KENWOOD TKR720 TKR820 Repeater Controller Cable for YOUR GMRS HAM system 3 feet

Description

This is the same cable we make in-house to use with our ID-O-MATIC repeater controllers.
Now we offer this cable separately so you can interface YOUR controller to YOUR Kenwood TKR-720 or TKR-820 repeater.
As long as you have a good working TKR-x20 repeater programmed internally for frequencies and PL and an external *controller, this cable will work properly
If you want a complete plug and play solution, a choose our controller for your GMRS or HAM repeater, see our eBay store for ID-O-MATIC repeater controller
Genuine Molex connector and pins - professionally crimped and assembled.
Wires in the jacket are genuine stranded (all copper), 36" long
Wires are stripped and ready for you to work with to attach to your controller (just as shown)
Wires connected are (TO - IDOM4 green terminal block number):
Black - Ground common (1 or 12)
Red - Positive 12 vdc (up to 1 amp) from repeater to power your controller (2)
Green - PTT (repeater needs active LOW - GROUND to transmit from your controller (3)
White - Transmit audio IN (11)
Brown - De-emphasized audio OUT (8)
Blue -  COR (repeater output is active LOW) (7)
We also provide a (installed) jumper to allow the TKR-x20 internal speaker to operate
NOTE: * your controller should be a REAL controller, NOT one of those cheap Chinese controllers that does not use COR.
Meaning: a VOX repeater system is NOT RECOMMENDED. DO IT RIGHT, use our ID-O-MATIC controller !
What is COR? Carrier (or CTCSS/DCS) operated relay. In usual terms this means that when a VALID signal with the proper PL/DPL arrives at the receiver input, the COR line of your repeater will "change state". In the case of the TKR-x20, the COR line go from a "high" with no signal to a "low" with valid signal.
It is this "change of state" that tells repeater controllers that a valid signal is there to be repeated.
Can we make a custom cable for this repeater? Different length or some additional wires added? |
This is possible for additional cost. send a message ask me what you want different.
Can we make a custom cable for some OTHER radios or repeater?
--- MAYBE ---
BEFORE you ask me, YOU must research your radios or repeater and answer these questions:
1) For TX radio: Are there external connectors on the repeater or TX radio that have Mic hi (audio in) and PTT?
2) For RX radio: Are there external connectors on the repeater or RX radio that have audio out and COR?
3) Are the mating connectors COMMONLY available?
If no to any above, then NO I cannot make a cable
