Sixty-meter repeaters typically use a 1 MHz frequency separation between input and output, while 2-meter repeaters commonly employ a **600 kHz** split and 70-centimeter repeaters use a **5 MHz** offset. This article details the fundamental technical principles of amateur voice repeaters, explaining how they extend VHF/UHF communication range by receiving on one frequency and simultaneously retransmitting on another. It covers essential components such as receivers, transmitters, filters, and antennas, often situated on elevated locations for optimal coverage. The resource delves into the critical challenge of _desensing_—where the repeater's strong transmit signal overpowers its own receiver—and the engineering solutions employed, including antenna separation and the use of high-Q cavity filters. It also explores various control and timing systems, from basic squelch activation to more sophisticated microcontroller-based boards that manage functions like voice identification, time-out timers, and fault protection. Different access methods are discussed, including open access, toneburst, CTCSS subtone, and DTMF, each offering distinct advantages for managing repeater usage and mitigating interference. Furthermore, the article examines repeater linking, both conventional RF methods and modern internet-based solutions, highlighting how linking expands coverage and promotes activity across multiple repeaters or bands. It introduces less common repeater types such as 'parrot' repeaters, which use a single frequency and digital voice recording, and linear translators, capable of relaying multiple signals and modes simultaneously across different bands, often found in amateur satellites.
