I have a LDH Electronics voter to auto select the best received signal.
The use of multiple receivers should
give excellent coverage in most of Putnam
County (at least
with a mobile). Please remember that radio is weird.
Just because you are closer to a particular receiver, that doesn't mean
that you will have a better signal into that
receiver. All of the remotes require a 123.0 Hz CTCSS tone for access.
This repeater is a member of the Florida Crown Emergency Network
, and is linked to the W4IZ repeaters in Jacksonville,
expanding coverage to the North and East.
