NotaRubicon has made it official by proclamation.

My situation is unique but my experience may help you. I created a Facebook Group specific to the area, disaster preparedness, and for GMRS. I then went fishing around for other FB groups that are specific to my area, did some chatting with the admins, got their blessings and then invited their membership to join my group. Within 2 days I got 15 members and they're still dribbling in. With a couple of exceptions none of these folks are familiar with GMRS so I'm feeding them some YouTube videos and links to web sites. I hoping eventually we will have some users in the area and a little more activity on the air waves. If you want to make it happen you got to work it from different angles.

 

Whereabouts down east are you located, generally speaking? I'm in Nash county, just recently got my license and a DB20-G. Haven't heard any local traffic and am still trying to figure out how to connect to the repeater in Tarboro, WQYS795. I spend a lot of time in Edgecombe county with church and other activities, any help or contacts is appreciated!
