Nope. That is the main Skywarn repeater for Stark County.
147.180 is used as a backup in case 147.120 is down.

Yup, they uses 180 today during the storms. The 120 had a really bad interference they said was possibly caused by weather.
Anybody in the Wayne Co area find out if that was a tornado or just high winds today?

The Action News Chopper from Channels 19/43 here in Cleveland are saying it was a tornado. They are currently in the Wooster area. I don't know if they will have anything on the 10pm newscast or not.

I'll miss the news, have to have the wife watch it. I guess nobody can get anything out of the Sheriff. I'm hearing that NOAA said it was a "micro-burst". I was looking at NOAA's radar at the time because N. Canton FD is the same freq as Wayne's and I just looked at it before the tones dropped, it came out of nowhere. There were no warnings out at the time although the only ones I was aware of was Summit and Cuyahoga.

News reports indicate it was straight-line winds

Anybody have a list or link that has an updated repeater list for the state?
If you mean Skywarn repeaters, I'm not sure there is such a thing, though it would be nice...xusmarine1979 said:
For Ham repeaters in general, you can go to http://www.oarc.com/ and search their database. They also produce nice printed repeater directories for Ohio that they might mail you for the price of postage (they're free at hamfests). Ham repeaters are hard to keep track of, because they can go on and off the air for many reasons.
