It is the USER radios that have a 30-second time limit. The repeaters have three minutes, although they are commercial units that can operate continuously. A user timeout will inform a long-winded talker that his time has expired, with a tone from his speaker, while a repeater timeout will never be noticed except by others. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@ <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com [mailto:Repeater-Builder@ <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Richard Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 12:49 PM To: Repeater-Builder@ <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] A Monday Laugh 30 seconds is way too short.
