6 meter repeater coming to my area
- Thread starter Mudfoot
- Start date
The closest 6 meter machine to me is about 60 miles away.....it is all I can do to hear it,much less get into it
Our surrounding 2/440 repeaters are fairly active. I don't like talking on the local repeaters. 6 and 10 meter repeaters don't count, I consider them to be a different animal. Just a waste of a good 6 meter repeater linking it up like that.
It's a shame, as it's location is in a very choice spot with regional coverage. I'm not a club member, so I can't bitch.

There used to be a 6m repeater about 25 miles east of my location. Not sure if it is still on the air or not. They were having trouble getting someone to maintain and service it. The squelch kept opening up and the courtesy tone would get annoying after a while of repeated kerchunking and beeping. Not sure if they took it off the air or switch to CTCSS tone access. It was fun to work thru. Much different than the 2m repeater as it catered to a different crowd.
