Overview: My name is Chuck. I have been around repeaters quite a while. I built many repeaters in the Los Angeles area in the 80s and 90s. I designed and wrote the firmware for my own controller because only the Cactus controllers were available then. This controller has evolved from many hours of research and development. It uses the common 6802 Microprocessor, 6821 PIA, 2764 EPROM, and the SSI-202P 5 volt DTMF decoder. These are readily available parts. This circuit design was in use for eight years in the WB6ELR Repeater and the WB6GGL Repeater known as the Mount Baldy Machine.

  


This is suggested for experienced Repeater/kit Builders.
