Lee Police Department is now repeaterized. I captured the input frequency and PL as well.
The database is now updated.

The output frequency and PL are the same as the old Simplex. (154.755 107.2)

Curious if you know where the tower is?

The FCC license shows (call sign WQDM638):

Site 1: 32 Main St (town hall) 154.755 Rptr with 65-watt transmitter/18.5-watts ERP.
Site 3: Rt 102 South (bldg w/ antenna on top) 154.755 Rptr with 65-watt transmitter/18.5-watts ERP.

Sites 1 & 3 each show they have a repeater, so I guess they have 2 repeaters. On 8/10/10 is when they modified their license going from "FB" fixed base to "FB2" repeater and added Site 3.

Hope this info helps out. Either way, 18.5-watts ERP isn't that powerful a repeater. So I'm sure it works well in town, but probably won't talk several towns away.

It covers quite well, into Great Barrington well into Pittsfield.

The Rt 102 site is the South Lee fire station, and is most likely a backup/secondary.

The input uses a different PL but I won't list it here. A little research can find that out.
