Ok...got everything together for the station...now one last
question. I know its not required, but I want to put an ID'er on
the setup. To refresh memories, I'm using a couple of maxtracs and
a R.I.C.K. for a controller with the XMTR turned down to about 20
watts into the duplexer. Aside
The RICK has a 16 pin
accessory connector on the back of it. You should be able to connect
the ID'er there.

Bob,
For a portable mast I would suggest going to your local RV center and
asking
about one of their portable flag poles. It has a small base
lately ?

Hi Bob and the Group,
I have seen Russ's set up on his SUV
and the DB-404 is not a large antenna
at all. His mount folds backwards. It
is made for the Tar heel low band mobile
antenna.
I would not use a mag mount for any thing.
What would you gain by having a repeater
using a mobile antenna

What would you gain by having a repeater
using a mobile antenna that you could not
do the same thing as just working simplex?
Actually, the best reason for not using a mag mount as a repeater antenna
is the feedline

high reach
Bob;
Carrying this thought a little farther leads me to wonder why the harness
of the DB 224 antenna made of VB83 and VB11 for example would not be a
problem also. Do you suppose it is the vapor block impregnation
that prevents microscopic movement?

Something you might look at would be one of the
lightweight fiberglass base station antennas made by
Antennex, Maxrad, etc. These only weigh about 4 or 5
pounds, you could also get several 6ft sections of
telescopic aluminum tubing to support it, much less
weight and size than the TV masting. For
