  1. Thank you . Very informative
  2. I thought there was only one type of repeater. What is a simplex repeater? How will I know the one I'm contacting is simplex?
  3. When trying to connect with a local repeater, I can hear what sounds like a confirmation, but I also hear my voice after the confirmation sound. Am I connecting? Why do I have my voice feedback? Thanks for the help from a newbie.
  4. What type/make/length of antennas do you all use for gmrs mobile?
  5. Might be a stupid question, but what is your opinion on a 15Watt mobile? adequate? Thanks for your time
  6. Thanks everyone. I have a Wouxon 905 and have entered the channel frequency 162.400. Thanks again
  7. New to GMRS, so be kind. Does GMRS have Weather channel frequencies? If so, What are they? Thanks in advance
  8. Looking for GMRS contacts in the area to familiarize myself with repeater access, local talk channels, GMRS groups or clubs.
  9. Are there any GMRS users in the Jacksonville, N.C. area that would be kind enough to help this newbie out? I realize there isn't many repeaters in this area but could use some direction in at least getting a contact in this area. So far I've got nothing. Starting to wonder if it's useless to try GMRS in this area. Any help appreciated.
  10. Thanks for the information. I think I will go your way
  11. Jacksonville here! WRWL528. New to this, just got my license recently. Anyone close by? Only have 3 repeaters in the area.
  12. New to GMRS just received my license. WRWL528 . I have a Wouxun 905G
  13. Has anyone owned one of these short fiberglass antennas listing for about $27 on Amazon? Any thoughts on them? I've got restricted space. I'm new to this just got my license, any info appreciated. Thanks ahead of time
  14. Thanks guys. I appreciate the help.
