The statement "what is a gun" is for them to ponder. Yes I do know what a gun is. To me gun control is using both hands and knowing what your target is.
I sure hope you have the trailer tied down solid, get a load on that genset for a bit and it will walk all over the place. I have a 15KW 3 point mount on a farm tractor and when I get close to 12KW it wants to move the tractor a bit!
Nicolas440 this is how I stated it in the first post, with the HT cross banding and the tone squelch on the 2M side of my cross band repeater it does NOT transmit on the 70CM freq.
Perhaps the way I said it might have been a little confusing but it says the same thing. Was starting to...
The way I have it set up the base radio will only transmit on the 70CM band if some one had the proper tone on the 2M side and it is different than what it takes to bring up the repeater so the only transmission taking place on the 70CM band comes from my HT. This way I ID on each band my...
First off this is not left up 24/7 only when needed,ie for our weekly net and I happen to be at the supper table, other time would be when the club does a public service event. I might ask how many hams would be trying on a repeater input with a tone other than what brings up the repeater to see...
The tone squelch (on 2M) set on the IC2720 stops any transmission out on 70Cm so it is a one way repeater. HT xmit on 70Cm with id and then xmit on 2M same id.
Xmit on 2M only none on 70CM by IC2720 so how am I not id'ing properly?
I do this very thing, HT is a Yeasuft-60r that will cross band (TX on one band and RX on another band), I have an Icom IC-2720 in the qth + in the mobile, I set the HT to RX on 2M repeater output and TX on 70CM band, IC-2720 is set to RX on 70CM from HT and then cross band to 2M repeater input...
In my S10 Blazer I have one in the overhead compartment where the garage opener would go and the other (for side B) on the post by my left ear. I know which side of the radio is talking with out looking at the radio.
I used crimp connectors on my LMR 400 and found the center conductor did not bond well so I went back and soldered the center conductor and all is well.
