Depends on what it's doing at a given instant. If it is actually repeating an incoming signal, and nothing else, it's a repeater, and can be under automatic control. If it's doing an autopatch, or a remote base function, or Echolink/IRLP, or just saying the time of day, or anything else other then an ID, it's not in repeater operation anymore, and cannot operate under automatic control. -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL
