Re: Use the mobile as a HT repeater...

Sounds like he blew the finals by running with a piss-poor/damaged antenna... I can't see how "running crossband too much" would blow it up... (but I've never blown up the finals of a radio before, so...)

Sounds like crossbanding on a monoband antenna.

It could have been from overheating. I know he was a big fan of crossbanding and one day i asked him how the radio was working and he said the 2M side quit working due to the PA dying.

Is there anyway to use my HT to use my mobile as a remote? So I could sit in the house and use my HT to talk to the mobile, and have the mobile put out the power....

Do some looking into the Motorola PAC/RT system, some of them can be had for a song and are designed for your application.

You don't have to use commercial grade equipment. I bought a motorola spectra, but can't do a thing with it because I dont have any computers to program the stupid thing.

What model? I have some Spectra RIB cords and might be able to program it for ya.
