147.040 MHz Repeater


Our 147.040 MHz repeater is a Motorola Quantar commercial grade repeater running in dual mode repeating both FM Wideband (25kHz) or P25 Phase 1 inputs.  Output power is set for about 85 watts.  This repeater system has a built-in repeater controller and full onboard diagnostics.  The antenna is a Comet GP-6 dual band antenna mounted approximately 120 feet above the ground.  This repeater has a positive offset and a PL tone of 103.5.  

442.925 MHz Repeater


The club's 442.925 MHz repeater is also a dual mode repeater.  This Icom ID-RP4010V repeater operates in D-STAR mode, as well as analog FM mode for mixed mode operation.  With an internal controller, the RF modules function as a single band D-STAR/FM standalone repeater.  The antenna is mounted approximately 110 feet above the ground.  The call sign for the D-STAR side of the repeater is WA7DR-C.  The analog FM side of the repeater uses Digital Coded Squelch (DCS)  set to 036.   

442.950 MHz Repeater


We have a stack of three Yaesu DR-1 System Fusion repeaters.  One DR-1 operates on 442.950 Mhz.  The other two DR-1 repeaters are backups to our 147.040 or 442.925 repeaters.  These first generation Yaesu C4FM & analog FM dual mode repeaters were developed for use with Yaesu's System Fusion, however, we are currently operating our 442.950 repeater in analog mode only.  The antenna is mounted approximately 100 feet above the ground.  This repeater has a positive offset and PL tone of 103.5.
