Mike, The Link-Comm RLC-DVR can do what I think you are talking about. I have one on our system and it is programmed to allow an operator to record his callsign and name, and then replay it when he releases the PTT. It worked okay. However I have to reinstall the programming, had a power cut

MFJ marketed that board also. I think it was an MFJ-52, but not sure. You have to make a packet connection to the TNC using the X1J4 firmware and the TNC will respond with the deviation and signal strength of each station in the MHeard list. You can also query for supply voltage and

Let them complain. If they don't like it, tell them to take their rag chewing elsewhere. I did like the guys idea about just having a macro announce some number. Can you imagine, the repeater is putting out 1.21 jigawatts. Of course, you would need to add a flux capacitor, but well worth the
