Let me get this straight... you're been able to get a single Mitrek Mobile Radio to Duplex (repeater) operation at 125 watts without any receiver desense?
Seems to me there is serious potential for in-cabinet desense. At anything but modest power levels, most people use two Mitreks for one repeater (one tx and rx radio each function). cheers, s. > "Thomas Oliver" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yes it is doable I have several on the air right now very little trouble > since installation just keep fans on them if using for TX.
