1. A system for two-way radio communication comprising:
- (a) a first two-way radio comprising;
(i) a means for selecting and transmitting a signal code to a shared, public base/repeater station; and
(ii) a means for sending two-way radio communication signals to said shared, public base/repeater station;
(iii) a means for receiving two-way radio communication signals from said shared, public base/repeater station;
(b) said shared, public base/repeater station comprising;
(i) a base/repeater station decoder at said shared, public base/repeater station for decoding the signal code from said first two-way radio into a signal that is recognized by a base/repeater station controller located at said shared, public base/repeater station and transferring said signal to said base/repeater station controller via a dedicated connection; and
(ii) wherein said base/repeater station controller comprises a means for receiving said decoded signal from said base/repeater station decoder and correlating said decoded signal to one or more internet addresses associated with at least one target base station by which there is established a bi-directional computer network link with said at least one target base station using said internet address for the exchange of two-way radio communication signals;
(iii) wherein said shared, public base/repeater station further comprises a means for sending and receiving two-way radio communications signals to and from said first two-way radio; and
(c) wherein said at least one said target base station comprises;
(i) a target station controller located at said target base station comprising a means for establishing a bi-directional computer network link with said shared, public base/repeater station for two-way radio communication signals;
(ii) wherein said at least one target base station further comprises a means for sending and receiving two-way radio communication signals to and from a second two-way radio; and
(d) at least one second two-way radio comprising;
(i) a means for receiving two-way radio communication signals from said at least one target base station; and
(ii) a means for sending two-way radio communication signals to said at least one target base station; and
(e) whereby two-way radio communication signals are bi-directionally exchanged directly between said first two-way radio and said second two-way radio via said bi-directional computer network link directly between said shared, public base/repeater station controller and said target station controller.

Abstract
The present invention discloses novel systems and methods for enabling two-way radio communications over a computer network including correlating signals received by a two-way radio networking base/repeater station from a two-way radio to an internet or Internet Protocol address of one or more other base/repeater stations and establishing a computer network link for two-way radio networking communications over a computer network such as the Internet.

11. A method for exchanging two-way radio communication signals between two-way radios via a bi-directional computer network link directly between a shared, public base/repeater station and at least one target base station, said method comprising:
-
(a) transmitting a signal code and two-way radio communication signals from a two-way radio to said shared, public base/repeater station having a controller located at said shared, public base/repeater station; (b) decoding said signal code and correlating said decoded signal code at said shared, public base/repeater station location to one or more internet addresses and establishing a bi-directional computer network link with said at least one target base station using said internet address to exchange two-way radio communication signals; (c) establishing a bi-directional computer network link directly between said shared, public base/repeater station and said at least one target base station having a controller at said at least one target base station through said internet address; (d) transmitting two-way radio communication signals over said computer network link directly to said at least one target base station; (e) transmitting said two-way radio communication signals from said at least one target base station to a second two-way radio;
(f) transmitting two-way radio communication signals from said second two-way radio to said at least one target base station;(g) transmitting two-way radio communication signals from said at least one target base station over said computer network link directly to said shared, public base/repeater station; and (h) transmitting two-way radio communication signals from said shared, public base/repeater station to said first two-way radio. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
