Ham Radio AllStar Link Echolink Simplex Node 440MHz 70cm Motorola Spectra

Description

This listing is for a complete simplex node for the 70cm amateur radio band. Allstar and echo link work and frequencies anywhere between 440-450MHz are valid.
This node utilizes the top of the line Motorola Spectra UHF transceiver, and the radio has been personally modified by me for use as a allstar simplex node.
Please enter your programming configuration here when you are ready!

For me to construct and configure it mag take up to 7 business days to ship out the node but likely shorter.
The frequency, AllStar Link configuration, and EchoLink configuration is included for free.
To setup,
1. Connect Raspberry pi to internet connection ( Preferably ethernet )
2. Power on node
3. Go to the frequency with your 70cm mobile or portable radio, and enjoy worldwide connections. If you put a good antenna on the node at a good location, the range can exceed 10 miles, and you will make use out of a very quiet radio band.
A short instruction sheet will be included.
INCLUDES:
Tested Motorola Spectra Mobile Radio for link radio
USB interface hand built to interface audio and signalling connections to the raspberry pi.
Raspberry pi running AllStar link, and custom configured to your CallSign configuration
Micro USB to USB cable for the pi power
Motorola Power cable pigtails
Mini UHF to SO-239 so you can plug in a PL259 based antenna.
Please submit programming info shortly after you pay, so I know what to put in your radio.
Each Radio is individually tested and in spec to:
TX Power: 6 to 20 WATTS (Can go to 45 watts but will overheat for long winded conversation overheating)
RX Sensitivity: -122dBm Squelch
Frequency Error: <0.05KHz
I can build a repeater out of two of these mobile radios if desired.
