Most high end portables and mobiles have this voting feature.
I could send you the firmware for the VX-820 series Vertex Standard portables
as I developed the voting for this radio.
As mentioned, Tait, Motorola, Kenwood, Icom, Simoco, HYT and GME all have this
feature. Some brands may call it by a different name like RSSI Scan or RSSI
Voting etc.

Nope, wrong thing. I'm not talking about that kind of voting. I'm talking of
a user radio that has the capability to vote between the repeater input and
output and listen to the strongest signal. A form of talk-around, if you will.

Voting receivers are in heavy use in public safety, here in SB County all
of the agencies: Fire, both County and City, Sheriff, and City PD use GE
Voters, and we use them on our ham repeaters. There are hundreds if not more
voting systems around California, mostly older GE Types.
The old GE Signal to noise voters work great-Doug Hall (Hall Electronics)
copied them and was selling his version of them, don't know if he is still
doing so, and there are some never versions coming for commercial and public
safety service in the near future from companies you will recognize.
