Guest Rob Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 I live in Central Oregon south and would be interested in joining in on the myGMRS network but I don't see any repeater's in this area. Do I have options via cell or computer link? I'm not a techie so ideas welcome. Thanks much all,Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you select Outdated Repeaters on the Map they'll pop. Whether they're in your area.. ?As to your linking question, I can't answer that with any expertise.

OldRadioGuy Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I lived in central Oregon (Redmond) so I'm guessing you are talking about LaPine or something.I don't see any GMRS repeaters that you would have a shot at from there. I'm not sure about the network you mean but there is a thing called GMRS network that works on the internet.Here is a video about it. Essentially the radio just links you to your PC and the internet does the rest.You are talking to people all over the US and maybe further.I think the hardware is not too expensive. They have a website here. http://gmrs.network/ I'm sure Bend has a ham radio club if you are interested in that.They usually have classes to get your license.... when covid is not in the way.

MacJack Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 Vince did a great job of sending you to the correct place... the hard part for me was under Radio Serive pick ZA which is GMRS license. If you want a few weeks the price will go to $35 for 10 years. Me and many others are in the $70 Club as I got my license in Nov 2020. Still $7 a year at current price and good deal at that.The best way to see if you have a repeater in your area is to just scan the Repeater Channels 15 to 22. JackHere's an easy guide.
