\n\n----- Original Message -----\nFrom: \n Ellen Engle\n \nSent: Monday, February 20, 2006 1:11 \n PM\nSubject: Re: [GeDeltaRanger] Ranger\n\nSteve,\n\nFrom what I have seen message wise on several \n groups where you have posted questions it appears that the first thing that \n you need to do is to prove the controller operation. I am also unsure of \n the hookup that you have used.\n\nThe best course of action at this point, I \n believe, is for you to disconnect the radios from the controller. \n Go to http://www.nhrc.net/nhrc-4/ and \n download the PDF files. It appears that several versions of \n the controller exist , so check yours and see what you \n have. Now build a small project box with several LED \n indicators, switches, and test jacks with which you can simulate and \n monitor the inputs and outputs of the controller. Once you get \n comfortable with the operation of the controller from your test setup \n then hook up your RX and TX radios. You should also secure a \n service manual for the Rangr radio and a basic control head so you \n can verify the operation of the radios.\n\nMilt\nN3LTQ\n\n\n\n----- Original Message -----\nFrom: \n steve\n \nSent: Monday, February 20, 2006 6:29 \n AM\nSubject: Re: [GeDeltaRanger] \n Ranger\n\nHi Jim\nwell I have the rx audio to the controler, as a \n temporary measure\ncoming off the loudspeaker output, so there is \n no noise as the squelch works. The controller will accept the dtmf tones OK \n and\nthe CAS and TX side works fine, I need to know \n why I can't seem\nto hear any tones on the TX A/F and why the CW \n ident isnt sent\nI assume the CW tones key the tx\n\n73\n\nSteve\n\n\n----- Original Message -----\nFrom: \n Jim Brown \n\n \nSent: Monday, February 20, 2006 1:31 \n AM\nSubject: Re: [GeDeltaRanger] \n Ranger\nHere is something I learned when trying to initialize \n an NHRC micro
controller, and the new code for the NHRC-4 looks pretty \n much the same.
I found that I had to turn the audio from the \n receiver to the
transmitter way down, as the muting does not work as \n long as the
initialize jumper is installed. Everything appeared \n dead until I
realized that the controller was acknowledging my \n initialization
command, I just couldn't hear it over the open squelch \n noise from the
receiver.
I have been using an NHRC-4 controller \n built from a kit for several
years and never had any problem with \n it. Works as advertised.
