WRAX515 Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 Hello all! I just wanted to come on here and let everyone know about a new GMRS net that has just kicked off locally here in the Hickory, NC area (Charlotte, NC metro). It is called the Barretts 600 Net because the repeater is on the Barretts Mountain tower site. Frequency is 462.600, standard +5 offset, and the tone is 146.2 Hz. It's a wide area repeater and reaches at last count about 40 miles circumference to Hickory, NC. The net is every Saturday night @ 7:00pm eastern time. Please feel free to contact me with any questions/comments/concerns. Thank you and hope to talk soon! David (WRAX515 or AK4FD) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamdaj Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Man, sure wish that I could join in on the Sunday Night net, but I'm here in Bucks County Pennsylvania. If You all have a Zello Channel, I would be willing to to sign on some Sundays. Adam WQAI363 / K3JCP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am using only a HT (3db rooftop antenna) so I don't have a prayer. Excellent machine and it's really getting out. A fellow Extra here so well done OM and 73. I prefer being unknown so no call. Sry OM. I occasionally appear on the mt Mitchell machine. Best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
