As a small bit of fun my self and several other locals are considering installing a 6 metre repeater servicing a modest area around Brisbane and the northern Gold Coast here in Oz, now to keep things cheap we are looking at converting a couple of Kenwood low band TX at 25 watts into a copper jpole or other hame made stick for the base and wonder seeing the tk-601s is kinda old (but free) if any information about altering the frequencies is available? I understand there was some info about a diode matrix about years ago which might be suitable (we have some 828e but dont whish to use them) and rather than get into yet another hardware discussion has anyone used Linux as a controller? (I have a spare loaded p3 on mepis). I cant see too many problems with the interface as packet is easy to run off a computer on the sound card so suggestions and experience gratefully considered, we have a decent site on top of Mount Tamborine which is ideal and figure a simple 70cm link to my home will allow control, comments please Thanks Barry Vk4kgw Brisbane
