Govt. Repeater ?

[cjrjr507]

I'm hearing a repeater on 485.2750 and have not heard any voice or data yet except for the morse code call sign from it which is WPEP785. The signal is weak and noisy and coming from a long ways off, on the fringe of my antenna. Do not know if it's in idaho or montana or possibly canada. Have you heard of any repeaters with that call sign ? I've tried the FCC database with no luck and it's not a ham repeater that I know of yet. Any help would be appreiated.

Hi Mick

Thanks for the info!
That frequency (485.2750)is an image frequency of 463.6750 on my radio. So that solved that mystery.
