While that might work okay, here they have frequencies close to the repeater RX frequencies I might use marked as one way links or repeater inputs. My thought would be using a diplexer of some kind. Of course, I also thought of a diplexer to use the antenna for a low level 2 meter repeater as well as for 70 centimers (repeater and control rx). I have a GE Phoenix with the RR split (It doesn't like coming up much above 44 or 441 MHz) that could work as a control RX 440 repeaters here are on a 25 KHz split, and the only band plan shown does not include 420 to 440 MHz. My other option would be 25 KHz up, and there is a repeater on that frequecy about 165 miles north. OTOH, a separate RX antenna would not be a real problem, and I could put a filter on it.
