I think this thread has clearly demonstrated that there are a couple different 
groups involved in building/maintaining repeaters. Those who are involved in 
commercial systems are likely best served by purchasing commercial grade 
parts/packages/systems, as their focus is on 'having' a repeater. Then there 
are those of us who are interested primarily in the experience of 'inventing 
/designing/ building/ debugging a repeater, and then starting over with a new 
idea. In behalf of all of us in this category, I say thank you all for your 
ideas, experiences and words of wisdom.

As one who spent many years in the first group, I find it immeasurably 
enjoyable to now be one of the second group. No pressure to 'GET IT BACK ON THE 
AIR'. Just have some fun, learn something, and try to pass it on.

VY 73 all,
