Kenwood and Primus both make set up's for what you are asking but like I said you and him both need to be on part 90 channels and both on the same call sign set up as a system. I have done this in the past the other problem is if the main channel is UHF then the VHF repeater can only be low power. look in part 90 under mobile repeater. we have set them up a number of times they work good if you get high end equipment. Right now in my truck I have a set up from Kenwood tk-780 and tk880 works good but not low cost.
