When repeaters are linked like that do they also incorporate voting?

As far as I know these don't, they're on different frequency pairs. It's strange because when somebody is on each repeater you can hear two talking at the same time. You don't get the weird noise that's typical when two FM stations key up over each other.

Like with the WA-WAs and Worbles and all that heterodyning stuff.

Is this thread dead? Is the Troy repeater dead?  It says "disabled by owner"

This thread may be dead, but Troy repeater is pretty much alive. I just got new mobile antenna today and decided to test repeater from my driveway (15 miles away) and I got response from repeater. 

And it is open system now.

Great!  I live in Sterling Hgts, should be able to reach it with my hand helds. In the process of getting a mobile for my truck

Also...I thought I read somewhere that there was a repeater in Mt. Clemens. Don't remember where I saw that and can't find it now.

Actually I don’t see a whole lot in Michigan period.  Could be good could be bad depending on how you look at it.

Try GR550 if you are on the west side of the state. Rick runs it and was very quick to allow me access.  I was only passing through so didn't have much time to monitor, but it has good range.

GR725 is promising, but down at the moment.
