Hi Josh and all, Should I say, I've been running a Codec2 "parrot" (store and repeat) repeater for a couple of years 24x7!
But without ONE taker other than 5Km away, it's now off. There are not enough Codec2 hams here in Australia. AND, for emergency wide area comms on HF that are "semi-secure", our ham network (WICEN) has no interest. (Meanwhile our NSW country ambulances and stations are fitted with TWELP on HF) So, if you have enough interested people, yes, do a repeater. Mine is a Banana Pi M2 Berry and a Yaesu FT-897D. Thanks guys for the update on projects out there, particularly OpenRTX and SmallDV-V1.

A Raspberry PI would make for a good repeater I imagine. > > Cheers, > Josh --------------------------------------------------- Alan VK2ZIW Before the Big Bang, God, Sela.
