NXR-810 Power Adjust

[70cutlass442]

Can the power on the NXR 800 be lowered to 10W to drive an external amp? I see the s/w only has high/low.

Yes it can.

If you have a service monitor, you can adjust the high power down to 10 Watts. There's a process you have to do to ensure no spurious eissions.
Note, nxr800 is a 5 watt repeater, nxr800E is a 25 watt repeater.

So I assume it is not as simple as the Icoms which is a simple key sequence?

No you need a service monitor if you are making adjustments like that. Not a just tap the keyboard adjust.

Good to know 👍

Or just toggle it to low power. It probably is preset to 10 watts roughly, but again, check it on a known monitor before you hit an amp with it.

Oh, and do you mean an NXR-800 or NXR-810? They are very different repeaters.

Sorry, I mistyped. I believe this is a 810 unit. I will be on site this weekend to verify.

Easy-the 800 is one rack unit high-very thin. The 810 is much taller, the same basic cabinet as a TKR-850. There's also a TKR-D810 in that as well. Same thing but DMR instead of NXDN.

Thank you for clarifying this. This is a NXDN unit that is about 11 years old. Not sure when the 800 was produced, but I recall the 810 was current at that time.
