I want to use 2 Openspot2 in close proximity to each other. 1 Openspot as a DAP-NET transmitter and the other one as a hotspot for DMR / C4FM, etc. Since everything is portable together in a small box, I'm a little worried because both devices sit quite close to each other (maximum distance 2-3 cm ), how I can prevent a mutual disturbance of the signals or how I can prevent a radiation into the other hotspot. The simplest solution would be if you could operate 1 Openspot in the 2 meter band. This is not possible according to the manual. Who has realized such a build-up and could tell me whether a mutual influence takes place, or whether an additional filter could help here.

I'm using 2 openSPOT2s on my desk which are basically stacked on top of each other and have no issues.

DO NOT PUT THEM ON THE SAME FREQUENCY or you (And WE [emoji34]) WILL have problems with QRM (Even if they are on two different protocols)
I say this because they would be SO CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER that QRM is possible EVEN IF they are on different protocols (DAPNET vs. DMR)
If you spend any amount of time at all listening to the QRM that happens when two hotspots are linked together like this & put on TAC 310 when QSOs are taking place is a good example of this

Why do you need 2 Opensot 2's? One will handle both. I have a single Openspot 2 operting on buth DMR and DAPNET. When i'm not busy on DMR (most of the time), the Openspot will automatically change to 439.9874 and transmit Dapnet pages, then shift back. I've seen no issues at all. I'll admit that there is little Dapnet traffic in my area.
