But the users at the control points transmit. In WPA, such links are
coordinated for a particular radius in which the station is
"coordinated". It helps assure that the receiver does not receive
interference from other such links.

There is no specifics for AUX in the WPA bandplan (on purpose). People
using SkyCommand and the like are encouraged to use the 145.510 -
145.670 MHz segment on a SNP basis.

Kris,
I think the issue for aux stn is that there is a tx in the system and
the rcvr is the designated end of the transmission.
You are correct the receiver does not need coordination. The freq of
the tx does not need coordination, but as with a repeater if it is
coordinated it has interfe

Kris,
Whatever transmitter you use for the control link becomes an aux station during
the time you use it for control, even if it's the same mobile rig you just used
for a rag chew before shutting the repeater down. The receiver has nothing to
do with the transmitter's definition as an aux stat

This says it all. A control link for controlling a repeater by radio is
an auxiliary station. Also in 97.201 the freq coordination for Aux
stations follows similar to repeaters. If int

Our Florida council recommends in their band plan for AUX stations the

Have you seen any sort of bandplan for auxiliary operation on 2 meters besides
what’s in Part 97? I’m in conversation with SERA now, but haven’t received an
answer on that question yet.

Joe,
Spoken just like a real attorney, hi. Very well spoken.
Remote base is used in comm, but not sure in FCC rules. Not in Part 97,
but maybe in 95 or 90 where "remoted" bases are used widely. So it
might have a FCC definition somewhere.
However, any attorney will tell you certain words
The rules did state what frequencies could be used for control. It was
the same as AUXILARY frequencies. Recent changes did add 2 meters and
included 145.5-145.8, out of the repeater band. Some started putting D*

While on the subject of Mototrbo, I finally had time to "play" with our

Am I safe to assume the Mototrbo repeater will pass all digital voice

Ug. forgot about the Echolink guys!
As for Control Receivers, I think I agree with Paul's post on that. True,
they don't transmit, but they are part of a closed system.
I've gotta keep Part 97 in front of me for this discussion!

A "remote base" is technically a "Remotely controlled station" in
FCC-eeze. It's all very clearly defined in Part 97.

Don't confuse "auxiliary operaton" with a "Remotely controlled station".
The latter was quite legal in 2M even before the rules change.

"It's not really related to control receivers, since they don't transmit."
Ahh...but it is. If you transmit a command to a control receiver, you are
technically in auxiliary operation. Convoluted, I know, but it goes all the way
back to the old "block diagram" days at the candy company. ;^)
