>From the dust bins of WYIN TV:
One set of two gig quad sector horns. made by Nurad. consists of 4 1.8-2.5 
gig quad sector antennas. each looks like a large triangle with a box on the 
back. 4 of these provide omni coverage.  each has mast mounting u bolts (very 
large bolts)  The antenna is designed as a receive onoly but can be used for 
transmit by bypassing the internal down converter.  The weather proof box has 
an assortment of coax relays for selecting polarization (4 modes) plus a 
downconverter.  Runs on 24-28 volts. Output is type N coax connector.  Power 
and control via a multi conductor cable. I will include a length of cable 
(there are four in a pile, about a 100 foot coil each) with each.  These 
would make a fine repeater rx or tx antena or for point to point relay.  For 
transmit, power is limited only by the mini hardline and relays, bypass them 
and go direct tothe dual feed connections.

There is also one Nurad remote control for these  but no local control.  

Now if you are a real microwave fan:
 TWO  MACOMM  13 Ghz transmitters with 4 foot dishes in portable 
configuration.  Each consists of a regular 4 foot dish and feed, on the back 
is the MACOM transmitter box, and there is a light weight fiberglass radome 
on the front.  There is an offset mount to mount these to a pole or truck 
mast.  The tag says these are just below 13 gig  (12,965 mhz).  The box has 
an AC cord, a BNC marked video input, so a composit video and audio 
subcarrier would feed that, and there is an IF output supposedly to monitor 
the signal.  These are solid state but old.  Power output is not known but 
likely 1 watt or less.  A few of these had 3 watts, there is no markings and 
I did not open the box to check.  It could be less.   These were typically 
used for early news gathering purposes. These likely can also be used on 
other frequencies by eliminating multiplier stages or 
upconverter-downconverter. Makes a nice exciter for any microwave video or 
other CW-FM mode.  

So make us an offer boys and girls.  Link those repeaters together, make a 
secure control link, or just be the first on your block to go part 74!
