Toro VHF install today &#8211; added a 2M repeater (Kenwood TKR-750) on 147.270 CTCSS 94.8 with Arcom controller and an additional power supply. 4-cavity Telewave duplexer. Installed 2-bay VHF dipole array on bottom half of side mount where UHF(WB6ECE 441.300Mhz) repeater had been. Fed with RFS 7\/8&#8243; line, grounded top and bottom, with Polyphaser at entrance.&nbsp;It is on the air, but receive performance is much worse than expected. We suspect it may be caused by the&nbsp;helical resonators being miss tuned in the repeaters receiver.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next visit to Mt. Toro we will: install the VoIP link controller for the 2M repeater, replace the temporary two power supply situation with a single more efficient supply (possibly with a bit of backup battery to cover the generator start interval) and install a DC distribution panel to clean up all the DC wiring. And diagnose the poor receive performance of the new repeater.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mt.
