  1. I absolutely love learning everyday. It’s also a pleasure hearing and trying some of others experiences. I have a lot to look forward. It does come at a cost between work and “wife” haha. I do appreciate all the help. This is a truly fun hobby. And have a great repeater to reach far areas just a short drive to connect. I’ve been able to hit 60+ miles with it possibly even more with some cities
  2. I really appreciate all of the advice. I think I might try setting up a retractable antenna. I live on the back side of the complex so I’m thinking I won’t bring too much attention. I can barely pickup the repeater with the handheld but it is better than my stock antenna. Any recommendations on a home base radio setup? Or good place for some research? Thanks everyone for their feedback!!!
  3. I’m starting to realize that as I’ve been hiking with it. Will a shorter antenna work the same?
  4. Hello, as I am new to obtaining gmrs license, I have a question about home gmrs radio. Currently I only have a Btech v1 handheld. I would like to setup something for my house. Here’s the main question. I live in an apartment and can’t “attach” an antenna to the roof. I do live on second story with balcony. Any recommendations please?? And a good cheaper starter radio???
  5. I purchased the N771 antenna and now I can reach the repeater 30+ miles from inside my house. When before I couldn’t even reach it outside 5 miles from my house. I’ve had some good luck with this one. As I am new to this any tips on looking at getting sw meter? How to use?
  6. Thank you would that work on a Btech?
  7. Hello, WRKK502 here. Just obtained my license. I am curious as to what someone would recommend for my Btech V1 handheld. Looking for a better antenna. Also maybe some suggestions on how to connect with repeaters with my handheld as I am new to it. Thanks for reading.
