Does anyone have any information about the conversion of a TEDELEX TE-6000
40ch SSB CB from the Australian 27mhz to the New Zealand 26mhz
(26.330-26.770mhz)
by reprogramming the PLL02A chip, rather than changing crystals?
Cheers, Jamie Macgregor

Wayne has left the building.
However before he did he ask if there was a mail problem as it seemed he was
sending things out but getting no replies.
As I run the system he posts from I get to find out. So if anyone sees this I
would appreciate a reply.

 Jamie ask if your sysop can get or carries the CB related echos you may find
an answer there to convert the radio over to NZ's cb band.
 Only modifications I have for the PLL02A are for conversions to amateur use
of the radio on 10m (28MHz.) or 6m (50MHZ.)
 The echo you may want to ask your sysop about is called CB_RADIO and there
may be someone there who can help you do the conversion.

Do what we did..get the radio direction finding equipment out, and track him
down. Then call the local police and talk to their communications officer,
explain the situation and give him any information you have. Things like
license plates of vehicles in the driveway, addresses etc. will enable them
to mount a campaign of ploice harassment againt him...
It worked here...got our repeater all cleaned up in a short time..

user: You are replying to All about "Packet BBs Software".

Write your reply.

assistant: Hi Everybody,
 I have a question. I've been using a Tigertronics BP-1 TNC with
Baycom software. It works ok for packet I guess. Tryed the
WINTNC software and it also works well.
 I was wondering though if there is software around for it that
would let me run atleast a message base for local users.
 The idea is to transfer messages to my landline BBS to send out
to the Internet.
 The closest packet node we can send out messages to the Inet.
is always busy, and we have to go threw atleast 5 nodes to hit it.
 So far I've found a door that will let my Ham users access the
TNC from a door to go out to the Packet BBS but I've had a harder
time finding software that goes the other way.
 Can you guys suggest some good software that atleast has an easily
accessable message base?
 Hope I'm not off topic here,
   Mike

 There is also an article in the September 1996 issue of CQ:VHF dealing with
jamming as well as an article on building a transmitter finger-printing

 I'm in the process of gathering parts to build a unit and once I get it all

Yeah, Ive got that, but none of it seems CB related, and I was assuming that
the more technical side of HF rigs would be in here, since unlicenced people

without a licenced amateur watching over their shoulder.
Oh well, Ill go try a post in there, and hopefully Ill get something.

Sure can! Here's something I need very badly.
As soon as I enter the house my 2-meter mobile/base, 2-meter HT, shortwave

Local broadcast stations
Paging services
Something that goes "NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA" like a pounding
  alarm of some kind.
Yellow Cab Dispatch
Fire/Police Calls
Move away from the house....just fine. Enter the house or even the back
yard.....NOISE NOISE NOISE..all over the place.
Design either a protection device for my radios
or
Something that will seek and destroy whatever is causing this.
