Hi -
I read in a post you made in late March on the hamtrbo.org forum about trying
out the Hytera (HYT) equipment on a mototrbo system you had up and running to
see how it worked and how compatible it was. Also you mentioned an outlet for
hams to purchase. Of the HYT dealers I have seen and

From what some are saying, all 'colors' are active on all repeaters.
It's like having a repeater that passes CTCSS. Anyone can use your
repeater and you cannot shut the code (or color) off. Again, this is
what I'm hearing from some people.

I assume that users are shut off via a 'kill code' to the radio since

Each repeater handles two 6.25 KHz channels simultaneously, if that's what

Outside of the ones that are dedicated to a specific purpose, like
interconnect, etc, all of them. Like any other trunked system.
And there is not any special option to order to get multiple TGs?
The base model will support all TGs that are possible?

I was talking about how many can be programmed in the repeater, not
necessarily active at the same time per se. IOW, how many talkgroups

So if there are two TRBO repeaters in the same area, there is no way to
keep them both from being active and interfering with each other? That
doesn't sound right.
Or, if I have a repeater, anyone can just buy TRBO radios and use it?

Hi all,
It may a bit out of topic .
For increase the coverage of a single site TDMA format repeater.
Dual to the time delay from distance .
Can we put a power Amp. to do that .
Or Add a power Amp . on the FDMA fromat repeater may more , less better ?
