My EMA agency is getting a complete trailer (it's called "I-TAC" - no idea what that stands for yet) outfitted with numerous radios, interfacing equipment, collapsible tower, etc, for this same purpose.
As soon as it arrives (I'm told within the next 60 days, but I've heard that before - 3 times...) I can post photos if anyone is interested. ???

A repeater, yes, in that it retransmits on another frequency. But, my guess is that it is configurable in the field to be able to connect one radio to another, or more than one to another, so that government entities and/or utilities can talk directly. We have such a unit in our county communications trailer. It is programmed simply with a laptop. In seconds you can make any radio in the trailer talk to another, within the limitations of interference, of course. Not sure, but it COULD be first of its kind... Laryn K8TVZ Yahoo!
