Isn't the aussie CB band UHF?
That makes a big difference.

An HF repeater can cause interference pretty much worldwide.
UHF would only cover a few 10's of miles.
We have the same issues with 6 meter and 10 meter repeaters, though they
are
legal for hams.

Hi Dave.

Tell me please. What remedies are there for such issues in 10 meter? Just
wondering. Or is the inadvertent skip ok with the hams (possibly a welcome
side affect)?

Thanks,

PL tones, and coordination, carefully limiting the number of repeaters in
use, and their power output. They may even control their power according to
band conditions, but I'm not sure on that.
The only repeaters I've worked on, were 2M and higher, so I don't have
direct experience there.

You might look up one of the 10M repeater callsigns, and email the licence
holder, and ask him.

Yeah, the hams are very good at coordination/cooperation. Something
seriously lacking in 11 meters (but that's stating the obvious I guess).

They may even control their power according to
band conditions, but I'm not sure on that.

Yeah, I thought about limiting output power but it seems to me that if I can
talk skip with 500 mw on 11 meters, then scaling back couldn't be much help.
Skip will roll when skip wants to roll. Maybe a high angle of radioation
would allow good local and limit the ability to dx. (anyone with good
antenna theory have ideas on that?)

direct experience there.

Thanks Dave. I'll do that.

This comes from www.copper.com "forums". Apparently, there is a
"repeater" for the chicken band on the air. The link at the very top has
pictures, circuitry and everything! Is this not against the law? :(.

Who cares? They suck used cock anyway. click-click

Hey lol boi, this is a CB newsgroup. ----move on ---------

There are antenna designs that radiate most of their power skyward, high
angle, for short range comms.. I can't recall the name at the moment..

if i remember right the original poster was from canada who posted the
directions for building a repeater. how that affects u.s. users is open
to interpretation.
the other point is how jerry posts 'chicken band' and takes offence when
someone jams him for being anti cb. hypocrite as twisty might say.

All's I can say is good luck with it. Legal or not.
