In the rack are mounted the ID-RP2C repeater controller (top), the ID-RP2000V 2m repeater (middle), transmitting about 25 watts, and an Astron 20A power supply (bottom) providing 12VDC power. The duplexer was tuned by W5NCD Larry to 146.88/146.28 MHz. These "cans" allow the repeater to "separate" the incoming and outgoing signals, as in any repeater system. The D-Star Repeater antenna is a Diamond CP22E, fed with RG-8U coax and installed atop this 80-ft tower located on Speegleville Road. It is visible on the top-left side of the tower in this photo.
