IrishrepublicanarmY's definitions
1) A device that receives, amplifies (and sometimes reshapes), and retransmits a signal. It is used to boost signal levels and extend the distance a signal can be transmitted. In radio terms, the signal is usally recieved on a input frequency and then retransmitted on a different frequency (output or direct).
2) A network device that repeats signals from one cable onto one or more other cables, while restoring signal timing and waveforms. Repeaters are the most common way to connect local networks together, and can provide either Thinwire or Thickwire connections. They are commonly used to create larger local networks up to a certain limit based on the number of repeaters and the length of the cables.
3) A device inserted at intervals along a circuit to boost, and amplify an analog signal being transmitted. A repeater is sometimes needed because the quality and strength of a signal decays over distance. Repeaters are also used to regenerate a digital signal - "squaring it" and "cleaning it up" - but not changing it. You can regenerate digital signals because technology exists that can separate the actual signal from the noise, regenerating only the signal. No technology exists that can do this with analog signals. The simplest type of LAN interconnection device is a repeater. A repeater moves all received packets or frames between LAN segments. The primary function of a repeater is to extend the length of the network media, i.e. the cable.
4) someone who is repeatedly arrested for criminal behavior
5) a firearm that can fire several rounds without reloading

The Fairfax County Public Schools use digital trunked repeaters that operate in the 800 MHz range for thier school buses.
The criminal (in your case) used a repeater to kill the police officer.

Get the repeatermug. Dual Tone Multiple Frequency. Pressing a button on the keypad of a touch-tone phone generates a pair of tones of specified frequency and duration. The network or the equipment at the other end of the connection (such as a remote control for a phone answering machine, or a telephone interconnect system) detects and interprets these tones. In analog networks, audible tones generated by the network provide the call progress indications to the user. Different tones allow the human ear to interpret the progress of the call. On digital networks (such as PBX or ISDN), the network may send indication messages to the phone to indicate the status of the call, and the phone may generate most tones locally, driven by those messages.

Get the urbanaddictmug. Feb. 13th, the day before Valentine's Day. Because so many people don't have relationships (or do, and they hate Valentine's Day anyway), Feb 13th is the day where single people do nothing, there are no cards, no flowers or anything like that.

Get the singles awareness daymug. The CB antenna i use for freeband 27 MHz operations uses a base loading coil to lower the frequency to the 27 MHz band.

Get the base loadingmug. Freezing rain occurs when the tempurature in the cloud and directly below the cloud are above freezing (32 degrees F), and the ground or surfaces that the rain hits are below 32 degrees. The result is big enough to shut the Washington DC metro area down for a few days.
