ok here is goes. We are a Kenwood, Icom and Brigecom dealer.
Yes we can sell all three. We also have a number of our own repeater on the air. Brigecom is very good in the repeater use and great for ham use. Kenwood the TKR-840 we have about 6 on line (been taking out Micors) for the 460 to 470 band and they work great. Icom FR-4000 we have 4 in service 460 to 470 2 high power 2 low power into a PA's. all we have had no problems with . The main think Icom told me was they would not support use out of band 450 to 470 on the FR-4000 repeater. Well we have had the repeaters in use for some time with NO problems all go into TX RX products. Also have a number of the Motorola Micors repeaters in use and a Kenwood TKR-850 on a GMRS channel and one TKR-740 on 2 meter use. If you are using the FR-4000 in the 440 to 450 band please send me info on how you did it and what your setup is. thanks John ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Finch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, June 15, 2007 2:21 PM Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] ICOM Repeater > Only one problem, I am a Ham and an Icom dealer...... > > Paul > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dick > Sent: Friday, June 15, 2007 11:55 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] ICOM Repeater > > Paul & Kent: > > You might want to have a look at the repeaters from Bridgecom. > www.bridgecomsystems.com/ContactUs.html > > I'm running one each of their VHF anbd UHF ( 2 m and 70 cm) and they're > great!! > > I'm not a paid ad for these guys.
