Hello all, new member and GMRS licensee. Happy to join this group. @mellowcream, I live in Frederick, MD and do visit Easton regularly, and probably for the upcoming waterfowl festival. I'm new at this but trying to set up a way to communicate with my dispersed family members in case of emergency. My neighbor (Ham) has a GMRS repeater but, as with the other two mentioned above, seems it's not powered up. I will contact him this afternoon and verify. It's Frederick 610 https://www.mygmrs.com/view?id=1359
