It's usually pretty quiet on the 147.33 repeater, but during the week you'll hear a few of us regulars there on and off. It has a pretty wide coverage for its location and has been worked from Ann Arbor and Richmond. If you scan P25 you'll see my digital ID of 2820112 which also has other relevance specifically for me (some might figure it out).
