<html><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>I have been thinking about this for a long but have yet to start building out a system. My need is for three commercial, frequency agile (pre programmed is fine) radios on a mountain top site connected back civilization via a long haul wifi connection. I looked at the Maxtrac due to it's cost and 16 pin connector. For commercial service it is wideband only and does not have what I call a good method of changing channel. If you move up to a GM300 or CDM you get the same 16 or 20 pin connector but 4 of those pins will switch frequency based on logic levels on those 4 pins. I think the URI has 3 pins available so I could switch to 8 channels on the radio. There are other radios that have this as well like Icom repeaters and Kenwood tk-X90 (6 low 7 VHF 8 UHF)</div><div><br></div><div>I had always assumed that this functionality was available in app_rpt.</div><div><br></div><div>Brian Kassa</div><div><br>On Sep 29, 2010, at 11:18 AM, "Corey Dean N3FE" <<a href="mailto:n3fe@repeater.net">n3fe@repeater.net</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><div></div><blockquote type="cite"><div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">That's
an interesting question. Obviously the USB device has a couple of outputs on<br>
it that certainly could be accessed by the chan_usbradio and/or chan_simpleusb<br>
modules and controlled through app_rpt. The URI was also designed with this in<br>
mind, being that we brought all the outputs out to the connector.<br>
<br>
In nearly 10 years that this project has been going on, you are the FIRST
person to<br>
even ask this question or show any interest in using these outputs. This is the
main<br>
reason why I never bothered to implement this functionality.<br>
<br>
Sure, it can be done. Yeah, Ill work on this. Heck, even if you're the only
person that<br>
ever uses it, at least you can benefit from the work involved.<br>
