One for the receive side to provide out of band rejection and one on the transmitt side to make it ballanced looking if for nothing else. The repeater was in an area with lots of other transmitters near it. Must have been over 100 antennas in a 3 block area. Later I noticed they were offering that design in their catalog. Seems most bp/br duplexers do not really have taht much rejection of out of band signals. ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs Yahoo!
