John - A word of caution may be in order since you are dealing with a club.
These days, the typical ham doesn't begin to comprehend the complexity of a repeater system. To many, one simply needs to go out a purchase new equipment, plug it all together, and it runs. Wrong! Don't let your club go down that path. The end result will be lots of money being spent and unhappy results. I've watched it happen. If you are running a repeater, you WILL have problems with it, no matter what brand of equipment you use, no matter if it's new or used. You appear to be taking the steps to learn about it. It's the only way you'll be able to cope unless the club pays a commercial two-way shop to maintain the system. In the meantime, keep plugging away. It can get very frustrating at times.
