<----A receiver multicoupler and transmitter combiner system is usually quite expensive and lossy. Depending how far/close the involved freqs are too, this factors into the amount of loss as well. As for duplexers though, you don't need 'em with such a system. To get a better idea of what's involved in such a system, here a couple of links that may useful. http://www.rfsworld.com/index.php?p=23 http://www.anglelinear.com/couplers/couplers.html (BTW, AngleLinear makes some of the best stuff on the market, IMHO) Ken ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ President and CTO - Arcom Communications Makers of state-of-the-art repeater controllers and accessories. http://www.ah6le.net/arcom/index.html AH6LE/R - IRLP Node 3000 http://www.irlp.net Yahoo!
