on the layout on the website for both the radio and the pi . Any help is appreciated.

Allstar Running on a Dell Thin Client 2
I am looking to network a UHF repeater into a local Allstar network using a Dell thin client. Whilst I understand that remote shut down of the repeater can be achieved within the software, I also need the ability to shut down a second unconnected transmitter This requires a pair of ¡®closing relay contacts¡¯ I really these too would be operated by DTMF Any ideas please? Thank you

TE Systems? 7
Does anyone know if TE Systems is still in business? I sent them an email last Monday asking about pricing and availability of two six meter repeater amplifiers and have not received any response. I'm looking to purchase a 150 to 300 watt amp. Has anyone on the list had first hand experience with TE Systems repeater amps? Thanks, Dan WD4LUR

Echo on the FM of my mmdvm
Hello everyone, I'm using the bi7jta card for GM340 repeaters. It works well on FM. I have two problems: I get echo when users speak, as if they're using an echo microphone. The second problem is Beacons are leaving intermittently, very close together, and trigger the CTCSS on my radios. Do you have any ideas? Thanks in advance. F4GIX

SLR5700 repeater 5
What is the value on the used market for a Motorola SLR5700 repeater removed from a working trunk system in excellent condition? Only reason for change is system does not meet the needs of the user and a system to meet their needs is being installed. Hoping to recover some of their investment. Thank you Roger

Kenwood TK-6110 Programming 3
I have a Kenwood TK-6110 that I am putting on 6 meters (almost). I have a modified version of the KPG-59D software to increase the frequency range to 54 Mhz for 6 meters. Everything works except for the sensitivity setting in test mode. I am attempting to set the value to 255 at 54 Mhz, 215 at 50 Mhz and 135 at 42.00 Mhz. I have changed the test channels to 42, 50 and 54 Mhz and everything looks normal but all 3 of the values get the same value as the last entry. I would like to have the front end tuning tracking as I have some Rx only channels in the 42 Mhz range. I also don't understand what the low, center and high tabs do on the sensitivity menu? Hopefully someone in the brain trust can give me a nudge in the right direction? Jack K6YC

Does anyone have a northcomm quantar ecm?
Anyone have one they are not using that they would sell cheap along with the program cable? I also have a ics quantar pi zero for sale. It's new. I want to go a hardware route vs pi zero route. I just need remote disable and courtesy beep. The northcomm will fill that bill just fine. I'm not a pi expert and can't get the ics configured properly.

THREAT TO 222-225MHz Spectrum Getting Worse with additional licenses issued outside of California 17
I know I've written about this before but since then the threat has increased to the 222-225MHz Spectrum. The FCC has issued additional licenses to the Company "Chaos" with high powered Radar Testing in the spectrum. The first experiences we had with this was in Hermosa Beach area of Los Angeles County. Now they have new test beds in the following areas: FCC licenses issued to Chaos Industries. Please see the attached documents. WY9XPE - (222-225 MHz) Camp Atterbury, Indiana WY9XYL - (222-225 MHz) MCAS Yuma, Arizona WY9XYM - (222-225) MHz) Irwin National training Center, California WY9XWP - (228-233) MHz Desert Center, Riverside, California Apparently, these are in addition to their existing licenses, These licenses are footnoted that they must cease immediately if they cause interference to Amateur Radio operations. The FCC continues to authorize non amateur radio operations in amateur radio spectrum. If operations are of a temporary, proof-of-concept nature only and in low population areas, perhaps we could just wait. The problem it brings is precedence, which is how many mechanisms of law work. The precedent set giving way to a case being made that they have greater need for the spectrum than we, and an opportunity for the FCC to auction or otherwise reallocate the band. The problem we have, how do we 'defend' against this in these sparse population areas where 220 amateur activity is very low? We can mobilize folks as we have in our local area, but there's a whole interior of the nation where overall use is light. Especially for an off-beaten-path band like 220. This is a strategic threat requiring a strategic response. Remember, these transmitters may not be near you, however if a repeater input can see the transmitter its ability to receive a weak signal is degraded. I urge ALL repeater owners to look at these locations, if in anyway you know repeater owners who may be impacted make them aware of this threat. Today its the 220 MHz spectrum, tomorrow its 1.2GHz, 420-450MHz spectrum or even 144-148MHz, don't think companies like Choas are not thinking of that? Remember, its not a Right, its a Privilege that we can use the spectrum we do and we will have to fight to keep it. Thank you, John N. Hudson III, WA6HYQ President of the 220 Spectrum Management Association President@... iPhone:6192648934

19 inch rack mount AC power strip 14
Hi, me again! Lol. Does anyone have a power strip that is 19 inch rackmount with about 8 to 10 outlets which is AC with surge protector? I have one but it came with the rack that I bought in the switch got destroyed so looking to get one to replace it. Don't know what happened to the switch, but it wouldn't even move. Thought there was a cover over the switch is what someone told me, but I got the piece out and ended up being the switch with wires coming out of the back. If no one has one of these AC power strips for a rack, any good recommendations? Chad Nelson WI9HF/WRPL979 Janesville Wisconsin 608-754-8671 Send from my spectrum iPhone 16.
