[Linked GMRS Repeaters in CA?]

Was hoping there was something more along the lines of CARLA and SCARLA (amateur radio) for GMRS. I want to communicate from the bay area to other locales in northern California such as Sacramento and Redding.

But looks like I'll have to get more folks to HAM if I want that.

That's exactly what I did, got my Technician License. Now I can take advantage of both worlds.  There are some great GMRS repeaters that cover a lot of areas, but no networks that span the state (that I know of). Just takes money!

[Desktop mic for KG1000G?]

Like many of us, we are using our mobile radios as base stations. My question, is there a desktop mic (base mic) for the Wouxun KG1000G? My initial search says no, but I may be wrong, so I'm asking all you pros.

New guy here.

Welp, I got a little excited when I read a little on the myGMRS National Net System, that is until I looked at the map. Looks like California is pretty much out of luck. I'm going to assume its that pesky little Sierra Nevada Mountain range that's causing an issue or just not enough participating repeaters?

[Hitting an unlisted Repeater]

Anyone know of those unlisted repeaters in the east bay area of northern California? (Tri-Valley area)

I sure wish a GMRS repeater would show up on top of Mt. Diablo along side those HAMs.
