RE: [Repeater-Builder] 420Mhz Radio for Voter?

2010-07-27 Thread Jeff DePolo
 What is a good radio for building a one way 420 link? The 
 link will be for a remote receiver and will not need to be 
 duplex... RX at the voter and TX at the remote receiver. The 
 link RX has to live on a noisy hill. Thanks for your advice. 

My preferences, in no particular order, would be Micor/SpectraTAC (low
split), Mastr II (77 split), and Delta-S (low-split).  MVP/Exec II (again,
77 split) would be fine too.  All have excellent front ends.  They can be
found if you look a bit, especially check Canadian sources; they're not as
easy to find stateside as 450-470 radios, but they're not unobtainium
either.

And even the 88 split Mastr/MVP stuff works fine with minimal
modification at 420.  Most of it just tunes, thouhg you need to add some
padding to get stuff the peak in a few cases.
