Digital Voice Links

Beginning to delve into the realm of the digital voice modes.

Below are my links of interest...  so that I can find them again when I actually have the time to work on it!

Repeater Builder USB-RIM


Repeater Builder USB-RIM Lite

    RIM-RC210/RLC: Schematic
    Special Limited Time Price - $50 
    This version is customized to be plug-and-play with the ARCOM RC-210 repeater controller. It is also compatable with RLC controllers from Audio Test Solutions (Formerly Link Communictaions). Simply plug the module onto an unused controller port, configure the controller and AllStar config files, and you are ready to explore the world of AllStar linking.
    **Specific connection instructions will be available soon.**

    RIM-Maxtrac-RM: Schematic
    Special Limited Time Price - $60 
    This product is VERY similar to the RIM-Maxtrac. The RM stands for Repeater Maker. The RM adds a second 16 pin module to connect to a second receive only radio. This allows for one radio to be the receiver and the other to be the transmitter in a repeater type setup. The RM version does NOT support channel steering.
  • All of the new Lite version products still inclue the missing pulse detector circuitry to avoid stuck PTT lines. By default, the heartbeat and PTT outputs are configured to allow the missing pulse detector to automatically disable the PTT line in the event of a stuck PTT due to USB PC communications failure.

  • All of these new boards offer an optional serial EEPROM that can be used to store radio/repeater settings.*

  • Courteous and friendly customer service. While product documentation is currently being written, the user's manuals for these products will follow in the same lines as the rest of the RB products in being straight forward and thorough.
  • * Software implementation dependant
