Repeaters near Oxford OH

[acw18]

Hi all.  Anyone know of a repeater near Oxford OH?  I'm new to the area and I'm not familiar with the town names.  Also I don't see how to search by zip code.  Thanks for any help!

Hey, 

Unfortunately there are not many repeaters in that area. I am from Middletown and struggle to get any repeaters. I have been able to get to a Cincinnati 700 repeater that you can find in the repeater search. There has been talk about setting up a repeater in the West Middletown area.

Thanks.  West of Oxford is completely empty.  I have been able to connect to Fairfield 575.

I was able to get into the Cincinnati 700 from a 5 w HT and mobile antenna from just north of Middletown’s Hook airport. I could open the repeater with just the HT and rubber duck, but not sufficiently to hold a conversation. When I switched to the mobile antenna it was sufficient for conversation.

There is a 700 repeater in Dayton that I would speculate you could hit. It is owned by the same person as the Cincinnati 700. Both require a phone call and permission to use. I can communicate through both from my home SE of Cincinnati.
