Kenwood Info

When adding a Kenwood repeater to the network… 2 things are required.

a) you MUST turn off the Over the Air Alias on both the repeater and any users radios.  If you don’t, there is a better than 50% chance that NO icom radio will hear your call which can be pretty frustrating when you’re on a WW linked system.

b) your repeater MUST run Very Narrow on the Digital side.  Icom does not support 12.5khz digital, only 6.25 and so the 2 systems are not compatible unless they both are set for 6.25khz… this is a Kenwood repeater setting btw.

Ok, so it’s probably time that I created some form of table of who’s what, where :)…

We just brought up a new Kenwood site today on VHF and Norm in Tallahassee will be adding a UHF site to that a bit later.
