the ~850KHz split could be done with both hybrid and cavities, but in the real world, you're talking very high Q cavities. The Motorola T1500 series bottles in BP connection would not play well at this close spacing. If you can find some very high Q cavities, that would be the best way to go

When the 2 channels are around 2 to 2.5 mhz apart it is pretty easy to use 2 duplexers, BpBr tuned to pass normally, but the reject is set normal on one cavity, and to reject the second repeater tx, or rx on the second cavity.   If the two channels are 200 khz or less apart then a singl

Jed, There are several options, all of them expensive. Whether you go the hybrid-ferrite route or the cavity-ferrite route depends not only upon the frequencies of your two repeaters, but also those of other transmitters at the site. Either way, you must separate the two receivers from the two t

You would need a combiner/multicoupler combination. I think it's been done, but it's very expensive. Typical combiner/multicoupler use is to have one each on its own antenna - one on the combiner for the TXs, and another on the multicoupler for the RXs. This is expensive on its own. What you need i

Typically no, the transmit part is the combiner and it will be expensive unless you get very lucky in used stuff. All the filtering/duplex parts will be very frequency specific and tough to locate already in the ham band, you may find the losses far outweigh choosing another site. Have you used eit
