Greetings all, Please pardon my ignorance, but with the group of experts who hang out on this reflector I'd prefer getting the straight-poop from those who have 'been-there/done-that', rather than trying to find the correct answer the old-fashioned way!
I'm considering adding a control link to our clubs 2-meter repeater. Currently, we use the phone-line as control link, but it'd be nice to have a second means of control. The controller is a CAT-1000, so I think I can just use the port for the 2nd radio (need to do some more reading in the manual to see what functions are allowed with that setup). Am I barking up the right tree? Any downside to this? Do I need to coordinate the link frequency through our coordinating body (SERA)? Can I eventually use this link to link two repeaters? Am I too stupid to attempt this? Again, pardon me asking prior to doing the research myself, but this place is a wealth of knowledge and with WAY too little time to do everything I'd like to do I sure appreciate everybody's assistance.
