I have a VHF MSR2000 in cabinet here at the house that was just removed from
a site where it was connected to regular A/C power.
An upcoming weekend in April has 4 major events occurring simultaneously
which ties up both our fixed repeaters (2 of the events are within coverage

Please disregard my call for help. As several of you pointed out the
FRS/GMRS handhelds are simplex so a repeater is of no use.
Thanks to those that responded

Someone else pointed out a simplex repeater. Just plug into a handheld placed
on a hill or high building. It is a bit annoying to hear it repeat everytime,
but for this type of emergency it could work. I have used them and its pretty
effective.

here is my thought on how to implement this...
TX site:
Feq: 27.315
TPO: 4 Watts
Mode: AM
Antenna: Custom Dual 4 Bay Folded Dipole
Filter: Bp: 27.315 Br: 27.965
Coax: Andrew 1 Inch Hardline
Controller: Rack Mount Custom Controller, and Receive Voter
Transmitter: Cutom Built Crystal Controlled 4
Hi
Why not use a uhf link ?, cheaper than a phone line and
probably more reliable. 27Mhz, is in the cb band, isn't it

to 200 watt ERP for p2p links. can squeeze out a reliable 10 mile hop if
implemented correctly.

I personally think as long as you are running in band, not causing out of
band interference, and keep at 4 watts or below the FCC won't really care.
it seems they only respond when someone runs illegal power with illegal
modes who is interfering with stuff outside the regular 40 channels.

The local club decided to drop the coin on a new repeater, so they bought a
used Quantar station. I'm working on interfacing an RLC-MOT to it.
I have the wildcard tables set up properly to allow what I would assume is
discriminator audio to be present on connector 14, pin 22 RX Wideband Audio.
lose the RLC-MOT and program in an output based on receiver activity!
That would be easiest. Other than that, is there a SAM board in the
station? The Quantar does not really have discriminator audio available
as it is a digitally processed platform and it just re-creates it for
you. The

We have a site that we'd like to run our repeater off the cell phone

It's a Motorola Micor, and we have a couple of link radios as well, total

Astron makes a line of DC-to-DC converters, including several that convert
24 to 12 VDC. I'd strongly suggest using at least two converters, rather
than trying to run your entire system on one unit. You probably should
employ converters that have full isolation, just to be certain that you
don't

I agree that Samlex makes some very high-quality equipment, but the specific
