We have two sites, one with internet access, and the other does not. The site with internet has a two node Allstar server, with one node connected to the local 2 meter repeater, and the second connected to a 70cm radio used as an audio link to a second 2 meter repeater one mountain range over (knife edge effect... not LOS). The second 2 meter repeater has a mating 70 cm radio to complete the audio link. Linking the two 2 meter repeaters is accomplished in the Allstar server via radio or over the internet. Depending on the range to the remote site, there may be a wi-fi option (wireless access points) within shared bands, using your call sign as the ssid (e.g. Ubiquiti, or Tranzeo). Hope this gives you some idea of the possible.

 

thanks,

Maybe my search-fu needs work. I'm trying to read what or what not my options are for deploying a repeater at a site with no internet access.

The best I can figure is somehow getting it there by my own means.
