I am not debating the certification issue, or that a
radio can be certified under part 90 and/or part 95.
That is in the FCC data base. What I am saying is that
there is no "special" or "different" certification
going on for a GMRS repeater.
If a radio is certificated under part 95 for GMRS,
then it may be used for any GMRS application, provided
it fits the bill. A fifty watt base station would be
hard to be used for a 5 watt ERP small base or control
station, but it could be done if the power could be
attenuated enough to reach that 5 watt number. A
mobile radio could be used as a 50 watt base, as long
as it is maintained to a 2.5PPM standard. Since there
is no difference between a base transmitter and a
repeater transmitter, a mobile radio could also be
used there, with the same 2.5 PPM maintenence.
The original question was, "Can a mobile GMRS radio be
used as a repeater TX?" and the answer is "Yes, but
the radio must be certificated for GMRS and be
maintained to within 2.5 PPM".
That is what I'm trting to say. You can think
otherwise, but unless you can show a rule to the
contrary, I'm going with what I know.
