The only place it starts getting that high is over at the Gualdalupe peaks and up in New Mexico. Mostly low hills between here and Lubbock, where the repeater that is 25 KHz above my freuency is located. 25 down is much closer, though I can't find the CTCSS tone for it. I could use a

: Adding Control Receiver without Separate Antenna I would recommend not using a 12.5 kHz spacing freq in this case of a control receiever, a receiver that is only 12.5 kHz away from your regular repeater input. With typical good FM analog receivers these would both have

While that might work okay, here they have frequencies close to the repeater RX frequencies I might use marked as one way links or repeater inputs. My thought would be using a diplexer of some kind. Of course, I also thought of a diplexer to use the antenna for a low level 2 meter

Wayne, If your repeater situation is like most, antenna not on 5000 ft mountain, a repeater 165 miles away would not be a problem for you. The users of it would be the interferring parties, but at 165 miles don't think a problem. I would simply chose a freq 25 kHz away for the control
