Ron, Yes, he is wanting this as a GMRS repeater which I would think is very illegal. On the other hand, anything is legal in an emergency.
Paul -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Wright Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 7:26 AM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater Paul & Rob, The issue with having the rig capable of transmitting on GMRS can be a problem. Many Ham rigs can be legally opened for MARS, etc use and this will often open for many other frequencies. I would say if the rig were in a repeater then a problem. I would think just having the rig would not be an issue, but having it installed, but not used and especially wired would be a problem. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: Paul Finch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: 2008/03/24 Mon PM 03:43:19 CDT >To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com >Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Using Alinco DR-605 Dual Band Mobiles for Repeater > >Rob, The Alinco equipment is NOT FCC type accepted for commercial service of any kind. Matter of fact it is very illegal to have them on those frequencies. Check out the Type Acceptance number on the radios and look it up in the FCC files, it will tell you what you can do with it, the DR-605 is a Ham radio only, I know I have one. The Standard RP-70 is probably Type Accepted by the FCC for commercial use but may or may not do the bandwidth required for GMRS which I think is 12.5 KHz, I may be wrong on that bandwidth though. Whatever, it is not legal to have Amateur equipment on GMRS, FRS or any other commercial frequencies.
