The two transceivers will have different functions. One will act as a transmitter, and the other a receiver. The receiver will receive all transmissions on the repeater input frequency and that signal will be sent to both PC computers via audio cable. One PC will send the signal over the internet using EchoLink for internet users to receive. The other PC will send the signal to the transmitter using EchoStation. The radio transmitter will transmit that signal on the repeater output frequency for radio users to receive. The signal coming from the internet links will also be sent to the radio transmitter. The RigBlaster interface will be connected to the transmitter will allow both computers to control the transmitter's PTT function. SEE FIGURE BELOW.
