Russ, I have been looking for the same information myself. Haven't found much yet other than the Icom D-Star someone mentioned. They are supposed to work digital and analog! I have heard of a few installations where guys are running 2 Kenwood 541s back to back with some minor mods. I don't usually recommend using ham mobiles for repeater duty but they will work in a pinch. The main problem using mobiles is that the power amps are designed for intermittent duty, not 100% duty as needed for repeater operation. Switching to low power and using a fan can help. Sometimes ham mobile transmitters have spurious emissions that hinder repeater operation. A repeater transmitter needs to be clean. Check the Kenwood specs. Maybe they're ok. If you find any More information that helps, I'd love to hear about it.
Good Luck, J.
