Mark,
You are getting close to doing what I was thinking of. Let's say your repeater system works with sub-watt power transmitter and a little 1/4 wave antenna. You could get about a mile of range with a shirt pocket sized HT. OK so for that's easy. Next you get 50 of your freinds to build systems like that. then you connect all the asterisk boxes with AIX. What you've have then is a cell phone system running on VHF. If you had an LDAP server that culd be kept up to date with what call sign is in the range of which cell you could make worldwide call sign to call sign calls. Also, with low power xmiter lots of people could afford ot git into it. THere are more things one could do with Asterisk and radio then one person could ever cover. I've been wanting to start up some kind of interest group --- Mark Phillips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What exactly are you trying to achieve? > > On my repeater system, I use the RC210 repeater controller with the > Phone Patch option.
