Hello, not too sure if this is the best section for posting this, but I am looking to get a 50w repeater to use for GMRS (I figure most UHF repeaters cover the ham and gmrs bands).
I have the antennas and cables, but the repeater is just a couple of Motorola CDM1550s linked together. They work fine, but I am looking for something that is ment for this job.This was something I just threw together, now I would like something that is a bit more permanent and dedicated to this (plus I can put these two radios into some vehicles).
Quite a few people have come up to me and made suggestions and gave me websites, but I figure its best to ask the pros, what should I use as my repeater? All I really need is something that rebroadcasts and can broadcast my license (Hopefully on a seperate PL) (because 90% of the repeater users are under my lic). I think I know enough to do this on my own, but with little experience, I would rather play it same and not make any mistakes that I'm sure others have already made.
As I stated, I will keep the antennas and LMR cables, I'm just replacing the two CDMs that are currently acting as a repeater. Thank you for your help.
