Overview

About This Club

For GMRS users in the South Central Tennessee area. Nashville south to Alabama Border.
  1. What's new in this club
  2. If you're on a HT you wont hit any repeaters in or around Clarksville and defiantly not in Nashville.
  3. I wish I could provide some help, but that question is out of my wheelhouse. I sure hope some folks that have much more technical knowledge than I can help you figure out your rx and/or tx issue at the affected location. I hope to learn something in the process, as well.
  4. hey everyone i am visiting family currently and they live about half an hour or so outside of clarksville and no matter what i tune my radio too i get constant static, i have no idea why, it was working back home but here its like something is blocking all signal or something what could cause this? EDIT its something in their house causing, no idea what could do that though
  5. I seemed to have misplaced your email Steve, but here is a Net Outline for next week. I'll provide them for a bit until we have more people and think most are comfortable with it. 20250611_GMRS Net Outline.docx
  6. I am planning to make this a regular thing when I am available, which should be most weeks for the foreseeable future. Hopefully more of you can make it to future nets. I'll also announce that if anyone else would like to take over net control, I'm happy to step aside and give someone else the experience. Steve, could you make another post for the net next week?
  7. UPDATE: Start time was accidently omitted in the above announcement: Net will take place Wednesday June 11th starting at 8:00 PM
  8. The club will start holding a Wednesday Night Net on the Grasslands repeater. Adam WSHZ 630 has volunteered be the net controller (host) for the first one on June 11th. He has provided the below net procedure for this net.
  9. Hey, I get SMG1 from over here in Bellevue. I'm usually scanning during the day on Wednesdays and Fridays during the work day (~8:30-5:00) including today. Give me a shout. WSHZ630 - Adam. You might want to key up for 10 seconds or so before trying to be sure I pick you up on scan, that's about how long my cycle is.
  10. Welcome Tim! Jeffrey Davis, WSDV406 here, in Hermitage. The Gallatin Repeater at 650 is by far the most active that I hear, in the area I'm able to monitor at least. Other than that, Brentwood 600 and Brentwood Grasslands (also at 650) are the next most active for me. I can't currently reach a lot of yall's great repeaters further south with my current setup. Looking forward to reaching you soon though. Welcome to the group brotha. Looking forward to making contact with ya
  11. Hello, Tim Roper WRMN250 in Fairview. I run a Retevis RT95 on a Comet GP-3. I’ve been checking into nets on the Gallatin repeater, but am looking forward to this club and learning which repeaters y’all use.
  12. Went to get one the other day, Can't order now till June.
  13. Would anyone here be interested in setting up a trivia game bi-weekly or monthly? A different person would volunteer to create the questions and keep give answers at the end of each round. Maybe 2 or three rounds of 10 questions. Scoring would be on the honor system. No prizes, just for fun and bragging rights.
  14. Welcome Seth! I'll start monitoring Murfreesboro a little more. I can RX it, but don't think i come through on TX.....not until I get my antenna up on the outside of the house. Same with Lebanon for me. I can communicate clearly through Brentwood and Grasslands though.
  15. Good evening everyone! My name is Seth and Im located in Murfreesboro. Currently I have a set of UV-5R handhelds and a pair of Radioditty DB20-G GMRS mobile radios for my family vehicles. Usually only on GMRS channel 20 using CTCSS 141.3 to hear everything go on around me. I will monitor RUTHERFORD 600 at CTCSS 114.8 and SMG1 at CTCSS 229.1 when Im trying to really reach out and contact others. I would love to start making contacts and learn more about the GMRS community and how to operate effectively. Please feel free to reach out at any time as I constantly monitor this account. Very Respectfully, WSCE776 (Seth)
  16. Has anyone heard about the brand new BTech GMRS-50Pro? Good god!
  17. Yes indeed. They play Battleship by Radio on the Gallatin repeater at 462.650 (141.3Hz in/out) on Wednesdays at 730pm. The Gallatin repeater bleeds over with the Brentwood "Grasslands" repeater (same frequency, different tone).
  18. Does anyone here know about 'Battleship by Radio"? I heard some people playing the other night and it sounds fun! I'd like to get more information.
  19. Welcome aboard, I monitor Thompson Station, Brentwood, both Franklin and Grasslands repeaters. We have not set up a formal net, but with 44 members we should be able to set up some days and times for shout outs.
  20. Checking in from Spring Hill. I'm in the middle of the Thompson Station, Franklin and Rutherford repeater areas. Would really like to know if/when people are on the net and what channel so I can start making contacts.
  21. that was not me, not sure my h3 could reach gallatin from spring hill but i will see about tuning in and see if maybe i will pick something up or if need be get some thing with a bit more powerr
  22. Welcome, and glad you're putting that license to use! I recommend (and use) the tid radio h3 and h8. You'll definitely want a few extra batteries if you go that HT route.
  23. Interesting. I actually heard somebody on the Gallatin repeater this afternoon expressing that they were having the same issue. Was that you? I can't recall the call sign of the person that was expressing that issue. I'll say this, I have a couple of h3's and a couple of h8's (and ive programmed several of both for other people), can I have had 1 lemon. It would receive wouldn't transmit, the programming wouldn't stick, and a few other weird issues. So my first bit of advice to you would be order a new one and see if everything works as it should. If it does, then you simply just had a lemon. My second bit of advice would be to unlock it. That's the way I use all of my h3 and H8 radios. See if things work right once the restrictions of GMRS mode are gone.
  24. it is gmrs and yes i am sure, if i use the default channels it seems to work but if i use one i program myself it doesnt seem to work for some reason
  25. What mode is your TD-H3 in (GMRS, HAM, Unlocked)? Do you have your repeater channel offsets setup properly?
  26.
