Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio unlike Motorola.

Thread starter Josh Start date Mar 4, Status Not open for further replies. Josh Member. And guess who it's owned by. Kevin Bondy. Oh boy, a new toilet on the air overflowing with feces. Josh said:. Those two have been getting jammed for the past few weeks probably by Kevin , so 'lord and savior' Kevin put up this repeater on Saddle Peak to provide a jam-free sanctuary.

It's nice to have something I can hit from my house that actually has users on it. Unfortunately, it's yet another hard to use without getting jammed. I've met Mr. Mitnick and he's a very nice guy. In simplex mode: one HT is transmitting on a frequency and the other HT is receiving on the same frequency.

There is no second transmission to overwhelm the receiver of the second HT; only the one signal. In repeater mode, the first HT is transmitting on The second HT must differentiate between two received signals: the signal you want to receive on Hence the HTs signal washes out the reception of the repeater's signal on the second HT. How much is far enough away? Differing factors are at play here: The power of the HT transmitter; the distance between the HTs and the distance and power from the repeater.

There is no second transmission to overwhelm the receiver; only the one signal. Hence the second HT must differentiate between two received signals: the more powerful signal from the HT and the signal from the repeater many miles away.

Thanks for the explanation, although some of it still does not make sense to my novice brain. But it also reinforces the old adage of getting what you pay for. In time I may look into better quality radios. A definite deficit to these is the lack of weather durability, kinda defeats the purpose of emergency communications if they are only designed for pristine conditions. There are also relatively inexpensive HTs from China that have water-resistant and even waterproof specifications.

MichaelLAX, you're explanation of desense, and especially the difference between simplex and repeater behavior in that context, is very well written. Very good explanation. When our local elmer gives a Tech class one of the last day hands on class demonstrations is each student actually using HT's brought in by other club members under their direct supervision. This is done in the parking lot right under the repeater. I guess we have been lucky with the hardware volunteered.

Thank you! This is the best explanation I have read to date on the differences between superheterodyne vs SoC transceivers. I am brand new into GMRS and recently received my license. I trying to soak up as much education as I can, to make intelligent decisions going forward. While it has very appealing bells and whistles, I was surprised disappointed?
