The BBARC Repeater System

24 minutes and 327 easy steps to a linked repeater system.(0.07 seconds/step)

Introduction

I’m Doug Otoupal, N5HYD. We’re going to build ourselves a

linked repeater system, on paper.

Topics of Discussion

1: A single Repeater. 2: Adding stuff to it. 3: Make a Remote Site or three. 4: Connect everything all together. 5: Add in Hector/FARB/146.820. 6: Look at the whole enchilada. 7: Beeping and Booping.
