WRUC846 Posted December 11, 2025 Posted December 11, 2025 welcome @WSKI606 i think you may have answered me earlier today. WSDV406 1
WRFK988 Posted December 25, 2025 Posted December 25, 2025 Checking in from Shelbyville. I am close to the Shelbyville repeater but travel frequently across the region: Franklin, Columbia, Murfreesboro. WSDV406 1
kstaff7 Posted December 26, 2025 Posted December 26, 2025 I'm Keith and I'm checking in from Lebanon. I monitor the Lebanon repeater most evenings. I'm only using a Btech handheld with the original rubber duck antenna, but I have been able to contact others in Murfreesboro. I plan to set up a base station in the future to increase my range. I'd really like to have good comms out to 30mi from Lebanon if possible. I'm WRKP867, feel free to reach out. SteveGibbs and WSDV406 2
WSDV406 Posted December 26, 2025 Posted December 26, 2025 Welcome to the club, @WRFK988 and @kstaff7 (WRKP867)! Glad to have yall. I'm Jeffrey. I usually monitor Brentwood 600, Gallatin 650, and sometimes I scan Nashville 575 & 625 as well as Lebanon 675. We host a weekly check-in net on Brentwood 600 at 8pm every Wednesday. Love to have yall monitor and/or key up and check-in! Welcome again, and Merry Christmas.
kstaff7 Posted December 30, 2025 Posted December 30, 2025 Thanks! I'll be sure to do some check-ins. I won't be available this Weds. I'll be at work. No New Year's celebration for me! WSDV406 1
WSKW921 Posted December 30, 2025 Posted December 30, 2025 Hi guys. WSKW921 here. I'm Ryan up in Goodlettsville but I travel down in Brentwood a few times a week for work. Usually monitoring Lebanon 625 and Gallatin 700. Currently on a 5W hand held but looking to build a home base station soon WSDV406 1
WSDV406 Posted December 31, 2025 Posted December 31, 2025 Hey there @WSKW921! Welcome to the club! If you're traveling around those roads, I'd recommend you add Gallatin 650 and Brentwood 600 to your monitor list. Those are the two largest footprint repeaters in the area. In fact, our weekly check-in net happens every Wednesday evening at 8pm on Brentwood 600. We'd love for you to join us!
WSKY556 Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Hello, WSKY556 (Brandon) here and glad to join. I'm in Murfreesboro and pretty new and learning. Just have a few hand helds atm but looking forward to getting a base station setup. WSDV406 1
WSDV406 Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Welcome to the club @WSKY556! Welcome to the club! I'm Jeffrey. I usually monitor Brentwood 600, Gallatin 650, and sometimes I scan Nashville 575 & 625 as well as Lebanon 675. We host a weekly check-in net on Brentwood 600 at 8pm every Wednesday. Love to have ya monitor and/or key up if you're able to hit the repeater (and depending on your HT and your location, you very likely may be able to)!
jamesehearn Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Hi folks! I'm James at WSKV697 and my kid, Everett, and I checked into the repeater net last night and really appreciated how friendly it was! We just got our license in December and he's been itching to find anyone to chat with besides me since then. We are in South Nashville, between Brentwood and Antioch, so the Brentood 600 works great for us. Thanks again! SteveShannon, WSDV406 and SteveGibbs 3
WSDV406 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Welcome @jamesehearn (WSKV697) and you kiddo Everett. We loved having you in the net last week and welcome to the club and to the GMRS family! jamesehearn 1
WSLK262 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Howdy! My name is Jared, and I'm a ham getting into GMRS. Call here is WSLK262! Just got a TD-H3 Pro, and just started messing around with it. I'm right in nashville, so usually I can hear repeaters, but still trying to hit them! looking to add a mobile setup in the truck for when I'm out and about! WSDV406 1
WSDV406 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Welcome to the GMRS family and to the SCTNGMRS club @WSLK262! Just remember......you chose this.
WSLK262 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Ha! I did! I'm a glutton for punishment. I could hear a net tonight, tried to hit the repeater, but failed from inside my apartment sadly, unless I had the tones wrong? What nets are weeknights at 8PM? WSDV406 1
WSDV406 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 @WSLK262 -- you likely heard the status report net on the Gallatin repeater at 462.650. It's CTCSS tones are 141.3 with standard +5 offset. They've been doing daily nets at 8pm just this week to take status reports from people in the aftermath of the ice storm. The regularly scheduled weekly nets, however, are.... This club's net on Wednesday evenings at 8pm on Brentwood 462.600 (tones are 123.0, standard +5 offset) and Sumner Ready net on Saturday evenings at 8pm at the aforementioned Gallatin repeater.

WSLK262 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 awesome! Thanks for the info! Still figuring out how to program my radio, so I think I had the offset wrong. WSDV406 1
