Why?

Did I buy this?
13660

There are NO repeaters here in the Tri-Cities.

Smooth move, Ex-lax!

All is not lost. See if you can hit the Flagstaff machine.....

You can't be seen at a hamfest without one.


And suspenders and a 40lb+ beer gut.

All you need now is a yellow glow vest, and a hamvention ball cap.

[W2NAP]

how much did you spend?

[WX7P]

$115. Came with a BC-35 drop in charger and an alkaline battery holder.

Should have checked the repeater directory for 1.2 ghz machines...

[W2NAP]

not a bad price, i think we only got 1 1.2G machine and its down in Indy.

You're not in California anymore, Dorothy. ;)

Heh, No shit.

No 220 boxes here either.

Janet. One simple question.
Do you want to put up a super antenna for 1.2?
It would be small enough. Main investment would be in coax.
It would be an interesting monitoring experiment in the propagation and conditions involved.
Me personally, I wouldn't do it unless I wanted to build a repeater for it and lived somewhere where I had a nice tower.

Well..... if I understand the band plans for U.S. Ops .......1.2 Ghz is a band where even Novice class licence holders may operate........ suppose you can look at it that way...... :chin:

[suddenseer]

There used to be a few 1.2 ghz machines in Dayton. They only got used during hamvention by visitors.

[WØTKX]

EchoLink it as a simplex repeater. ;)

Weirdly enough, there's a 1.2gig machine less than 20 miles from me, but it's D-STAR only. Boo hiss.

i didn't know you could get those so cheap. we have those kinda repeaters here afaik. (we also have 220mhz, but those seem to have been coopted by local businesses) ...
