I can see the traffic issue in areas like New York, New Jersey etc. Some people have complained about it, It’s very easy to see why

yes, earlier this afternoon the site was quirky.. I had trouble pulling some DB data down. Had about a 20 min window when it seemed to work well.

Like I said.. I can't help you Bud.. Maye you can tell your friends to update their stuff. If i could read 'minds' we would all be 'Rich'

Can't help you with that 'Bud'

listing what is reported on MYGMRS.. As of of this morning

Also, i had to emulate Windows 10 when i installed on my Windows 11 machine. If i remember, you right click on the executable and choose Windows 10 emulation. but i honesty can't remember. something to google.. also might help to run your zip extraction in Admin Mode,, another right flight, run as administrator

its a very easy step by step process. Pretty hard not to get it the first time. You will need to install and use PUTTY which is free, The instructions allso show you how to download and install PUTTY.

I thought for sure you would say 'Alexandria'

No necessalry the 'rage'. Just something that got literally out of hand. Of course, i can see why someone like Cogent wants to keep the sharks flying. Big Money!

I got really curious how many GMRS repeaters are owned or licensed by a single license on the reported repeaters here on MyGMRS. So i put together a quick little (actually pretty large) report that shows just that. The parameters are 3 repeaters and above and identified by single call sign as reported. I really didn't expect to see some of the numbers some folks have in the number of repeaters. Holly Cow!. Can you imagine the investment some of these folks have made. So the next question,, Why?? does a single user need so many repeaters for a service meant for family and friends. Especially, after considering how the FCC has clarified its usage. I can see now why some folks in certain areas complain of no bandwidth. Certainly some areas in the mid west and east just have not room.. Just Trivia stuff and very interesting.

i use a home brew Cooper J-Pole for my portable repeater i use for my 5th wheel travel trailer. I mount the antenna on a Harbor Freight telescoping flag pole which is mounted on my rear RV Ladder. (about 25-30' height) The J-Pole (1/2"material) is light enough that it doesn't whip around much on the flagpole. The J-Pole does not require a ground plane, or even a ground which makes it handy for fiberglass RV applications. And it performs reasonably well. I've talked about 90 miles base-to-base with this setup at Lake Crawley where i have wide open areas. However the J-Pole does not perform well around trees or other obstructions.

True, but you might notice and appreciate better functionality, programing, ease of use, screen viewing, better receive sensitivity and last but not least, a prettier wrist strap

Actually not a bad price... But damn it, i need another 3D Printer.

all the way up to 3 Ghz

the lowest loss i have seen in even some of the really really high end expensive UHF Duplexers is 1.2dB.. Put up your fishing pole, going be a hard bite tp find .6dB.

Steve Shannon put it in perspective.. The ISS is a mere 250 miles above earth, not thousands that many may think.. Still, 250 miles is quite a distance for a 5W HT to reach.. I'm sure there are other factors transmitting into space but i can tell you with certainty, i have never been able to talk 250 miles with a UHF HT on earth. The best i have done is roughly 80 miles hitting the El Paso repeater from Palmdale. A line of site shot with that repeater sitting on a 4500' mountain top. Has anyone really talked 250 miles on earth on UHF with a 4-5 watt HT? If so you are the King.

Ask Mr. Ed

I like Hytera Radios. Mobil, HT and their Repeaters.

Na,, $400 bucks..

Learn how to edit and do it right

As i said,, If you want to link repeaters and keep it legal, go to in HAM where it can be done right.. DO YOU HERE ME NOW!

Yup,, I think most will find the 'big sales' will spark impulse buying like never before.

I like the laser option as well. RED DOT for me.. Thank-You
