Hello all! I just wanted to come on here and let everyone know about a new GMRS net that has just kicked off locally here in the Hickory, NC area (Charlotte, NC metro). It is called the Barretts 600 Net because the repeater is on the Barretts Mountain tower site. Frequency is 462.600, standard +5 offset, and the tone is 146.2 Hz. It's a wide area repeater and reaches at last count about 40 miles circumference to Hickory, NC. The net is every Saturday night @ 7:00pm eastern time. Please feel free to contact me with any questions/comments/concerns. Thank you and hope to talk soon! David (WRAX515 or AK4FD)

It will be on the Barrett’s 600 machine in Taylorsville, NC (Hickory area), it’s a wide area repeater located at 462.600 and a 146.2 tone. It will be known as the “Barretts 600 Net”. I will be Net Control and Net Manager, WRAX515. Spread the word and let’s jump it off with a bang! Share and notify!

I’m new to the forum and am curious to know if there are any other users in the greater Charlotte, NC metro area. I live about 35 miles southeast of downtown Charlotte, near the NC/SC line and US–601. I’ve had my GMRS license for a bit, but have yet to actually talk to anyone. I have a Wouxun UV-3D handheld and 2 Motorola CDM–1550 UHF mobiles that came without power cables or microphones (what did I really expect for that price on eBay, LOL). I’m just wondering if there is any local activity. I’ve been a licensed ham for 21 years and I know there is quite a bit of local VHF usage there. Thanks in advance and have a great day! —Matt R.
