repeater

Hello all, I have been given an...interesting...challenge to work through. I was recently informed that an agency I am working with will be receiving the new Harris Unity system for the Incident Management Teams. That said, one of our biggest necessities is the ability to deploy portable...

I am just thinking one day, and the thought came to me (and I am in no way knowledgeable of radio networks) do law enforcement use some kind of repeater in the police car to help amplify what is coming out of their handhelds. So if the handheld can only transmit 10 miles, the repeater in the car...

Not sure if this forum is the correct one to post this thread, moderators please move this thread if needed! I am in the exploration stages of establishing a 2 way radio system with the purpose of enabling freelance news/fire photographers to communicate while out working in the field. The...

Why is it that the Ham radio repeater in Killingworth requires an input PL (110.9) but when it broadcasts its own identifier, it broadcasts with no PL? Is this common practice with Ham radio? I am not at all familiar with amateur radio and only noticed when I was monitoring the channel with a PL...

First off if this is in the wrong section my apologize it looked like the most fitting! I am looking into getting radios for my company in the near future as we expanded & start providing services in the county, My first thought was to try & use unlicensed radios from like radio shake, how ever...

Hi everyone, new here. I have a quick question. My family and I are currently in the process of moving, and thus have packed away all of my scanners already, thinking that there wouldn't be any significant weather to worry about. Now look at tomorrow. Now to my question, I have looked everywhere...

The more I get into scanning, the more aware I have become of communications towers. I have noticed this one tower but am unable to determine who's tower it is and what comms operate off of this tower. Address: 571-579 3rd Rd East, Stoney Creek, ON Co-ordinates : 43.205895, -79.729886 (if you...

I'm looking for a stand alone vehicular repeater. It would need to be UHF and a min of 2 watt. Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to purchase a 5-10watt GMRS repeater. I have seen several repeaters that people have built out of mobile or handheld radios but I am not a master with electronics. I would need a plug and repeater type. As in receiver, transmitter, duplexer, controler, and power supply all in one...

MOD...I hope this is the right place to post, please move if not. I am setting up a GMRS repeater 462/467 UHF (incase someone does not know the freqs.) and Im trying to choose an antenna. My station is going to be located at my buisness, which is a 50' by 100' steel building aprox 20' hi, I...

Hello Fellow Radio Folks, I'm wondering if any of you would know the whereabouts of the 7 Mile Ridge Repeater Site. I was out for a drive last night and saw a radio tower located in Saint Arthur, which is about 9.5 Km SW of Campbellton, NB. I had a hunch that it may be it, being the large...

I hope I'm in the right forum for this. If not kindly point me to the correct forum. Is this list up to date? (I went to http://www.wx4tn.org/ but it didn't give me any freq/repeater lists) Severe Weather Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference District 7 - Upper East Tennessee...

They operate on 462.600 will a output PL of 151.4. At the begining of every hour, the station automated voice gives a time check. I also heard an automated voice say New york, New jersey, Connecticut. I dont know if this is a grandfather business, but its barely skimming me in Northern Brooklyn.

The Aiken HAM repeaters have gone thru a few changes. Many of those changes are NOT reflected in the current ARRL Repeater guide(of course) and also changes have not been made to many Ham Club web site listings. The below is current, please update your files as you see fit. - Aiken repeater...

Hello gang, I have a few questions about some local ham repeaters: Does anyone know when the 147.270 Mt. Disappointment repeater will be back up? Does anyone know what is wrong with the 145.300 repeater? Do they accept guest check-ins for the 147.330 net? Does MARS 447.820 repeater have a...

I know their are many GMRS repeaters on various mountaintops within my area that have little or no usage. Can anyone tell me what it usually costs to rent or lease a tone on a repeater? I understand it varies from site to site, but I have absolutely no idea what the price range would be. Several...
