I know it's not a repeater, none of my repeaters were repeaters before I made them repeaters.

There was no need for two synthesizers, so you can't fault them for not designing it with two. Yes - most REPEATERS have two. You don't have a repeater there, though - you have a mobile, albeit in a cabinet with external controls and a power supply. It's still not a repeater. Joe M.
