+Hambone 0 Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Just wondering, is there a talk around freq. for GW4. Is it better to go on the national simplex channel on 2m, or is there another channel, or a repeater that would be better. Quote Link to post

There are 10 repeaters in Rawleigh and I am sure a lot more in the surronding area. I use the local repeaters to get to know other hams and to talk to the local hams that I know. I only use the national simplex frequency when traveling. Our local RACES also uses simplex during our monthly practice net. I also carry the repeater directory with me when traveling so that I can use a local repeater if necessary. Hope this helps. Feel free to contact me. 73's Bob, W1ACX Quote Link to post
+Hambone 0 Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 I was actually thinking of Dallas, TX during GW4. It looks like Dallas' main repeater is 146.88 with + offset, and PL tone of 110.9. If anyone is going to GW4 you will probably find me monitoring this freq. If anyone wants QSO, depending on location we may be able to go to simplex. I only have an HT though, so my range is very limited on simplex. 73's Quote Link to post
+Marky 0 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Best bet would be to get a local geocaching Ham to recommend a local repeater that is relatively unused and open. --Marky - K6FTF Quote Link to post
