Repeaters are often installed and maintained by radio clubs,
sometimes with the cooperation of local businesses involved in the
communications industry. Compared to simplex communication,
you can usually transmit over much greater distances by using a
repeater. Repeaters are typically located on mountain tops or other
elevated locations. They generally operate at higher ERP (Effective
Radiated Power) than a typical station. This combination of
elevation and high ERP allows communications over considerable
distances.
