•Connectors: you will need a series of connectors that go from your
radio to <blank> where blank is probably a female BNC or male VHF
(PL-259) connector. If your radio
is SMA, it is suggested that you get a piece of cable with SMA on one end to
act as strain relief, rather than going directly into a connector.

•Most environments are noisier than you want them to be (and the
sending signal is less clear than you want it to be). A headset and boom mic can make things
easier for all parties.

•Make sure you have a current set of frequencies in use in your
area. Create a quick reference
card and carry it with you (even though you already have the frequencies
programmed into your radio). It
is also helpful to carry a copy of the repeater guide and the net guide.
