Repeaters are normally listed by their output frequency, you receive channel. Repeater channels set in your radio have the correct output channel (5 MHz higher) coded into the channel selected. Repeater input frequencies are all at 467 MHz while all the other channels are 462 MHz.

I believe that is the answer he was looking for. I was thinking tone was what he was asking. There goes my newb-ness showing

The Input Frequencies On Any GMRS Repeater Station Will Be + (plus) 5 MHz From The Receive Frequency.

This Is Referred To As The + 5 MHz Offset.

Example - A 462.550 GMRS Repeater Frequency Will Need Your Radio To Transmit On 467.550 To A Repeater. Any applicable CTCSS Or DCS Tones For Access Will Also Be Required. The Repeater Then Re-transmits On The 462.550 Frequency To All CTCSS / DCS Receiving Radios.

You shouldn't have to specify an input frequency for the repeater, you should set your radio up with the output frequency: 462.xxxx, the offset: +5MHz, and the tx/rx tones. RX tone is not as important except that it will help you reject hearing kiddies playing walkie talkie.

 

What radio are you setting up, and what software are you using to do it?

The easy answer:

  • OUTPUT always starts with 462
  • INPUT always starts with 467
  • Everything after the . is always the same.

Example: Output of 462.575 would have an input of 467.575

High out, low in is easier to remember.
