I would love to see linked repeaters myself if nothing more thana the southeastern region of the US for my area and go from there as a experiment to see how it would work on all of Gary's repeaters on the www.northgeorgiagmrs.com site I believe he is up to @18 or so repeaters stretched across Georgia and I am sure it would discourage the illegal repeaters that are in the Atlanta area if all were linked,heck he could link into mine in Alabama.The legalities are a gray area with the FCC and they will say there is no specific rule against it but you could be told to remove them at a moments notice.I have not heard much from Garry WQFU865 lately may need to give him a call.I think Rich knows who I am talking about.
