WRKP827 Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 There are not a lot of repeaters near Clarksville TN on either MyGMRS, or Repeaterbook. Anyone in the area that knows of local ones that are not listed? My daughter is in that area and getting into GMRS. I'm trying to help her out by doing the leg work and to program her radio. Thank you in advance for any helpful comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRXB215 Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 Click on the gear icon in the upper left of the map and enable "Show Stale Repeaters." Stale repeaters are just repeaters that haven't had an update in more than 1 year. Also, checkout some local clubs, including ham clubs. Often times GMRS repeaters are owned by hams.

gortex2 Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 Was just in Nashville last week and in Clarksville a couple nights and did not hear any chatter on any repeater frequency. Nashville 575 did pop in once but couldn't get back to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorH Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 According to Repeaterbook there are 2 GMRS Repeaters in Clarksville channel 18(462.625) and channel 20(462.700 both have coordinated repeaters through SERA. I have at times heard a few people chatting away on GMRS. I know the Amateur Radio side has several different 2m and 70cm repeaters along with DSTAR and fusion digital coming on line in the near future...I live in Montgomery County and feel Free to ask any more questions I'm willing to help WRKP827 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gortex2 Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Are they actually on ? I tried both last week and could not access either. RB says they are offline also ? Lastly SERA has nothing to do with GMRS repeaters. They cannot coordinate GMRS. I used the 640 machine a bit when there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a message that both repeaters are off line until it can be repaired. Thank you for your input, I greatly appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
