Likely using split frequencies for a digital repeater. We have 4 of
them in the Pacfic Northwest, 3 operational on UHF, the one on VHF we
lost the repeater council coordination so it is sitting idle.

Our repeater council expires corrdinations after 5 years, repeater on
the air or not if not renewed for a fee.

Thanks Gary. I will contact JAN crystals and see if they know the type of
crystals and
frequency needed for the TEKK KS-960 transceiver.

Yes, I suspect 433.100+ Mhz is for some sort of repeater. But I don't know
whether it is still
around. I am still trying to find out whether there is any 70 cm packet
activity left here
in Ottawa, Canada.

Since I have two of these TEKK radios. (I got two for the price of one). I
may be the only one on 9600 baud packet. hi

If my suspicion is correct and there is no digital repeater on 433.100+ Mhz,
I am probably better off getting crystals for simplex operation.

Do you know what are the more popular frequencies on 70 cm for simplex 9600
baud packet?


Rob

No I am sorry I don't know of popular simplex 9600 frequencies. All of
my 9600 operation is through a digital repeater here. Make sure you
set the deviation for no more that 3 KHz.
