<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">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.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I've got any number of</span>
<span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">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.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">If you would, can you offer hookup directions (not to the RTCM, I know that part), but to whatever radio you are using?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Thanks in advance,</span></p>
