Take a look at the NHRC2 Controller its a great buy and will do what you want except turn the radio on and off. The problem that you will run into will be once you turn off the radio how will you turn it back on, especially using one radio in cross band repeat. Now if you use the same radio and use the NHRC2 controller or the like to do the same function externally you will be able to enable and disable the Tx/repeat function and leave the radio on all of the time. you just send the enable code and the repeat function is up and running. Most radios that do cross-band repeat just couples the audio from the receiver to the Tx side and does a RUS to Tx key function. you can do the same function externally with the NHRC2 controller and it's about the same price as the two devices mentioned in the other post and It will do what you want. If you want to save a few bucks and have a well stocked parts box try buying the partial kit whick has the board, the uC and the DTMF decoder. You supply the rest of the easily found components. Have fun! 73 AC0Y
