Along the same lines, if you separate VHF & UHF on the remote base radio
you can use separate antennas, which lets you place the UHF much higher on
the tower. In fact, if you're still using a GP9 for your repeater antenna
you can split that off & use the UHF side for your remote base. Kind of
doing that in reverse here (2 meter remote base TX combined with 440
repeater output TX).
