Standard RP70U Commerical 450-470MHz 12 watt FM 70cm UHF repeater / base station.

Currently on 460.725MHz TX, 465.725MHz RX.  CTCSS 127.3*Hz.

*CTCSS can be changed via internal dip switch

Uses an internal five cavity duplexer,  included.

I tested it for output power (will output up to 12 watts, into the duplexer).   I set it for  10 watts output to the antenna.

Also tested for receive sensitivity, desense, being on frequency, audio and CTCSS operation.  

There is a small bit of desense, so the duplexer probably needs a touch up tuning.

The other issue I noted is that the volume control on the front panel is scratchy and touchy.  I did try some contact cleaner with marginal improvement.  This volume control is for the local speaker.

I also touched up the transmit frequency,  the repeat and local mic deviation, and tested the receive sensitivity, which is meeting spec.

This is crystal controlled repeater.  I believe it will retune to the ham bands also, but have no way to verify that.


Includes power cord. 

Built in CTCSS (PL) encoder / decoder.   


This repeater works and has been tested on a Motorola Service Monitor.  

Due to the age of it, it is being sold AS-IS and is NOT returnable. Sold AS-IS and is NOT returnable.
