Jesse, Again here is the text from my first reply. "The MSR2000 processes the audio, and does de-emphasis, on the "R1-Audio board" before it goes through the various paths to the exciter where it gets pre-emphasized". If you have the manual, look at the RF control chassis where all the interconnections between the various modules and cards get inter-connected. >From the receiver, the discriminator detected audio goes from pin 5 to the R1 audio squelch card pin 7. On the R1 audio squelch card the audio goes through the variable gain amplifier, the R7 level adjust, the audio mute gate, then the de-emphasis amplifier and finally to the card edge pin 17. >From there (depending on different versions of RF control chassis) it goes to pin 17 on the squelch-gate card etc. etc. So the general audio used for the local speaker and in the case of the basic repeater system comes De-Emphasised from the R1 Audio-Squelch module. 73, Tony VE3DWI

So with a MSR200 repeater in its simplest form Receiver, Station Control Card, Squelch Gate, Exciter, I would suspect that the audio remains unchanged though the whole system. Am I right?
