HUB END Hub/Spoke or Star system

Pros – Simple, economical system for a general area. – Short key up time. – End sites utilize simple transceivers rather than full duplex radios with duplexers. – Link repeater can also be used as a normal repeater. – Conserves frequencies for links (only 1 pair used). Cons – Cannot be easily expanded beyond one hop.

Maintenance Considerations Design Considerations Check VSWR: between repeater and duplexer regularly, record/chart. between duplexer and antenna regularly, record/chart. Record voltages and currents of each device. Test run on batteries to determine condition and run time. Record TX power and RX sensitivity, deviation. Check audio deviation pass through between all ports Start with a new Duplexer or one that is known to be like new condition. Use a 6 can Res-Loc or with similar isolation specs for 600KHz VHF. 4 can Res-Loc are adequate for 5MHz UHF offsets. Try to use commercial grade radios with helical resonator front ends. Mobile type radios will most likely require a fan to cool the transmitter. Run at half or less rated power (too low may cause spurious Tx). Use CTCSS tones to prevent interference.
