Mikeydell25 Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Was trying to access the BROADNET group from my bookmarks but the computer just keeps searching. Are they still on the air and are they still a dues free group? Thanks. Mike WROH733 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRXB215 Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 @Mikeydell25 Are you talking about this one? Or this one? Oh, you are probably talking about this one. It doesn't work for me either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gortex2 Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 I assume he means https://broadnetgmrs.net/ which appears offline at this point. Google shows posts last week so maybe a domain issue (forgot to pay bill) or something else. WRXB215 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeydell25 Posted October 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 I found them! They now charge $25 to become a club member to access the repeater. I guess all the other members were dropped? Did anyone get an email with the pertinent info regarding the site changing the club format?

ULTRA2 Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 The thing that I don't like about clubs is that they (Group Leader) make it a point to change things without notifying their members of procedural changes and when they try to log in to the page only to find out they have to request for membership all over again that's why membership in groups are dropping IMO.

nokones Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 I'm glad that I am in a well run/organized GMRS Repeater Club. The Club I belong to has training classes and exercises throughout the year and are involved in Community events. The Club is looking into having social functions for the members and their families that has nothing to do with radio. They also hold a couple Formal Nets every week, and two informal Nets for relaying Traffic and Weather Information on the weekdays. Also, the Club will be expanding their services with more involvement with community. I believe the membership is well over 400 and the Club has several Ambassadors to welcome the new members into the Club and help them with any programming and/or technical needs. wayoverthere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to get the tones from the club or repeater owner. gortex2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want the ads to go away when you’re looking at the forums you have to pay to become a premium member of mygmrs.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRXB215 Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 Do a search on the forums for Broadnet. Maybe even a Google search. Seems like I saw some complaints like your a few months ago. If I recall, they suddenly changed a bunch of stuff and some users did not know anything about it. My memory isn't as sharp as it used to be.
