  1. I have what you need, gotta figure out how to get the to you. I don't think we are allow to use this site for file drops
  2. are we allowed to drop CPS files here
  3. what model are you they?
  4. yup, important part hah.. mine is attached to one side of the can. I would have preferred inside but it didn't fit.
  5. my portable RV repeater built with two Maxon 8402 radios fitted into an FAT-50 Ammo can can reach 85-90 miles with a J-Pole at higher elevation. Doesn't do so well around wooded hilly areas. These radios don't require a controller and I draw power form my RV which is on solar so the radios fit into the can nicely with lots of extra room. The can is vented and even fitted with a fan that kicks on via a heat sense controller inside. Pretty simple arrangement. When I park at Lake Crawley the repeater actually get a lot of use by boaters and campers and it does in other areas as well.
  6. I'll never pay to use a GMRS repeater. I was a member for of WIN Systems for one year. That was kind of cool, their network spans pretty much nationwide and it was fun connecting to friends back east and northern Califailure. Been thinking of signing back up with them.. At least you get something for your buck with that radio network.
  7. yea,, kinda of where I'm from..
  8. I never could figure out why someone would spend thousands of dollars putting up dozens of GMRS repeaters, charge a fee that attracts very few on a service meant for family and friends. But at the end of the day, there is nothing that says you can't.. There are no fee based repeaters in my area. One repeater owner here has multiple repeaters on an awesome mountain top that can almost reach God. He is on BLM property on a nice tower and operates an impressive communications business. Pretty sure he writes off the GMRS and HAM portion as a community service. I'll bet ya he does a lot better taking advantage of tax laws than he would at charing an access fee that few would pay. If I were in his shoes I would be dong the same.
  9. Im not familiar with your CPS but looks like (based on your Provo UT repeater display) you need to set ch 26 for 131.8 PL to your 462.625. (input and output) your ch 27 is running no PL tones meaning the repeater would have to be running no PL tones.
  10. Like Leo says, you can get a new Duplexer tuned to your specific frequencies for a few dollars more.. You'll have to get that one professionally tuned and expect to spend $50-70 with shipping to get it done. That puts you in the neighborhood of $200 bucks. Check out the duplexers on BuyTwoWayRadios.com You may want to study up on a better understanding of repeaters.. Learning is cheap and fun and defiantly never stop.
  11. that's a good one... I don't have any vinyl left in my collection but I still have most of my CD's and reals of tape left. I bought HD CD's whenever I could. IMG_3374.HEIC
  12. try unplugging the external speaker when using the PA. Pretty sure you will hear the PA.. If that works for you, you might think of installing an audio switch to toggle the external speaker while using the PA. Also, Steve suggested a PA amplifier. Some radios don’t have enough ump to drive a PA megaphone. If you don’t think it is loud enough then follow Steves suggestion.
  13. When i bought my Pioneer i was weighing it with the Marantz 2270. It was a tough choice but IMO the Pioneer sounded better and came bundled with a decent turntable at the time. The Maranz will pull more money on the used market. Everyone wanted Marantz back in the day.. My Pioneer as obviously served me well.
  14. They don't make Stereo Amps like they use to. I still have my Pioneer 9800 purchased in 1978. Although its currently packed away in a orginal box along with a pair of HPM 100 speakers and other gear everything still works.. My grandson is building a stereo listening room with today's junk, someday im gonna surprise him and gift him with the best of the best.
  15. The PA audio is suppose to come out of the external speaker. I'm not sure what you mean by 'horn'. If you mean a PA megaphone speaker, that needs to be plugged into the external speaker. If you want to use both you'll have to install a secondary audio switch. Also, if your Midlan is prior to 2024 then you will need to update the firmware to utilize the PA and you can do that via software/instructiopns from their website

  17. I had Pacific Bell (AT&T). I remember the DTMF coming into play around 78ish in my town. Also remember when directory assistance was free and the dating game we played on the time and time line. That worked by hollering out your phone number for about 15 seconds after the announcement (apparently the time and temp line was like a party line). Others on the line would pick ut up and call back. I actually got a few dates back then and still talk with one girl I met on that cazy line.
  18. its built into my phone (iPhone) and works off unlimited data with T-Mobile. 3 phones with unlimited phone/data $120 month.
  19. in 1990 I was paying about 85 month/1000 minutes that included contentential long distance on a Panasonic Portable/Mobile phone. The phone w/mobile install was $600 bought from 'The Good Guys'. Service was decent in most cities but went to hell the moment you got 40-50 miles away from any city. Also had a Commercial/Ham radio with audio patch that had much better range than the cell phone.. That radio was also around $600.
  20. 10 a month is nuts, I'm too cheap too.. In fact I'm about ready to dump Starlink which i use in my RV. The service is $125 month w/Roaming and lately its come to a screeching crawl. Streaming TV is becoming almost impossible, especially the farther north you go. My T-Mobile Hot Spot has been working out better in most areas.
  21. i had one back in 2001,, Why i sold it, i'll never know
  22. Talking about Starlink, anyone with Starlink experience connect issue lately. The last couple of days i have trouble connecting while traveling up in northern Calif. I'm on the roaming plan and never had issues over the last 3 years until now. Also streaming very slow, about 50MB where its always been 250-400 MB.
  23. I've been traveling on the road so haven't been able to log in much. I read your first comment during a lunch break in Bishop and missed that you said you were programing an Analog UV32. My radio and software is for the DMR UV32. Sorry about that. But in any case, i don't see any reason why the DMR CPS would not program your UV32. The software is free so i would give it a try.
  24. O.K.. I was able to remote into my computer. You can program P1 P2 under Key Function (left menu), you'll see the options down towards the bottom of the Key Setting pop up. Hope that helps
  25. im not at my program computer but i seem to remember that parameter can be programed under the radio function tab.. I'll check that this evening .
