Neal, You may be referring to the Pacific Research model RI-210 repeater controller for the Vertex VXR-5000 repeater. This is a very capable controller that is made to plug into the VXR-5000, replacing the original controller. I have one in service on my GMRS repeater, and it works quite well. Don't buy it without the required software and programming cable. More information about this controller can be found here:
http://www.pacres.com/products/ri-210.html It's not particularly user-friendly, but once I got all of the variables set, it's been working just fine. Its major failing, which seems to be common to every controller on the planet, is that the built-in clock drifts so much that it is useless. I am looking into using a new TAPR kit to synchronize the clock to GPS time... but that's a whole new topic! 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neal Newman Sent: Thursday, November 23, 2006 6:56 AM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder]Repeater Controller Any of you guys know anything about a repeater controller called an RC-210? or something like that.
