Cobham AvComm 8800S test set with DMR repeater capability

The Cobham AvComm 8800S radio test set now has DMR repeater test capability that enables it to measure the critical transmit parameters of the repeater’s physical layer.

Testing of DMR repeaters in digital mode has long been a frustration as the repeater will not transmit without being provided with special signalling from an external device. Until now only the most advanced workshop test sets have had the capability to ‘Sync’ the repeater.

Option 06 on the 8800S will command the repeater so that it can repeat the pattern received, giving professional radio technicians all the benefits of a rugged, field-portable, battery-operated package and fully functional DMR repeater testing.
