There is one legal problem with using a dual-band rig as a crossband
repeater.
Both the 2-meter and 70-cm sides are ham transmitters, and must be ID'd
every 10
minutes and at the end of every series of transmissions, just like
every other
station and repeater.


The sure-fire method I use is to use a dual-band HT and go over to the
2-meter input side and ID once every ten minutes. Thus all frequencies
are covered for ID.


Doesn't an ID originating on the 70-cm link end up being
transmitted on *both* frequencies? Am I missing something?
