Remote Base Transceiver Mode

In the remote base mode, the CAT-1000B is optimized to operate a transceiver as a

remote base controlled through the repeater input. If full control of the repeater is

desired through the remote base receiver, the control bridge must be turned on from

the repeater side. Use the same control bridge command described in the link

transceiver mode section. When a MF-1000 Serial Interface card is connected to the

CAT-1000B at J2 the CAT-1000B will support BCD or Push Button tuning of the remote

base transceiver.

Repeater With Doug Hall RBI-1 Transceiver

In this configuration the CAT-1000B supports a repeater and the Doug Hall RBI-1

Interface to control the Kenwood mobile transceivers. The RBI-1 converts the serial

data from the CAT-1000B to the format require to control the Kenwood transceivers.

All connections to the Kenwood transceivers are made through the microphone jack. In

addition to frequency, offset, and CTCSS tone selection, transmitter power can be

remotely controlled through the repeater input.
