Well, spending $2000 now is usually cheaper than spending $500 now and 
$2000 later. Even if it takes three years to implement; swapping out a 
fleet of 100 - 2500 radios takes time.

For ham use, literally anything as long as it doesn't cause harmful 
interference to other services.

For Part 90 use, something narrowband complaint because the deadline is 
a loomin'.

[Repeater-Builder] Legal radios for a repeater

2010-05-29 Thread terry dalpoas
I was asked the other day by a friend if you could use an older mobile (Micor, 
Mitrek, Mastr II and Exec) that has been duplexed for a repeater in GMRS, 
public safety, etc.  I told them that I was pretty sure it was legal since the 
transmitters are FCC type accepted and as long as they transmit a clean signal. 
 Was I correct on this?
