Check out the March 2013 edition of Monitoring Times. It has a lot of info about airshows, to include frequency data for CAP and others.

I've monitored 148.125 active with NACs of 365,356, and 47C. Also 148.150 with a NAC of 375.

I'm thinking 365 might actually be 375 based on the conversion chart, I don't have anything in my records from that direction, hopefully we can pin down those sites.

They're usually pretty good about announcing what repeater they're using during nets, try keeping your scanner on around 6 to 9 on week nights and see if you can hear any activity.

In addition to the Freq's lets get more of the net info in the wiki.

As you said, that is the best time to deceipher which Repeaters are being used.

I found a list, sometime ago, sadly no R-xx info, but it indicated the Repeater sites are:

Charleston, Chester, Columbia, Conway, Florence, Greenville, Low Country, Orangeburg and Sumter

148.1250 would be
R-07 $356
R-31 $47C

???$365 - not in CAP allocations

148.1500
R-18 $375

Easiest way to know if the NAC [for CAP and USFS] is to take s windows calculator in Scientific mode.

Go to Hex and enter 365 and then click on Decimal it will convert to 869 there is no 86.9 PL tone.

So we have $356 which converts to 854, and we do have an 85.4 PL tone.

Hope this helps.

Hmm...I wonder where you "found" that list? ;)

Larry, not knowing your location and/or monitoring coverage, could this be a GA repeater
that got reported back in 2011? Which, since there is No Location given for that, might actually be a SC repeater ?

Meant not knowing the topography and your set-up, not sure how far away you can hear. :D

Example - some folks here in Boston cant hear anything outside of the metro area, yet my location, I can get Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island as well as most of Eastern/Central Massachusetts :wink:

Guess that R-07 might still need some work

My location is posted below my join date.
