Moderator I looked through the rules and did not see any rules against posting a link to my video. Please remove if it is not allowed.

I have a YT channel and I recently built an all enclosed repeater box with external Fara-J antenna. It uses a Red’s Engineering SRPT-03 Repeater, UV-5R, Btech amplifier, 70CM Fara-J antenna and a 30Ah LiFePo4 battery powering all components. Even though I originally built it to work on the 70CM band, I tested it on GMRS as well. It worked quite well and I got good distance out of it. I have ordered the GMRS version of the Fara-J antenna and I will be testing it in this form at a later date. Testing the box on 445.000MHz I saw a little over 40 watts output and on GMRS channel 16 I saw 38 watts output into a dummy load. I hope you enjoy it:
