Yes it's your COS line, measure the voltage.

I don't believe this is the case Doug.  The node is connected to a Repeater
Controller port.  The radio is a 100 Watt G.E. MASTR II Repeater Station.
The repeater can be sitting with no traffic and suddenly the COS on the
Node will kerchunk.  I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
Thanks for the reply!
