The data buss will only offer or hand off to the next stacked repeater if it can see it. If you disabled or removed the data buss the repeater would stand alone... however not only would you need validation but the controller will fart a warning of a missing rndl buss master unit. > Using a mobile responding to the LTR protocol will take too > much time I think...

Simply home the mobiles on that desired stand alone repeater, in this example call it repeater #4 in the stack. With the right type of LTR Controller you could busy out one of two slaved #4 LTR Controllers using the tx line of the other controller and some smart id code assignments. Been there... done that. cheers, s.
