For info:
Yet to be confirmed but it it is probable that Bruce's antenna or coax feed could be at fault. I did a number of tests with him over about 3/4 hour period with him trying 3 different 2M radios all indicating correct frequencies, transmit power etc. yet he was unable to trigger the Gold Coast repeater - yet he could hear just me on simplex. No sign of any transmitted signal here on different frequencies and two different radios/antennas or my SDR. I find it difficult to believe that the three 2M radios he has are all faulty on transmit, particularly when they all indicate RF output.
His coax/ Ringo antenna combo is the only common factor left and he is trying to set up an alternative to test with.
I have edited his phone number so that it does not get promulgated.
