Tim, Is this a business band thing they are looking at, or can a GMRS repeater be a solution?

As there are a couple of hills (2000' AGL) around the ranch, coverage in some places would be spotty, so a repeater on one of the hills would be the best solution. However, there is no power available, so a solar/wind power solution would be necessary. (we get a lot of sun here!) I've done a couple of solar projects, but this needs to be pretty much commercial quality, so I was wondering if there is a commercial repeater available that would be a good candidate for solar power. I figure the RF power out could be 5 watts or less and still give good coverage throughout the ranch. Thanks, Tim ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
