I don't know what band Nick is trying to operate on, but my suggestion would be to get a purpose-built vehicular repeater, like a Motorola PAC-RT, and operate that way. Maybe Uniden has something similar - I'm only familiar with Motorola...
FWIW, Nick, the PAC-RT operates on a completely different band than the primary radio (for example, the primary is VHF and the PAC-RT is UHF), so you would need two antennas, but no duplexer. So your UHF portable would transmit to the car, which in turn would transmit on VHF. Mark - N9WYS -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com On Behalf Of agrimm0034 I have very little knowledge with Uniden but I am with Motorola. I don't know if this will help you any but you would definitely need a duplexer because at 50 watts tx on a repeater your antenna's would have to be separated vertically around 50 ft and horizontally as much as a mile to get the necessary separation. As far as linking them together I'd recommend having 2 Motorola type radio's, there easier to work with --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "flame05154" <flame05...@...> wrote: > > I have 2 mobile radio's and im very new at this but i was wondering if there was a way that i could make a reapeater out of them for my vechical. My goal is to be able to talk to my mobile repeater that will in turn transmit over the 50watt radio other than my portable which is 5watt. I have an older model uniden and older model motorola. i know i would need to purches a duplexer (at least i think i would unless i put 2 antennas on my truck) but anyway, if anyone has any ideas on making on that would be grand. > > Thanks, Nick
