Can a repeater be partially keyed on?

But even stranger, whenever Andy transmitted, the repeater's output power, as indicated on my S meter, was significantly lower than when anyone else was on. I was mobile at 45 mph; Snip Finally, he went to full power output, and his signal through the repeater was noise-free AND the repeater's output was at full power. Given you where going 45 mph mobile, I'd not be suprised if your S- meter observations where not skewed or perhaps the locations where you could safely observe the S-meter where places where the repeater's coverage is a bit lower than normal. Without actually seeing a direct indication of the repeater's output power (like a power meter in the coax between the transmitter and the duplexer), I'd consider the S- meter evidence as hearsay and not get too worried about it. -= Bob =- |
