You might want to look at for some more idea's. You will need a program to operate the computer. A radio - such as a Yaesu 857D, A internet connection - if you wish to connect it via IRLP, Echo link etc. You will need a tower, some hardline, a power supply, a controller, a building to keep it in, some sort of power source 120 / 240 VAC or 12 VDC and solar panels and batteries. §97.213 Telecommand of an amateur station. §97.103 Station licensee responsibilities. §97.13 Restrictions on station location.

I have even seen it done with a cell phone - but then again, if you only owned the one - that is $25.00 a month for a phone that does nothing but sit there. Some would require a 220 mhz link frequency - which could be accessed by you only - with secret codes - or a telephone link with a private unpublished number. When used as a remote base - that is technically a repeater.Īlthough you are the only one using it, because others could have access to it, you have to have some type of controller - which would allow it to identify every 10 or 15 minutes, you would need some kind of link - which could control it - turn it on / shut it off - if stuck in transmit, or the internet crashed.
