Their current license is for 100 watts ERP omni Cpol. 240 watts TPO would be about right for 100 watts ERP for a 1-bay Cpol antenna. They have a CP to go directional with 1.5 kW Vpol, 1 watt Hpol. I didn't look at the application but most likely they went with almost all Vpol power due to a

Regarding what you want to do... there are two basic forms of linking... the type you're trying to do with more than two repeater sites/systems is often called chain linking where the center repeater site/station/location passes the communications onward to a third and fourth distant

Thanks skip. I was looking at only linking two repeaters together but if I can successfully link two or more with no problems then it would be great to expand our private system to allow my clients even more coverage as long as privacy can be maintained. With our current private repeater we use a

I think I understand what you are saying Ian. Your #2 repeater has it's input frequency on the #1 repeater's output frequency. That way you would only require one extra receiver (on a third frequency) and precedence circuit at the #1 repeater site. The #2 site would have to have it's output on
