I was looking through my repeater directory when I noticed that there were both open and closed autopatches available on many different repeaters. I don't actually have a cell phone right now (in college, don't feel like paying for something I rarely use) but autopatch sounds like a lifesaver if I lose a family member on a trip or break down on the side of the road.
So is 'open' autopatch really open to use for these things by anybody, not just paying club members? (I can't pay for every club in the country.) And what is the polite and proper way to use an autopatch? I can't find a universal guide for the etiquette and don't wish to abuse this gift.
Thanks!
