Get on your local repeater and call out every 30 minutes or so asking if anybody is monitoring and wants to have a chat. Usually it works. I'll have a chat with you.

Sometimes I have to open Firefox with an adblocker to see repeaters on my phone. I agree that it's design is sometimes website breaking.

GMRS Live feeds! I could provide a feed. I would love to see something like this because GMRS is not allowed on broadcastify and honestly the only feeds are on YouTube.

Look in to PCI VFIO for direct PCI passthrough of the soundcard to the guest machine, this should work.

What kind of coax do you have? This could be a very good reason for this exact issue

I have just thought of something: Most of our mobile's output 5W from the radio itself. Usually they come with a high gain antenna, thus making the ERP of HT's greater than 5W, possibly closer to 10 watts. even the radios are FCC approved for GMRS. E.g the Wouxun 935G, comes with a 2.5dB gain antenna according to buytwowayradios. However, the KG-805F(RS) is 2W ERP, with 1 watt out of the radio to a 3dB gain antenna. Also FCC approved. We all know the limit for mobiles and bases is 50W, but is that ERP or actual Transmitter power in to the antenna? if my antenna has gain, is this technically not allowed since the ERP will exceed 50W? It seems that HT's are allowed more than 5W ERP, but what about mobiles and bases? If you have a 50W radio, you probably run a 2-6dB gain antenna. So what is the deal? This is pretty confusing to me. Thoughts?
