the other 3 flights. It is possible to haul without a hoist. Next time I do

Normally I have seen these in Lo-VHF stations but were also made for Hi-VHF.

Moto has for trunking a re-group. If the control channel goes down the mobile
are re-grouped to a particular repeater. We have a 5 channel trunking system
with multiple sites so not all repeaters will go down at the same time.

Three areas to look for bad solder connections.
1. Driver on the main PA board (usually Collector)
2. Strap between Driver and PA finals. ( this is on the PA board)
3. Strap from PA board to Filter.
I have had all three happen to me on different hiband repeater PAs.

Steve, the reason you don't get anyone on the other repeaters is due to you not
being known to them. Most repeater users will only talk to ones they know and a
different call comes on the repeater they all of a sudden get mic fright and
don't answer :>)
