That seems like a ridiculous idea to put a repeater in the comm van. EXCEPT for tempory storage it someone is going to use the comm van to transport the repeater to the area AND THEN "pack-mule" the repeater to a local hill top where it will be useful.
Otherwise, having the operational repeater stationed in the comm van is only wasteful of power & frequencies as the comm van could simply work all the stations simplex. ------ Original Message ------ Received: Tue, 04 Jan 2005 09:38:05 AM CST From: "Jim B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Mobile Repeaters? > > Dakota Summerhawk wrote: > > > Cant drop the 2M side of things as a lot of hams don’t have 70CM around here > > and 2M will do what 70CM wont in the mountains when runs and races require > > 2M am looking at a few suggestions for the van right now that might work. > > Couple of emails on Motorola gear, either one or two channel radios and a > > controller and duplexer for the rigs that I need. > > Thanks for all the help! > > Dakota > > I still don't recommend a 2M repeater in a comm van.
