New DMR Repeater

I will be receiving a Motorola XPR8400 this week.  It’ll spend some time on the bench, but as soon as I can get an antenna up and duplexers tuned, I’ll be putting it on the air.  Right now, my network affiliation is up in the air, as I’m not sure if I’m going to hop on board the DMR-MARC network since we already have another high profile repeater there.  I’ve been looking at the DCI network.

 

I will update this post as I make progress.  I intend to get the repeater up and running and joined to the network, but will likely run it from the bench into a dummy load for a few days while I work out any bugs.

 

Frequency coordination is also pending and subject to change.  See the repeater info page for details.
