KB9ZAM/R lives on top of the TopFlite elevator. It consists of a 100W GE Mastr II commercial repeater, CAT-200 controller, Interdigital filter, CAT-WX1000 weather radio, Com-Spec TS-64 tone board, Motorola duplexer, ARR Gaasfet pre-amp.
We also have the KB9ZAM digipeater in the same cabinet using an Icom mobile, MFJ TNC w/UIDigi firmware and the TAPR true DCD modification.
The repeater has a battery backup. The digi currently does not.
Everything is enclosed in an old GE cabinet that does little to keep the bean dust at bay. Our antenna is on the far right. The other two are public service backup repeater antennas.
