Mike, >NEITHER the ARCCOM or the SCOM 7330 will work if you intend to do anything more than fairly basic things.. a repeater, a remote base on a fixed freq, etc, etc. "Fairly basic things"? If you think this stuff is easy, you haven't investigated what it takes to make one controller run three separate repeaters with 100% fully independent features -- and do it cheaply. I appreciate that your big thing is remote rig control, but: (1) It's neither trivial nor always desirable to put those kinds of rigs at repeater sites; (2) Users aren't that crazy about running some complex remote rig with nothing but a DTMF pad for an input device and CW or speech for the output device; and (3) Internet remote control makes so much more sense than tying the rig to a repeater. There've been several articles about how to build such stations on nice sites for use by club members that are apartment dwellers. 73, Bob
