I presume you are talking about the ham bands.... At the very least, for 1-way crossbanding the radio that will receive the signals from your HT must provide an carrier-detect output that will be used to key the other radio, and you must provide an audio path between the radios. For 2-way ("full") crossbanding, you would need carrier-detect outputs from both radios, and audio paths in both directions.
More info would be helpful, as there are ID issues to contend with, depending on whether you do 1-way or 2-way crossbanding. This is an issue that MANY (most?) people doing crossband repeat with dual-band ham rigs do not understand, and consequently, do not do legally. Is your HT single-band or dual-band? If dual-band, can you hear the repeater(s) directly with it? If so, you'd only need 1-way crossbanding, and that simplifies things a little...
