Bet this would make a great inexpensive repeater when out hiking or camping. You could also do the offsets and DTMF/DCS code and use Rattlegram to keep the commoners from know your convo.

[@Commodium]

Yup!

[@brassmanbart5076]

Instruction sheet would be great!

I did this about 25 years ago with some similar device from Radio Shack and an HTX 2M radio. I still have the radio (they were quite good radios), and I bet my junk box probably still has the repeater in it. It worked well, and I kept it around for emergencies. I think it even had a landline connection to create radio to telephone links, so,etching that was popular before cell phones.

[@Commodium]

That would be awesome to find again!

Having had three SureCom SR-112s over the years. They are suppose to be able to save voice mail and transmit a prerecorded massage at a preset time period. I've never been able to make those functions work. My trick, which makes me no friends. Is set the radio on the SureCom SR-112 to the GMRS repeater tones and duplex frequencies. Walk or drive some distance away. Identify into the GMRS repeater duplex which feeds into the 2nd radio and the Surecom which retransmits the message back trough the GMRS repeater and back to me. Twice I've had repeaters owners who where antisocial become social and use naughty words and tell me where to insert my SureCom.🥶🥴😟

Very didactic no nonsense content 👍🏻

Humans. What would we do without the sad slices of ham.

[@Commodium]

I believe that's "Salt Cured Ham"

[@brassmanbart5076]

Rattlegram works well with baofeng radios.

[@N9YSQ]

So does RTTY, FLDIGI MODES, HELLSCHREIBER, AFSK, SSTV, MCW, WINlink, FT8( Though it may be a waste on the band you are on with FM ).

[@lousadventures2111]

what needs to be done with the sr-112? any programming or just turn it on and play?

[@Commodium]

It is pretty much plug and play. It does have features for periodic announcements such as repeater id and such. That isn’t difficult and is programmed by using DTMF tones on a handheld radio

[@gregorysloat4258]

How about a link to Part I for those of us who just stumbled onto Part II? I realize I can look up your UA-cam channel and then look through all your videos to find Part I, but it would be so much simpler just to include the link. Thanks.
