Default duplexers, antennas, repeaters

Yep. If the repeater is going in any of the buildings where I have
equipement, it will need a cavity and ferrite isolator to prevent
intermod problems. I know of one building that demands Heliax, no
braided coax including LMR-xxx coax, all silver plated connectors, and
other draconian anti-intermod measures. Tempest like packaging on all
computahs. All I can say is that it works (if you can afford it).


I've never seen that anywhere. Intermod is a math problem. No amount of
silver plating will fix bad coordination.
