147.150+
& 52.150 rx
This is my 200' Beatty tower for the 2m and 6m repeaters. The 2 meter is VA3YHD, 147.150(TX), 147.750(RX) with a commercial Sinclair 210-C4 antenna at the top fed by Times Microwave LMR-600. The 6 meter repeater is VE3YHD, 53.150(TX) and 52.150(RX). This site is the 6 meter RX station with 3 phased dipoles at 190' (Decibel Products) and a small beam for the 70cm link.
The 2 meter radio is a commercial GE Mastr II repeater, a 60 watt continuous duty transmitter with 6 can Sinclair pass, reject cavities. It is all run by a Link Communications, RLC-Club Deluxe controller and digital voice recorder. It has two full duplex ports to run both repeaters and can link the two together with the controller. A Radio Shack talking thermometer is interfaced into the controller to give up to date report of the shack and outside temperatures. The receiver pre-amp is an Advanced Receiver Research (SP144VDG). It also homes a 6m GE Mastr Exec II 52.150(RX) and a 70cm GE Mastr Exec II transmitter which sends the 6m RX signal to the TX sight 7 miles to the west for the split sight repeater.
The 6 meter TX sight is the home of the VE3YHD, 444.900(TX), 449.900(RX), 70cm repeater and the 6 meter GE Mastr Exec II transmitter. It is a 104' free standing Trilon tower with a Sinclair 310-C8 antenna for 70cm and 2 phased dipoles at 95' (Decibel Products), for the 6 meter, 75 watt transmitter.
