The question that pops into my mind concerns the proposed 200 watt power
amplifier. I have to wonder where the notion to run an alligator system
originated. I see four possible answers:
1. We have this 200 watt amplifier, so we are duty-bound to use it
regardless of whether it is necessary or

Skipp,
I agree with nearly every point you made, having had experience with both
the Kenwood and Hamtronics repeaters. However, Hamtronics and similar
repeaters have one serious deficiency: A total lack of PA protection against
