I swear, after all the time and grief various people put into repeaters,
between the kerchunkers, the noise bursts, the lids, the fights for space,
the audio troubles, the attempts to run things on a shoestring instead of real
money, the neat gizmos to hang off the repeater and controller, voters, links,
programming controllers, phone patches, having to move for various reasons,
co-channel machines and users, (both legit and of the "I'm gonna put a
repeater on this pair, go ahead and try and stop me" kind who know better, but
don't care to be a good neighbor), the space they take up in your
basement/garage/whatever, ....
I figured out today why we do this thing called repeaters.
It's so we can always have something to play with.
Now, granted, right now I'm physically tired out after caffeine -induced
insomnia, so it sounds like sour grapes. But tomorrow, it'll be :
"The reason we do this thing called repeaters is so that we can always have
something to play with!! Yeah!!! Life is great!!!!"
