All, Are there any options for controllers that have 4 or more ports other than the RLC4 or RLC Club lineup? Robert N5QM
Geoff, I am trying to run two repeaters off of one controller, each having it's own node if possible. Our group does alot of experimentation, so being able to connect other radios and such to the system easily would be very nice. We also have a need for telemetry inputs and outputs, schedules, and the normal stuff. I am starting to think the RLC Club series may be our best bet due to the number of ports available, but OUCH.

Why not use app_rpt with four nodes/repeaters defined? Seems it would be less fuss. Robert Garcia <robert@n5qm.com> wrote:

I have 4 full duplex nodes on one Mini ITX pc and works like a champ! Does everything a hardware controller does. We have pulled several hardware controllers and replaced them with App_Rpt boxes! Pc cost about $125 + 4 URIs = $400 total cost. Dont know what the Hardware controllers are going for but it much cheaper and more flexible. Jon RQ On 7/24/2013 12:48 AM, Robert a. Poff wrote:

Thanks to everyone who answered. I'm going to give it a go with app_rpt only and see how it turns out. No need to throw an extra component into the mix. Robert N5QM On Wed, Jul 24, 2013 at 6:56 AM, Jon Rorke <jrorke@cogeco.ca> wrote:
