Hi there Ian;
It sounds like you are a Maxon dealer?
A better option if you wanted to persue the single CTCSS path and to keep
your quiescent current on your solar sites down would be to utilise the
Maxon SD-170 series of "Data" radio's for your repeaters. We have used these
VERY successfully here in NZ on alpine sites with a PA where other gear was
just too hard on batteries.(As I recall they only use 65mA on stby)
ALSO these radio's will "Pass" CTCSS :-) ... So you could configure
these at your Back-Back links and also your "Remote Sites" if you so
desired. And they come with some other neat features that you could
implement later :-)
If I was putting together a budget community network this is one of the
avenues that I would pursue, especially if cost was an issue.
Cheers;
Gareth Bennett
