Tried simplex last year - from the farthest extents of the site, simplex worked less than 25% of the time. The repeater site would be directly above the entire event - this is the traditional text book example used in ham license manuals: users on both sides of a mountain, can't communicate directly, repeater can see both.
Thanks to the author of the below linked image: http://9w2bba.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/repeater.gif The terrain could best be described as a high desert canyon with ridges, cliffs and saddles mixed between the various points of the event - perfect for a Scouting invitational :) On Tue, Mar 10, 2009 at 6:36 AM, Ben <[email protected]> wrote: > Why not simplex?
