RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Quasi-Simulcast?

OH! He's talking about the "oscillation" of the repeater keying up and down. I guess he's making a major assumption that the repeater hangtime is 0.5 to 1 second? Kind of a gross over-generalization in my opinion. When I think "oscillation" I think of it in terms of AF or AF, not duty cycle...

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Quasi-Simulcast?

Quasi .. that just means virtual. Some manufacturers, in the interests of meaningless product diferentiation, choose words for effect. Looking at the article it seems that the "quasi" part is a precision offset to each base stations frequency so that a stationary mobile will not stay in a null.
