Repeater R#s

ShotBaker · September 17, 2015, 01:33:21 AM

My in laws live in Michigan and my folks live in Texas. We visit often and I always take my commo gear. I have not had any luck tracking down repeater R#s for either state so I'm hoping y'all can help. I am the squadron Comm Officer as well.

I'd love to listen for nets and check in when able.

If you are part of TXWG, MIWG, WVWG, OHWG and have knowledge of your Wing's repeaters and nets please send me a private message.

Thanks team!

Each of the Wings has a website, I would say track down contact info for the Wing Director of Comm for each Wing and ask for the info.

I'll give that a shot again, but folks have never gotten back to me.

Looks like it's time for you to volunteer to become the comm officer.

Whereabouts in MI? In addition to the R number, each of our repeaters is also labeled in our code plug based on it's geographic location. If you have a specific area, I can track it down and let you know.

If you go on eServices and scroll to the bottom, click on Communications, you should see a link called Repeater Directory. If you click the link, you can find all the repeater pair numbers & locations by wing.

There's also a spreadsheet on the Communications Page that lists days/times of nets.

JeffDG, I recalled that this morning. I feel like a dummy. Thanks for the reminder!

Slim, in-laws are in the Grand Blanc/Flint area.

That would be R-8. Not a lot of activity on there, and they seem to favor using P25 most of the time. You may also be able to access the metro Detroit area repeater, R-42. It's located in Auburn Hills, just north of Pontiac and pretty much across the street from the Palace of Auburn Hills. It's a little more active, and runs a net every Tuesday evening at 1830L. Not sure of/when they run a net on the Flint repeater.
