Trying to come up with way to make a simple hang-timer for two radius M100's tied togather. Say about 3 to 4 sec. I used the setup from Batlabs (Linking two Radius). I also found if you don't add the diode to the Tx radio it won't let the Rx radio keyup if the Tx radio receves a sig. Setup works great but I would like to have a little hang-time. Any help on this would be great.
Thanks,

For the M100 series radios, there is a RICK kit that does have the "hang time" and I build each one for a paticular radio configuration, like five pin logic board radios like the M100.
I would like more info on the RICKs you make.
Could you send me more info and price? Also will the MOTOROLA HLN3333B RICK work with the two M100's I have? As I said they are the 5 pin type and this rick has the 16 pin plugs. Thanks for your time.

When using the Motorola RICK with the M100 series radios the RICK has to use the audio from the receiver to key the other radio's transmitter, with the assoiated VOX delays and problems.
The Motorola RICK costs up to four times as much as ours at $100 which includes all audio/ptt interconnect cables that plug in to your radios.
Our RICK kit does not use the audio/VOX scheam, but uses a true COS/TOS signal from the M100 for repeater PTT. It has a preset "hang time" of two seconds and can be custom made for other times and radio types.
