thanks for the astute answer on checking the frequency. Both my radios were off frequency for channel repeater 15 which is what my local repeater transmits on. I have reprogrammed one and waiting to get the other one from my son to correct it. We should be good to go then. thanks so much for your assistance. I would have never thought to check that.

thanks, will try this weekend and let you know.

Thanks I will try, So far I have not heard any traffic on that repeater channel.

Thomson, GA and yes can just reach each other directly if we both go out of the house. Planning on trying a different antenna soon.

Thanks, radio proximity not issue. My son and I live 2 miles apart. Am I set up correctly by entering 151.4 on both receive and transmit ctcss codes? Could repeater be not working? I thought you could usually hear a secondary tone or squelch like sound if you are hitting repeater.

trying to setup Wouxun KG905 to connect to repeater. my local repeater is on Repeater channel 15. Tran/Rec ctcss are both 151.4 according to mygmrs website. permission to use was obtained via email. I get nothing when trying to communicate between my two radios. What am I doing wrong? Any help appreciated. bob

Trying to connect my Wouxun K905 to my local repeater. Mygmrs list the frequency which is repeater channel 15 with transmit and receive ctcss as 151.4 for both. Loaded those both on my two radios under ctcss menu. I put both receive and transmit in as 151.4. I can't seem to connect to repeater. Am I doing something wrong in setting up? any help appreciated. bob
