You can use them as gap fillers between the repeater and a dead spot inside a 
building.

for you and your hunting buddies at the deer lease for the couple of hours the 
battery would last...  I've never used crossband repeat on an HT.
Maybe you could use it to extend the range of your DMR handheld talking to your 
hotspot?

Looks like a nice radio but one question, WHY would you need or want cross band 
repeat on an HT?  I’ve used that feature before in a RL emergency condition as 
well as with our work with the ’96 Paralympics but I used a mobile car radio 
with the 50 watts out.  We were having issues with having to use the full power 
modes on the HT’s and draining the batts on them really quickly.  Being able to 
switch to low power on the HT’s extended our “excursion” times a great deal.

Maybe someone else would have an idea where this would be handy?

 

Just me trying to learn  😊
