I'm in the process of putting together a radio system for my business. We provide services (assay, exploration, rehabilitation, contract mining, etc.) to the mining industry and most sites in the region are very remote and lack cell service, or any other services for that matter. Communication between crews will be necessary. Low band VHF looks like the best fit for the type of work in question, and a crossband vehicular repeater would extend the effective range of UHF portables. The TK-690H is the obvious favorite for the low band side on each truck, and the UHF will either be a Pyramid SVR or a TK-890. UHF portables are non-negotiable to ensure interoperability with our largest client's radio system.
Which station class code should I be using when I submit the license application? MO3I (Vehicular repeater- itinerant) seems like the most logical; would each crossband setup be considered an MO3I station on both frequencies?
Additionally, I'd like the ability to send data and messages over the air, mostly for supply and location reporting purposes, basically APRS. Which emissions designator is appropriate for wideband data on low band? 20K0F3D looks to make sense.
