Repeater Stations |
When you purchase your Ritron communications equipment from Falcon Direct, you not only get low prices, but VALUE as well. We take care of our customers by keeping them informed on applicable FCC regulations and providing assistance when required. Of equal importance, we don't play games with pricing by offering "specials" that have just expired when you call or advertising prices that are subject to special conditions. If post sale service is important to you, click here for additional information on the services we provide for our customers. You don't have to purchase in quantity to get our best price. You get it if you only purchase one! You don't have to pay extra for programming. We note that one supplier offers a price that is apparently lower than ours, but hidden in the details when you order is a twenty dollar per unit programming charge. We don't try to trick you with gimmicks. Our objective is to give you the best VALUE. We recognize there are situations where additional discounts may be warranted based on quantity or simply price matching. The fact is that we are a top tier reseller of Ritron products and we can match prices with anyone and still give you the best service in the business. We welcome the opportunity of serving YOU! You can purchase the Liberty or RadioNexus repeaters on line by clicking on the applicable Buy-Me buttons below. You can use your American Express, Discover, MasterCard, or VISA. Purchase orders also acceptable from approved accounts. A word about the FCC licensing All 2-way radios used for business and governmental use must be licensed excluding Family Radio Service (FRS) radios - period, no exceptions, ever, for anybody except one. The MURS (Multi Use Radio Service) is available for anyone to use - business, personal or public safety. Five frequencies are available in the VHF 150 - 154 MHz band for fixed station, mobile, handheld or paging use. General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) frequencies are NOT approved for commercial or governmental use. The so called color dot frequencies DO require an FCC license for use. All licensed base stations (Stationary Radio Units) must transmit their assigned station call letters in voice or Morse code at least once every hour. Substantial fines can result from improper operation. Falcon Direct can assist you in obtaining an FCC license. An optional accessory is available for Patriot fixed station equipment that will provide automatic station identification for licensed systems. Call us at 1.800.489.2611 for additional information. A word about equipment compatibility Radios used with repeaters must be field programmable (normally with a PC, software and cable) to convert to paired frequency operation required for repeater operation. Fixed frequency radios such as the Motorola CLS, CP100, SP10 and SP21, VL50, XTS, and XTN are not adaptable for repeater operation.
Again, without getting technical, let us share some additional information relating to repeaters. A repeater, unlike a handheld or mobile radio, transmits and receivers simultaneously (i.e. "repeats" in real time). In order to accomplish this function, we must either use separate antennas (as is shown with the RadioNexus VHF units above). Otherwise, and more commonly, we use an internal device known as a duplexer. This device (incorporated into the UHF Liberty repeater allows us to use a single antenna IF the transmit and receiver antennas are separated by at least 3.5 MHz for VHF or 4.5 MHz for UHF. The Liberty repeater is not available in VHF, primarily because of case size restrictions. The RadioNexus is available for either VHF or UHF, or even VHF to UHF cross band since it does not use a duplexer. Additionally, RadioNexus allows the use of close spaced (less than 3.5 MHz) frequencies. This makes RadioNexus ideally suited for VHF license free MURS channels. Both the Liberty and the RadioNexus can be used on the 2 watt color dot channels and be programmed to other commercial or public safety channels as desired for either 25 kHz or 12.5 kHz spacing. Custom antenna systems are optionally available for more range. More powerful repeaters are also available for longer range. These repeaters are most often mounted in an area of high elevation with power ranging from 40 to 100 watts. Prices range from $1,895 to $4,495 with antenna systems designed to meet specific coverage requirements. If you have a need for long range coverage, please call us at 1.800.489.2611. |
