Default Crossband repeat

In the past I've seen portable, itinerant repeaters ID's by the
USERS....ie: "This K4YZ via K4YZ repeater"....There's no law that
says the ID HAS to come from the repeater itself as long as it's
clearly IDed...If you're only going to be doing this under short term,
"emergency" situations, it's completely legal and will save you having
to mod a rig..


You hit the head on the nail with the emergency comment Steve. A
crossband repeater isn't a good idea for continuous use. So your method
is appropriate for the appropriate use of that type of repeater.
