[Repeater-Builder] portable antenna suggestions
hey all, I'm looking for suggestion on a gmrs portable field antenna that can be used for field sar operations. Everyone has thier gmrs license and the repeater is approved for gmrs.So I'm thinking of using two antennas instead of a duplexer. Any thoughts? thanks, chris __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Low Band Repeaters
here is a stupid question, Can public service agencies still get license for low band repeaters? --- Tom Parker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It's a private party and the tower is only 300' on a pretty average hill, not really what you'd call a hill top site by any stretch. I don't know how long the license has been in effect, but yes, there are still 330 watt licenses. We service two Sheriff Offices on high band with those original GE Mastr's that were put in throughout the state back in the early 70's. Also, have another customer on low band simplex with a 330 Watt Micor. It's in my territory and runs along at 250 Watts (easier on the finals). thp Maire Company wrote: Is 330 watts something that you can still a license for ? Thought 150 watts max.

Repeater worked great and probably had a 90 mile radius of 95% coverage here in Central Texas. It took six trunking sites to cover the same territory on UHF if that's any comparison of coverage. thp Yahoo!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] GMRS Repeater Info Wanted
hey, I see where there is a fixed base repeater and mobile repeater difference. What are the limits on the mobile. If I have like a mobile repeater can I loan to Emeregency Services Units for like a search/resuce scene? thanks --- Jim B. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Eric Lemmon wrote: Mathew, Before you can put a GMRS repeater on the air, you must have a GMRS license. You also need to read and understand the applicable FCC Rules in Title 47 USC Part 95. The current edition of Part 95 is dated October 1, 2003. A GMRS repeater should be FCC Type-Accepted for Part 95 operation, but you can use a repeater that is Type-Accepted for Part 90. This requirement rules out any repeaters built from parts. Some repeaters that are relatively inexpensive include the Yaesu VXR-7000, the Kenwood TKR-850, and the Motorola GR1225 or RKR1225. The important features to have are a built-in ID-er and the capability to decode CTCSS or CDCSS. You will quickly learn that a good antenna, duplexer, and feedline cost more than the repeater. Also adding an aftermarket tone panel (like the Com-Spec TP-3200) is OK. Although the Part 95 Rules limit GMRS power to 50 watts, there are some high-powered pirate stations operated by unlicensed individuals who ignore all of the rules. I suggest that you not seek advice from such people! 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY (and GMRS KAF4211) Just for the record, there probably still are some older 'grandfathered' licenses for 100W, and I know for certain that there are a number of businesses still legally licensed. They are not allowed to make any major mods to their licenses, like freq, power, location, profile, etc. However, they are probably somewhat rare. And yes, there's a LOT of not-so-legit stuff on the air, too... -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL KAE9169 Yahoo! Groups Links [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you!
