zap Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 36 miles on the .625 system we have in Lubbock. Run out of LOS on I-27 just south of (Go To) Hale Center. Quote
rdunajewski Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 My personal best, without tropo enhancement, is 43 miles between Green Brook, NJ and Point Pleasant Beach, NJ on an HT. Our machine is at almost 550ft ASL with minimal terrain to the East and South, so depending on location you can have a straight shot to the repeater for many miles. With tropo I've heard a repeater full quieting somewhere in Virginia from Edison, NJ but I did not try to respond back. Quote
MSensei Posted October 2, 2014 Report Posted October 2, 2014 I'd be interested on the PL for that 725 repeater in Philly. I've heard several repeaters in the area but no real chatter on any of them. :-( Maybe I'm listening at the wrong time (most likely)... Thanks,David Quote
MexicanJoe Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 I am in NE Texas between I20 and I30 Near Lake Fork. I hit a guy in South Oklahoma a few weeks ago on a hand held Baofeng BF-F8+.That is over 90 miles from me. There is a repeater between us but that is still a stretch. The Purley Tower is one of our best towers. mellowcream 1 Quote
