Ken first of All I noticed You stated Our group, so I would assume You have others kicking in to the Cost, I do not and I had Scott build Me up a 220 Repeater System, He did it in the process of Building a house and Moving All I had to do was Program the Controller, Hook up the Amp, Power Supply Duplexers, and Ant, I have never had any Problems for over a Yr. I live in N/W Ind and get gets Cold Below Zero and the Repeater is in a non heated area, Last Mo. it started sounding a little Distorted on weak Signals, I E- Mailed Scott and Explained the Problem, and He told Me to Adjust the Receive Element it had Drifted and Finally settles Down, I set it back on Freq it was Low now Everything is Working Great, So Not only do You get a Great Product But also Support after the sale, If I had a Club paying dues I would have another one built and if Something went Wrong just Switch them out , No down time You can have it custom built the way You want it and I wanted all kind of unnecessary stuff S-Meter, Disc Meter Lights, Etc. and was told that was just more stuff to go Wrong keep it Simple .
