(R)epeater (I)nterface (C)ommunications (K)it. It is a Motorola "box" that can be configured as either a Uni or Bi directional repeater (along with many other variations). The setup and configuration manual can be a little confusing but it works. BillB In a message dated 10/15/2008 1:18:41 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
I’m embarrassed to ask but, what the heck, what is a “RICK”?

Afternoon, Yes, the standard rick most people use with Maxtrac Radios should work in the cross band bi-directional mode. If the radios you want to use will emulate (configure the same as) the Maxtrac 16 pin connector... you can easily make a bi-directional repeater cable (saving you from having to use a RICK Unit) by using some of the very common repeater cables seen/found sold on ebay. Remember there is obviously more than one Rick Model used in the various Maxtrac type repeaters so all examples are not the same. cheers, s. > Morning, > I was wanting to know if its possible to hook up a VHF and > UHF radio to a Motorola RICK and use them for a cross band > repeater?
