TKR-720 is a good repeater. It is very sensitive, but may not be able to reject a lot of near frequency transmitters. I have used one on 147.225 and it works great. To program you will need speacial programmer or pc interface. Adjustment of the VCO's and front end preselector will also be needed. Overall a good little 40watt desktop repeater.

I checked eham.net but did not find any reviews. What I'd like to know: - Does it have good sensitivity and clear audio? - In general, is it a good repeater? - Can it be easily tuned down to amateur frequencies? - How can it be programmed? Do we need special software? How would you compare it with the TAIT T800 units (if you are familiar with both)? 73, Andreas - 5B8AP
