WR back on the air.

4/1/2017

0 Comments

 
WR is back on the air in fixed FM mode only because we have removed the ADR interface to be sent back to the manufacture to check.
While we were there we did some maintenance and found that there is a fault on the TX cavities causing a 4:1 VSWR!! So we have disconnected the TX cavities and we are running with a band pass filter and the RX cavities only.The RX cavities are ok but will not filter all of the TX signal hence it is a bit noisey.
​The repeater is also running on low power to try and keep the interference between TX & RX to a minimum. 

It may take up to 2 months to sort out the issues but hopefully get it done sooner. But at leased we have got her back on air.
