Which mobile radios can be turned into a repeater though a RICK connection? Thanks.

I use 16pin Maxtrac radios , The pins are programmable in RSS to give COR output for the RICK. I use a vhf for rx and a uhf for tx thru a RICK as link recievers for my 2 meter repeater, They work very well.

Just about any radio with a 16-pin connector can be used. Keep in mind some radios such as the M120/130/GTX/LCS don't have programmable pins & can't be used as a receiving radio without modification. Radios that don't have any issues would include Maxtrac/GM300 (16 channel)/CDM series/M1225 series/CM series/SM120/M214/M216.

There's likely others in both catagories.

See mt post below, I can not get a CM200 4 channel to worl correctly with a Rick. The CM will go into transmit all the time. The PTT line of the CM is seeing ground for some reason from the rick.
