Bruce, You've got a real challenge here... but more information would help to make intelligent choices, such as:
1. Do you already have a duplexer? If so, what make and model? 2. Are there any other emitters at the site? If so, what frequency and power? 3. Is the radio room heated and/or cooled? 4. What is the make and model of the existing 2m antenna? 5. What is the length and type of feedline between the radio room and the antenna? 6. What is the elevation of the antenna's radiation center? 7. What is the desired coverage area of this proposed repeater? 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of capvan1 Sent: Sunday, April 30, 2006 6:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] new repeater I'm going to build a completly new 2-meter repeater. It's in a very remote site for the winter months, so it must be robust. Emergency power is already available, so that's no concern. 2-meter antenna already in place. In Vermont. I want it to have: 1) Talking S-meter 2) PL tone 3) Automatic weather station No phone patch needed (or wanted) Ok, guys. Here's your dream. What would you set-up with a budget of $3,000? I'd love to purchase a turn-key setup if one was available. Reply off group if you want... 73 Bruce [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
