The best bang for the buck is the Bosch Telex IP-223 unit, of which I have a number of in service. Bosch owns Telex and Vega, I believe formerly Cetec Vega.
You have to understand how to tunnel through various internet paths, ports and configurations. I use a number of small add on tunneling boxes to reach the IP-223 units. Works pretty killer if you want to spend the money. Their DSP-223 is also a killer product. www.telex.com cheers, s. > "kt...@..." <kt...@...> wrote: > > Wondering if anyone has ever linked two Motorola repeaters together using > the Tone Remote Wireline methodology (2175 Guard Tone, specific function > tones, etc) over IP?
