What we have in California, besides crazy
drivers and traffic...
The most common mobile extenders are on
VHF, duplex versions run a non standard
split about 5 Mhz wide. Power levels run
from milli watts on up. Pyramid now makes
them, GE & PSS Inc. used to make them.
Medical extenders are most often UHF and
relative low power (<10 watts).
The CHP use a simplex extender, which sort
of acts/operates like a simplex auto patch.
It works pretty well, there is a scheme to
stack repeater extender priorities when
multiple units arrive on a scene.
One legacy PS System (now out of service) I
serviced used cross band, Tx on low band,
46Mhz, Rx on 153 Mhz high-band. It worked
very well. If Motorola would have kept making
the special order micor extender radios, they'd
probably still be on it.
