I need to get a power adapter, a CWID,
You mean a Power Amplifier or simply called a PA.
For a CWID, I recommend a real repeater controller.
and, depening on the price, a duplexer.
Well - you'll need a duplexer no mater the price... <grin>
I'd like to modify this to use on either a GMRS repeater or a 40cm
ham band. This will be my first repeater.
I think you meant 70 cm ham band... Modification is easy, as no RF mods
need made for either use. You just need to make it duplex. Information
on www.mastr2.com will help you there.
I'm assuming that I could get this

adapter.
You could, but I'd just buy the right PA. They are on eBay all the time.
Do you have any recommendations for the duplexer and CWID?
Duplexer - used WACOM Products WP-678 (or similar), also available from
eBay.
Controller - I recommend a NHRC model that plugs into the "Systems"
board, or, one of the Pion & Simon models that plug into the card cage.
