Hello, The 820 repeater I have does not have a controller in it, wonder if it ever did. I got it second hand but it was set up for LTR trunking.
Did Kenwood have a option of no controller? Be interesting to find out. By the way, who knows what they were thinking when/if they removed the controller, no reason to say something or someone is stupid. That area where the old controller was is the perfect place to install a small controller with the ID built in, something the 820 controller does not have. Have a little tolerance guys. There is always someone smarter than we/you are.

If you don't think you'll ever need them, you generate another $50 income and run an external tone/ltr panel through the rear connector. cheers, skipp > "Jim B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Well, that's pretty stupid.
