To the left is the old GE Master
repeater as of 2002. Four tube transmitter on top, the output tube
cooling fan below it, the solid state receiver below that and the
controller below sitting on the two metered monitor panel. The
duplexers are in the bottom of the cabinet. The Bird meter shows an
output of 3-5 watts - the old radio is on it's last leg. 5-2003 |

To the left is the temporary NEW replacement repeater (black box).
We will be installing our new Vertex 7000 with CAT 300DX controller
soon, but W2IP was so gracious to donate
this Motorola 10 watt repeater to OBRA Oct 2003. We will soon be
removing the old GE Master repeater that has served us well.

Here is the CAT 300 DX controller on top and the Vertex 7000 under
it. This is now or main repeater for the 145.110 machine and we still
have the Motorola 10 watt as a back-up below it. Along with the newer
set of cans we now have a very nice wide area repeater.

May 2004,
The old duplexers come out. Have you ever seen such a mess? These
will go to the 146.940 machine near Bodie Lighthouse after retuning
and repairs by K4HAT. The new Vertex 7000 is now in place and
operating as the 145.110 repeater. |

Here you see the new(er) set of duplexers in place. Right above
them is our backup Motorola repeater that W2IP
rigged for us.
The new Vertex 7000 is not visable in the picture but is above the Motorola.

KB4TOH at the Columbia TV station was
kind enough to retune the cans prior to installation. Wait until he
sees his next project - those old cans! Thanks again Mike. |
