"Just another note about using mobile radios in a repeater. Yes, their IFs were wide (stagger-tuned) to allow good function across the band coverage.
However, since in single-frequency repeater use, all that is needed is to sharpen the tuning to greatly improve selectivity and sensitivity. Same with the front end.
Thoughts?"

Thoughts?? Yes.? Could you list some of the FM mobile radios that use stagger-tuned IF's that you can sharpen the tuning to greatly improve selectivity and sensitivity?
Also, it would be interesting to see a page of alignment instructions that explain how to stagger-tune the IFs for good across the band coverage.
