WSFA358 Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 Novice here. Not clear on: - how to use a GMRS repeater I have two UV-5Rs and a Yeasu FT1901A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRXB215 Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 @WSFA358 for liking a comment, just hover over the circle with a heart in it and it will display the different "reactions" to choose from. For repeaters, do a search, there is already a lot of info. After that, if you still have trouble, then ask a specific question and you will get plenty of help.

Somebody is likely to have the answers you're looking for. Remember there are no dumb questions here, just a lack of knowledge that learning will soon correct.

WRKS933 Posted October 17 Report Share Posted October 17 Yep I'm a newbie. Very new. I do have fun with SDR ( Listening to seminole county P25 system, looking at near by TPMS info, Someones weather station somewhere, and a door sensor somewhere open/close, etc etc) I really like the idea of GMRS. I picked up two cheapy cheapy Baofeng GM-15 pros. they get about 2- 2.8 miles around the here. I have attempted to setup repeater info on three repeaters, but I think I'm to far away for any of them to pick me up. But hey! Howdy to everyone from Seminole COunty Florida!

Jim Hey welcome to gmrs. Try a 771 antenna for the hand helds. They seam to double the milage at least for me. But it really depends on line of sight.
