WRWR489 Posted June 27, 2023 Report Posted June 27, 2023 We have a very active upstate GMRS area here in Upstate SC. Have any of the local repeaters set up any plans for the Trump rally in Pickens Saturday? Maybe traffic updates Ect.? Quote

You talk about activity of GMRS in upstate SC, but what's that have to do with a Trump Rally? Quote

I understand his question as sort of open ended, wondering if someone has plans to make announcements on the repeater about changing local conditions related to the rally, such as traffic reports. I see nothing offensive about the question. Sab02r, marcspaz, Lscott and 2 others 5 Quote
WRWR489 Posted June 29, 2023 Author Report Posted June 29, 2023 Correct Shannon, was just asking if any of the upstate repeaters were going to be updating traffic conditions, crowds, parking Ect. SteveShannon 1 Quote
marcspaz Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 I'm posting to subscribe to the thread and to share info about the DC metro area. I'm curious to read updates after the rally in SC. It's kind of strange here. When big events happen in Richmond, DC or Virginia/Maryland DC Metro area, the repeaters usually go quiet. It would be interesting to see how the community responds in other areas. WRWR489 and SteveShannon 1 1 Quote
WRWR489 Posted June 30, 2023 Author Report Posted June 30, 2023 It is going to be interesting, Pickens proper only has about 20k In population, latest head count for the rally is 40k. Thank god I know the back ways in, but will still be a mess worth seeing. Quote
