I saw this work once back in the '70s when the Ft Worth TX 146.94 repeater was configured to retransmit the 146.94 output of the Little Rock AR repeater. This was possible because the Ft Worth repeater receiver was at 1000 ft with its transmitter at 500 ft. 440 Links back to the control operator for 146.94 as well as 146.34 allowed him to patch the 94 received signal to the 94 transmitter. The repeater would howl during stand down for the Little Rock repeater, but I carried on a conversation with a station in Little Rock through this lash up. Obviously the band was open for the over 200 mile path between Little Rock and Ft Worth.

Would be fun to play with sometime... Still good reading by the way. Laryn K8TVZ ___
