[arm-allstar] link radios for an allstar node

[Gervais Fillion]

Some radios dont like to go under certain tx pwr,,
My Pheonix at 20 watts gets so hot and at 35 it stay way cooler but need a fan .

they produce spurious for example,,Ge Master 2 PA are known for that.

The first was a 25 watt Radius reduced to 15 watts, which lasted 7 years
then gave up.  The 2nd was a Maxtrac 45 watt reduced to 20 watts which
lasted another 5 years.  Both were fan cooled.  I also have other 440 & 900
Maxtracs which continue to work.  Not exactly sure what fried the final
PA.  A friend suggested removing the PA and running on the 2 watt driver
only.  I'm going to try that when I get a chance.
