Kurt: The 2 meter receive will come later if at all. I would like 2 inputs on the repeater in case we want to "link" one from another city in case SHTF and we need emergency links to Des Moines or Cedar Rapids.
Since I am lumped into that different breed, I'll keep them corralled. One is the medical examiner, another a prominent attorney, so the good will this will generate is invaluable. Thanks for your input!
