Thank you! I am currently using a basic GMRS radio that does not allow individual in/out codes for each channel, so I can transmit but not hear, or I can hear but not transmit. "Gonna need a bigger boat" 8^)

I am a newbie also! For all repeaters listing 'tone' frequencies, those have to be CTCSS as DCS is a digital code, not frequency based. For example, there is a repeater near me that lists a tone of 141.3 MHz, which is CTCSS 'tone' 22. I am not sure if the 'tone' is required to use the repeater as my understanding is that 'tones' only filter who you can hear on any given channel, while using no 'tone' allows you to hear all activity on any given channel.

So, in summary, to use a repeater that operates on frequency 'A' and tone code 'B', not using the tone code 'B' does not prevent one from transmitting/receiving via the repeater, so long as it is in range? The repeater in question for myself has no tone out, but it does have a tone in. Does this mean it only recevies/relays transmissions using the specified 'tone' on the specified frequency?
