WA5VTV/R is a GE Master II repeater
|
A few CTDXCC members meet on a local two meter FM voice
repeater to chat about DX and contesting while they drive. Find us on
WA5VTV/R 147.360 MHz (+600 kHz transmit offset) with a 131.8 Hz access
tone. The repeater is located on a broadcast transmitter tower on a hill
west of Lake Austin. The best times to find CTDXCC members on the repeater
are during typical drive times, especially before and after the club
meetings, and after major contests, as guest operators or multi-operator
team members are driving home.
Michael Pendley WA5VTV is not a member of the CTDXCC. The WA5VTV/R repeater
is one of two repeaters designated for use by the
Travis County Amateur Radio Emergency
Service (TCARES) The other TCARES repeater is on 146.940 MHz, -600 kHz
transmit offset, no access tone. A weekly Travis County ARES net is held
on the 147.360 MHz repeater Sunday nights at 7:30 PM. The repeater is
used by the local SkyWarn
operators, and it is also occasionally used for public service events on
weekends. Please respect these primary uses of the repeater.
