2M is doing fine here on the HT. 70cm is a bit weak but I’d expect that. I can get to both with the FT-60. For what it’s worth, Yaesu recommends 20W max continuous duty on the DR1. We might consider adding amps out the output for both repeaters and keeping the repeater drive levels fairly low.

73,

>>> Today Eric W4OTN and I went to Mt. Hope and changed the 2 meter repeater over to our new SystemFusion repeater and placed another beta machine on our 440 pair. Both of these are set to auto in auto out. Try them out and see if you have any changes for the net so we can get an idea of the results.
