This system comes with two new digital radios, an FTM-400D and an FT1D for use by the club members.
If you don't have a digital radio yet, don't worry, System Fusion repeater should switch it self out of digital mode and back to the usual FM analog mode so you can continue to use the radio you already have. When it hears a digital radio it switches back to a digital repeeater. The analog output has an 88.5 pl tone so analog listeners can set their receive squelch so they will not have to listen to the digital noise.
Due to confusion over what this repeater will or will not do refer to the repeater manual pages 19 and 20 at Repeater Manual
The new and improved System Fusion DR-1X model is here and is being tested by the club.
The Andy Club is not the only area club with a System Fusion repeater.
