I notice there is a repeater set up on GMRS 6 that comes in strongly in my area (southwest CT). No one ever seems to use it, and it periodically IDs. Any idea whose it is?

Copy the ID and look it up in the FCC online database. If it ID's in Morse code then copy the dots and dashes and lookup a Morse code chart then lookup the call.

FYI nobody "owns" a frequency their are licensed to use a frequency by the FCC.

I can copy and send 25 wpm cw; so the ID is not a problem. Just thought some of the users on the board would know off hand, de W1AMJ

Thanks for the info. I'll follow the link provided and see which repeater ID matches which listing. I live just south of Waterbury, so NY and LI are too far to copy under normal UHF conditions without a really good yagi.

How true, not everyone wants to Advertise, come onto my repeater.
It's sad enough people do anyway, calling for the owner and asking permission over the air.

Curious as well...

It could be unlisted on that GMRS site, maybe??

I come from the same point of view.

I'd keep it private for that reason, if I had one.
