  1. "Sounds Like Somebody Woke Up On The Wrong Side Of The Bed This Morning. Hope You Have A Better Day Tomorrow." And Now - Can We Hear From The Far Right.........
  2. Dude - Your Transmit Frequency For The Repeater Should Be 467.725MHz / CTCSS 100.0 - Not 462.725 MHz. Re-check Your Programming.......
  3. Simple Answer - No Suggest You Trade Or Sell The 880-2.
  4. I Would Have To Disagree. Think His Story Has A Crack In It..........
  5. In My Opinion - The NATO Phonetic Alphabet Should Only Be Used For A Clarification When Necessary On GMRS. It's Really Not Needed For Regular Everyday GMRS Comms.
  6. Could Have Fooled Me......LOL "Some People" Have A Different Opinion On That - Many Folks Enjoy Your Comical Videos......
  7. Wow - This Entire Forum Post Is Way Better Than Jerry Springer Reruns...... Maybe Randy Could Convert It To A Comical Video So All Could Watch & Not Have To Read The BS Attitudes........
  8. "She's One Of The Good Ones We Really Want To Keep".......... WOW - Didn't Realize This Was A "For Approval" Forum Club. This Is The Worst Response Post I Have Ever Read On This Forum......... UFB..........
  9. Correct - Because Commercial Sites Don't Have A House - They Have A Structure Or A Cabinet For Equipment. The Structure Or Cabinet Requires Proper Bonding - For Single Point Grounding - To Avoid A Ground Potential Difference.
  10. It's Called Single Point Grounding. Reason - To Eliminate A Potential Difference Between Having (2) Separate Grounding Systems. Single Point Grounding Is Done On All Commercial Tower Sites.
  11. I think you should revisit your original 1st sentence, "building a briefcase repeater using a couple of HT's" - And further address your future repeater site location, including elevations, antenna gain & total loss, as compared to your current HT user elevations & issues. If this suit case repeater will not be placed at an elevated location, in relation to your current HT user areas, such as a tower, hill or mountain top, with the loss in cabling & a duplexer - you will be simply wasting funds. Duplexer tuning, is irrelevant, unless all other parameters have been adressed.
  12. FCC data base shows it was issued on 6.11.2025. Take another look at the date he posted - It's not 6.1.
  13. Sorry, But I Don't Agree With Your Interpretation Of Part 95.1751 (c). #2 - GMRS Stations (Not Operating Under The Individual License) (Other GMRS Stations) Are Properly Identified For The Retransmitted (Repeater) Communications. The Words "If" & "And" Are Key To Understanding The Rule, That's Why It's Very Self Explanitory.
  14. FCC Part 95.1751 (c): (c) Any GMRS repeater station is not required to transmit station identification if: (1) It retransmits only communications from GMRS stations operating under authority of the individual license under which it operates; and, (2) The GMRS stations whose communications are retransmitted are properly identified in accordance with this section. In Other Words, Your Repeater Station Users Are Required To ID, Along With Your Licensed Group Users As Well. Really No Need For Your Repeater Station To Auto CWID - Unless You Just Think It's Cool..... Unfortunately, This Can Cause Issues If You As The Licensee, Do Not ID On Your Station, Due To Auto CWID - Others May Follow Suit Thinking The Repeater ID Is Satisfying Their Repeater Station ID User Requirements. I Do Not Use Station CWID On My Repeaters For Just That Reason.
  15. The Celewave 0185417U05 Is A Good Quality Duplexer, & The Price Is Reasonable. They Can Go For As High As $1150 To $1250, But I Would Pay $500 To $600 For A Good 4 Cavity Used Duplexer With Similar Specs. The 250 Watt Rating Is Less Relevant For GMRS Use, But More Important Is The Isolation & Insertion Loss Specs Of The Duplexer. If You Want A Commercial Grade, Good Quality Duplexer, This Is A Great Choice. It Will Need To Be Tuned By Someone With A Service Monitor, As It Or Any Duplexer Is Specifically Tuned For A Single Pair Of Repeater Frequencies. A Duplexer Is One Of The Main Components Of Your Station - Don't Skimp Just For $$ If You Can Afford It.
