I also run an MSF5000, it does the CWID with no PL which keeps the ID off the link unless someone kerchunks the repeater while it's ID'ing. One way to stop the pulsing would be to set no tail on the repeater, but if you're like me I have at least a 2 sec tail because I don't want the repeater going up and down all the time like a simplex radio, and with no tail you would not hear the repeater come back to you when you keyed it up.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282877"><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282742">Andrew.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282741"> </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282613" class="signature"><br></div><br> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282694" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, Helvetica Neue Light, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282693" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282692" dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282691" face="Arial" size="2"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> R.

<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282695">Our remote base isn’t cutting it. It is half-duplex using a Vertex VX-4200.
We are told that the audio has no bottom, it is sending CWID that it hears from
the repeater (I knew why) and is sending pulses. I didn’t set the hardware or
software up, so as I ask please know that I am at the top of a mountain and the
remote base at the bottom where we have internet. Here’s what we are dealing
with. Our intent is to attach the RTCM at the repeater site once we have
internet up there. Until then...</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282700"> </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282701">The DB-15 on the back of the Vertex VX-4200 is *almost* capable of being
used as a repeater controller output.</div>
<div> </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282702">Pin 1 = TX Audio</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1433571713052_282703">Pin 2 = RX Audio</div>
<div>Pin 6 = External PTT</div>
<div>Pin 9 = COR (see notes)</div>
<div>Pin 15 = GRND</div>
<div> </div>
<div>COR is achieved by creating voltage divider using other pins. Only then
will one get COR but not COS. PL will only make it to the speaker on the front
panel and rear jack. PL IS NOT on pin 2. Pin 2 is squelched but when it receives
the repeater’s built-in controller (a Motorola MSF-5000). Every time our CWID
goes off our remote base sends it to everyone.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here are the problems. First, we’re told that we are committing link abuse
by “jumping” or key clicking every time someone else transmits on a node our
node replies. I don’t know what I am talking bout at this point. <img data-id="a18676e7-831c-3606-381d-971c8ad6125e" class="yiv1169983959wlEmoticon yiv1169983959wlEmoticon-smile" style="BORDER-TOP-STYLE:none;BORDER-BOTTOM-STYLE:none;BORDER-RIGHT-STYLE:none;BORDER-LEFT-STYLE:none;" alt="Smile">:-)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Next I am told that our audio has no bottom end. No bass. The pin that
we’re able to pull from is the only source that we’re aware of and is the pin
used by Vertex to send audio to their VRS (mobile repeater).</div>
<div> </div>

<div> </div>
<div>I’ve been told to turn PL off and let the repeater pass through the tone.
But please remember that pin 2 has no PL on it. Only the front panel speaker and
rear speaker jack audio are muted by PL.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The easiest solution may be a GM300 but I cannot get the darn software on
our old 386 laptop. The floppy decided to only read those created by itself.
We’re puckered up on this one.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Suggestions are appeciated.</div></div></div></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>App_rpt-users mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org" href="mailto:App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org">App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org</a><br><a href="http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users" target="_blank">http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users</a><br><br>To unsubscribe from this list please visit <a href="http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users" target="_blank">http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users </a>and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
