I am able to transmit from the MBITR to the ICOM on channel 1 at 146.03 MHz. This works in both FM and NB, and with any value entered in for CTCSS. I am yet unable to figure the freq/settings for RX from the ICOM to the MBITR. I am hoping this will be solved when I recieve the programming software/cables for the repeaters and individual ICOM RT's.

I am willing to try to make some antenna's that cover the 146-174 MHz range. I ordered a 5/8 wavelength TRAM antenna to see how it is constructed, hoping to learn a bit more about antenna theory and how to apply it a little bit further than the basics learned in the Q course. Does anyone have ideas/blueprints?
