No, we were a few blocks from the closest evacuation line.

@mitzvah your original post was random and not a cohesive train of thought. A bit of fun was had at your expense. I recommend you try reading your own post before posting it. This isn’t the first time people didn’t know what you were trying to say. 
Moving on from that @SteveShannon I think has some good advice for the hearing issue which must be frustrating. 
Cheers 🍻 

Look, I had the same problem understanding your question that they did, so I simply ignored all the bullshit about radios and antennas and answered your hearing aid question (or at least what I interpreted as the question.) A wise person once told me "If you're not getting the answers you want, maybe look at how you asked the question." 
You included a bunch of confusing bullshit, whether as an attempt to be funny or perhaps you thought we would understand some analogy.  You removed your antenna and inserted the symbolic 1500 foot mountain between you and us and now you’re upset that we cannot hear you. Don't take it out on this forum because you posted a bizarre unintelligible plea for help. 

Because it doesn’t make sense. It looks like two separate thoughts, with the only commonality being the 1500’ mountain.

Maybe it makes sense to you, but you failed to explain what you are asking in a way that the rest of us can understand.

Frankly, it looked like a drunk person late night posting.

If you can explain what you’re saying maybe we can help.

“So to fellows we will call them #1 and #2 are in a flat desert and 10 miles apart. Both can TX and RX each other. #1 removed his antenna, he thinks he is TX but #2 can't hear anything.
#2 tries to TX #1, but #1 does not hear anything.
Now we add a 1500 ft tall mountain between them and #1 and #2 can't hear each other. RIGHT”

“So I wear hearing aids. The last pair cost me $5,000. plus I had to pay a $500 maintenance fee. They claimed they were making adjustments to my hearing aid, But there was a 1500 ft
tall mountain between us. So I stopped paying the Maintenance fee, and darn the hearing aids stopped working. What do you guys think.”

Depends on the repeater/repeater owner.. It could take anywhere from 5 minutes to never.

Oh, "some people" would VERY strongly and VERY vocally disagree!

That's just because you want me to respond to all the DMs that you keep sending me there, but I already told you, i'm not interested.

I've been known to get my Jeep dirty from time to time
2006 LJ Rubicon & 2012 NotARubicon Ch16 or Ch19, open.  Also scan/monitor all channels so I can rescue Toyota's in distress  Mottino Wash, Marble Canyon, John Bull, Doran/Odessa (Calico), anywhere in Old Dale

I think car monkey hairspray, but big toe likes rocky road. Hair gel makes fun times but trees are there. Your sister wash with hose but I still like pie.

Ignore button time.

AFAIK nobody else makes a "Part 95 GMRS Repeater"
Your best bet would be to look at LMR/UHF/H.A.M. repeaters.  None of them are simple to use, but the RPT50 IS simple to use.. as long as it works.

"all" the other GMRS repeater systems throughout the country are not shutting down.. Many are, but some will choose to wait until the FCC actually does/says something. This site is much more than just some linked GMRS repeaters, so, no, my guess is that there is zero reason for this site to shut down.
