where do I find them? thur moto or 3rd party?

this is what im trying to do plus i want to make it longer. I currently have few with a 18" cable

JerryS

Were can someone find the mic cable with the coax like the one on a public safety mic?

JerryS

For those interested http://www.batlabs.com/saberacc.html just needed to dig around

JerryS

That's the way of thinking! Keep working on it.

I'm asking if any one has a copy of the schematic and pin out of the radio adapter for a AS PS mic.

If you could help I would be great full.

I bet a friend that I could grab the battery post on my car with wet hands and nothing would happen

just use your imagination and it happened.

JerryS

Damn. There's got to be a way to do this without cooking up a nicad pack. there is always a way. just think it thur. the major problem is supplying the 7.4 volts to the to the cap pack via the charging fingers and isolating the charging fingers from the main board. you will still need to supply the...

JerryS

been there done that The only easy way is to cut the bottom off the battery using a miter saw or a mill. then figure out how to fill the the hole When I worked on the project I used super caps. It did not work. the sva would not sense the caps to trigger the charging circuit. I ended up modifying th...

Great info

Thanks Max, that wat I needed to know.

I am looking for info on the amount of current that the Astro Saber III will draw when the radio is Transmitting.

I want to relocate the battery apart from the radio, and need to know the minimum AWG of wire that I should use.

Max length will be 1 meter

Thanks

BTW: The radio is VHF

now thats more like it. That is just what I have been looking for

thanks

JerryS

For what I am looking for the only thing that I have been able to find is an off beat brand and the cost is way out there.

So it looks like a custom build.

So thanks to all.

I am currently looking for a light and accessory control that is similar to the FedSig SS2000 but with out the siren or pa. I am needing the siren buttons to control other accessory.

do any of you know of anything

Has anyone here on the boards have any experience with Speed Tech Lights?
https://www.speedtechlights.com/

They have some nice flashy lights. And I like the pricing. I would be using the lights on a service truck, so they will not be used as heavy as on an emergency vehicle.

Thanks

There are two things that I have been able to determine. 1st It is important is that the Ohm’s match. All of the components should be at 50 ohm’s I.E Radio, Connectors, Coax, thru to Antenna. 2nd As the coax increases in size it will handle a grater load (watts) for longer runs with less signal loss...

With amature radio receiving a bad rap in the eye of the police, news, and general public this last year, not to mention the older hams and there attitude I am trying to find a happy medium. I don't want to look like I have "Police Equipment", and give the cops around here, not to mention ...

I have been to a number of different amateur radio forums, and also some of the vintage military radio forums, and I read a lot about a bigger antenna is better. So I ask them why and if one word could describe the answer it is “Because” and I also hear “You need to learn about it you’re self that i...

Mike, how goes your project? Have you figured out how to get them to talk to each other?

JerryS

You have to remember one thing... the chines think they can do anything cheaply.

Was on Google today and came across this Interesting Item

Your best bet is to do what I did. I call motorola and ordered the detailed service manuals for the equipment that I have. Most of the information is going to be in the manuals. It has been the best thing that I could have done. The most that I have payed is 35.00 shiping is 7.00 ground and the lowe...

JerryS

Don’t worry guys. I was just curious to see if anyone had done something with this.
This is at least 8 points above my pay-grade.

JerryS

Has anyone been able to interface a Motorola XTL5000 HHCH W3 Mic to other radios? Is it posibale to do so?

Dr. FrankenMod

JerryS

Just to give you a heads up.
I am designing a NTN4593 that will have 1.2 volt, 10 farad supercaps that will replace the regular cells to see if it will work with the SVA so you don't need to use a regular Battery. So if it works you don't need to worry about cooking a good battery.

Michael
What model of saber were you thinking of using for the repeter?

JerryS

This sounds like it will be a fun FrankenMod . I also have a bunch of SVA's, so keep us posted as to your progress and any interfaces that you come up with. There are some components in line on the SVA pcb. Read this post: http://batboard.batlabs.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=89449 Dr. FrankenMod

It’s hard to believe that nobody knows this.

Ill just have to call Motorola my self.

no.. were talking about pyramid svr-200 vehicular repeaters. I have a couple of units. Looking at interfacing two together to make a low power portable repeater.

JerryS

Yes that is true. But since I am using pins 3 & 6 I had to remove the ribbon cable so I will have to use a jumper lead to the correct pins on the PCB, That is what I meant in the first place Well I should of studied the schematic better. It looks like all I needed to do was get a DB25 and tie i...

JerryS

Umm. there is no speaker on the units are they are only 2 watts. Frank Are you talking about the SVA's? You have to supply a powered speaker or go to an amplifier off the DB25 connector.

I love my cheap Chinese rib. It's the one with the slide out door for the 9v. It's super compact, has a power and data led, and even came with the pc cable. It looks pretty darn high quality inside with nicely made surface mount boards. However, the factory RIB does seem to have more robust connect...

JerryS

Well the process has started. The design is in the hands of the engineers.

I would like to take a poll. If it were you what color besides black would you have the caskets made in?

I am toying with either red or yellow.

So let me know.

Thanks

I figured out how to mount the extra resistors on u003. I got a chip socket that had extra long legs. I cut the legs on 3 & 4 then soldered a smd type resistor in line, soldered the socket on to the board and installed the U003 chip. Not done building the board yet but it meters out ok. Dr Frank...

Well received the first batch for DOA batteries. I have been able to open up a couple so far with my miter saw, by removing 3/32 of an inch witch leaves me a 3" and 7/8" casket. Some of the battery flex were burned up by what looks like a major shorting or over drawn of current. I was able...

Well I found what I was looking for at this link: http://tech.am/2007/06/25/building-a-us ... la-radios/

I am looking for the springy type pins that go in to the connector for a microphone that mounts on to the radio.

I have seen them on the web but I have gotten lost and now I can not find the web site.

Has anyone seen or know were to get them?

OK so you want to know. Thur some of my sources I have been able to acquired over 110 prismatic lithium-ion cells (the flat ones), rated at 3.7 volts, and 1000mah.

I have been doing alot of research about different types of batteries, different cell technologies, weight to rate comparison, cost, run time, and architecture.

OK guys, to tell you the truth this "project" that I have started. is starting to get out of hand. I think of one issue, get it figured out then something else comes up. So i am going to sit back and think about it for a wile. How it started was that I have serval Li-ion cells that I have ...

Just thinking outside the box.

I am working on the idea of building an adapter were I could atache two or more batterys and then have it run the radio. My question is, am I going to want isolate each battery from each other, so that if I have one of the batterys drain faster from the others that is does not drain them, or if I ha...

Recived the card from sandy. I have tried to figure out were to cut to add the ristors but it is so compact that their is no way to do it on his card.

So if you have any ideas let me know.
