WRFV510

would i loose anything by running a MJF-1702C switch off my Motorola XPR5550e? I can run one side of the switch to the antenna and the other to home made dummy load. i can just switch to the dummy load when i want to use the cb. or should i even bother? id have to put a mini UHF to SO259 adapter o the motorola with a RG8x 1' jumper to the switch then a pl259 to a female mini uhf adapter to antenna. i already had a mini uhf male connector put on my Laird RG8x NMO roof mount. Sound like its not worth it if i will loose strength. Antenna will be 25" away from each other. Id say a Motorola XPR5550e was quality equipment.

its not TPL frequency because that only goes up to 255Hz. this is DTCS code 315, DTCS Rx code 465, t(hey go up to 754), cross mode DTCS->DTCS, DTCS Pol NN, in CPS i can put it to DPL and then i can enter DPL codes of 315 and 465. i bet thats it.

thanks

thank you. im a noob playing with pro stuff

I have some Baofeng BF-888s I bought preprogramed from the repeaters owner. so I have Chirp. I just bought a Motorola XPR-5550e and want to program it to the repeater. in chirp the tone mode is set to cross. there is no cross on Motorola CPS V16. any idea how i set it. I also have a Motorola XTS3000 that is already set up for the repeater so i dought its not possible to figure it out.

i run the cb to see whats up the road so AM 19. it is a 980 so i do have SSB and the clarifies open.

i need the CB for communicating on the highway. GMRS will be for family. out on the atvs or any place. i can see my local repeater from my house. elevation almost 1700ft with the repeater being on a 150' tower. my dad is 20 miles away as the crow flies and is at 1700' too. he can hit the same repeater with a 5w BF-888 5X5. its sweet . One bad thing is were we live is very hilly. so the signal goes in and out. so im getting a Motorola XPR 5550e option board enabled with the CPS and wide band EID. Im going to check out a Laird BB4503S 3db gain and a Laird BB4505CR 5db gain and see what one works best. both roof mounts with RG8X. Im doing the mobile in the truck

they will be 25" apart. and ya might as well run 4 watts. never got anyone to come back to me over 6 miles away anyway.

MFJ-874 covers 1.8MHz- 525MHz has ave and peak power too. https://mfjenterprises.com/products/mfj-874

I was told that my CB would burn up my Motorola 5550e's front end if i didnt protect it. What would I need to protect it? disconnecting the coax is not a option.

good to hear. I thought i had this set up for instant messaging when someone replies.

check out www.attica575.com. this repeater will reach from buffalo to Hunt (the other side of Letchworth state park) that i have known. theirs alot of repeaters in WNY but this is the best.

dont see anything on here about it. about to buy one. im getting the csp and wide band key
