[Repeater-Builder] Re: BiDirectional Repeater Cable?
I have and they actually work just fine. Although they are very basic and provide no repeater controller options, which include a tail or drop out timer unless you buy the model that has it built in. The cable you ask about takes two Motorola 16 pin radios like the GM300 and M120 units, makes one a repeater receiver and the other a transmitter. I make a similar unit using the rear 16 pin plug/jack and in some examples also/or the front mic jace. Be careful about the ebay sold unit, it's very, very easy to put the cable in upside down, there is no plug polarity key, nor is there a real indication of which side of the plug goes up or down. (unless they've changed their design. cheers, skipp [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone actually used this product?: _http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=5813655761_ (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=5813655761) Seems to be a repeater maker cable that offers full DUPLEX for both radios, through the Acc pins. Was interested in using this for a few cross-band systems, if we can use a total of only 2 radios for both Tx and Rx that'd be great! Anyone that's used this product, let me know if it works. Thanks!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: BiDirectional Repeater Cable?
Thanks for the response. So this is notwhat I thought it sounds like. We are looking to boost indoor handheld coverage so our theory was to use this cablewith a VHF w/ our main repeater freqsand connect it to a UHFfor handheld transmissions.In this case, both radios would need to be able to RX and TX, not one as Rx and one as Tx. Correct? Also had recommendations for arooftop yagi pointing toourmain repeater, to a bi-directional amp, to a indoor omni. As well ashaving multipleon-site repeaters linkedvia UHF. If you have any other thoughts or experience w/ these please let me know! Most of our sites areabout 2-3 miles apart, but we have one that is about 10-15 miles. The mainrepeater isat about 100ftAAT, but2 of our locations are sitting in a river valley which seems to beblocking a good handheld signal.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: BiDirectional Repeater Cable?
This absolutely could work for you. You seem to have a vhf.repester with poor
handheld coverage in the building. Just set up the vhf unit to the correct
repeater pairn and use that cable to connect the vhf to a uhf simplex freqm.
The handhelds would then be uhf and simplex. Sonanything the vhf hears will go
out on uhfn and anything the uhf mobile hears will be transmitted out the. Vhf
on the repeaters ibput freq. And will go thru the repeater. People in the
building will then hear the uhf tansmission simplex.

have one that is about 10-15 miles. The main repeater is at about 100ft AAT,
but 2 of our locations are sitting in a river valley which seems to be blocking
a good handheld signal.
THanks!
