<DIV>Like if I did not had enough to do , my club is talking about making a
remote base, for the club members, that can’t have HF antenna at home, from our
repeater site.. (large and tall building downtown Montreal) </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>When I say I have enough, someone is asking me to take my homebrew dstar
repeater full blown on a montain top with a msf5000 as the work horse..Now that
will be fun... ;-). And the club members cant wait that I install the
allstarlink link on our vhf and uhf repeater...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So About the remote base, since we will have a server with 2 node at the
repeater site, why not use a third node for the remote base..</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For the repeaters I am all ok, but for the remote base, now I am in search
of information.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>what would a user been able to do with a node setup as a remote
base??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>what radio would be a good fit for lets say 160 to 10 meter
opearation??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyone with hand on experience can provide some good input? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I had for some time my own remote base at home ( I travel a lot and like to
operate from the hotel where I stay while traveling for work..)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But I am using HRD to remote control a IC-706MKIIG connected to a dual band
V-U antenna on the high freq output and an DX-LB+ for the HF..</DIV>
<DIV>for transmiting audio I am using team speak running on vox on the radio
side and I use a PTT at the computer side, its working ok, but I dont think this
would be a good setup in a club...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyone can help a bit??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
