Most of the exciters I use in repeater service, or hot spot for
matter, have a TOT in the firmware. I crank them all the way up.
Sometimes that is not as long as I would like but I feel better. As
Kevin says, there are USB radio interfaces available with timers.
The rules in the US may have changed but I remember a time when a
repeater required a control channel on 220 MHz and above. But I'm
old (licensed in 1969) and things change. The "belt and suspenders"
approach can be a good thing.<br>

using DmKeng URIx for both repeaters on the

in the open position but the UHF repeater was

There are no versions of Asterisk/app_rpt along with
hardware that are stable enough to prevent this
condition from ever happening. <br>
<br>
You may want to consider a radio adapter that
disables the PTT when the application has crashed or
stopped, there's a hardware malfunction, or a
communications issue with the radio adapter. The
URI doesn't currently have this functionality, but
there are several others that do.<br>
