[App_rpt-users] URIx versus URIb

[Scott Zimmerman]

Lu,

All of my radio adapters still use the CM119A chips. While they are not pin for pin compatable with the URI, I feel they work 
well and have a superior feature set:

For use with the GM300, you might take a look at the RIM_Lite that plugs directly in the back of that radio: (RIM Maxtrac)

I’m using Kenwood next edge repeaters and I have several of them. I’m finally getting around in adding a node to my Marathon Florida repeater and discovered the hard way that the URIB will not work properly I called and found out that they change the chipset and it is not as sensitive. Just wanting if anyone else had experienced this and what the resolution might be?
