I still don't understand why people object to two repeaters - properly designed
- cannot share the same channel? With separate PL tones and limited hand time,
they can complement each other.
The use of a coordinator that "assigns" a channel based on antiquated
criteria is still providing exclusive use of a channel to an amateur repeater.
As such, I think it could be challenged.
In reality, two properly designed and implemented repeaters with PL tones can
share the same electromagnetic space and live nicely together - they just get
used one at a time based on the initiator's communications need at that time.
