Hi Joe, >I'm still trying to comprehend why you would need replacements just because a site is more quiet. If they work at the crowded site, they should work fine at the quiet one.
That's just it --?they don't work all that well at?this mountaintop site with literally hundreds of RF sources. Since we have an opportunity to sell them, it seems like a good time for an upgrade. But if K is no better in this situation than V, you're right, we're going down the wrong path. This is a club that went from Micor vintage equipment that was showing its age?to Vertex and now?has an opportunity to change once again. The bias is toward new, low-maintenance gear rather than refurbished old commercial gear. 73, Bob -----Original Message----- From: MCH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, 2 Oct 2008 9:50 pm Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Vertex vs. Kenwood I'm still trying to comprehend why you would need replacements just because a site is more quiet.
