Well Neil: 

I would just like to know a summary of its capabilities, if its a good overall repeater etc. 
I'm thinking of buying a Yaesu FT-1900R 2M mobile and I was wondering if there are any capabilities of the repeater that the FT-1900R can take advantage of. 
The C4FM mode, do you have to have a special transceiver like DStar equipped Icoms or would I be able to connect with a standard Yaesu 2M rig and have it linked across the globe or would I have to use echolink, irlp etc? 
We're very excited about this new repeater and look forward to its long service but convincing the club to activate its internet linking service might be another matter. :)
