RE: [Repeater-Builder] Bi-Directional Repeater Cable?

[Eric Lemmon]

Connecting two identical radios back-to-back is the easy part, which this cable probably can do okay.  But it does not include a station identifier, which is mandatory.   I also am skeptical about the claim of full duplex operation.  Back-to-back cables normally work in cross-band applications, where the radio that is receiving a signal uses its COR to key another radio.  Then, when the reply comes in, the keying direction is reversed.  This is simply a variant of two-frequency simplex operation..   73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 02, 2006 12:37 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] BiDirectional Repeater Cable? Has anyone actually used this product?: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=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!
