[App_rpt-users] Portable micro-node?

[Stephen - K1LNX]

I've thought about using the same radio, I have an MT2000 and an MTS2000 both VHF that would be perfect for a project like this... I also found these on ebay, might be easier for wiring:

I don't have a RTCM yet, but plan to get one in the near future.

Hi Alan,

For UHF I have used Motorola HT1000, MT/MTS2000, and Astro Sabers with the RTCM (and Beagle/Lox), both work well other than that you have to use the speaker’s bias for COS detect.  You just need to destroy a speaker/mic cable for the cause.

Ok, so I want to build a portable micro-node for allstar around an RTCM.  I have the RTCM know how to configure it, etc… What I just can't figure out is *what radio* to use…. I'd like this to be portable and low power - ala HT.

I've got any number of commercial motorola HT's or a few dual band Ham HT's (specifically thinking the TH-79A that I have laying around)…. So what are you all using and what's easy to hook up?  I really don't want another *mobile* radio, that's just too much overkill.

If you would, can you offer hookup directions (not to the RTCM, I know that part), but to whatever radio you are using?

Thanks in advance,

Alan
