Hay I think I'm gonna talk to that moderator guy to see if we can create a sticky of the hams calls so we have a list to refer too. I think that there may be a few more to have to add to said list shortly.

While running Lost Coast we were able to connect with one of the two Ukiah repeater, the Fort Bragg repeater and on 10m we were chatting with a group in N. Carolina. So for future info those repeaters work well up there as did 29.600 FM on the 10 meter band. Ham is great!

Always! How have you been doing with contacts and using repeaters? Tried any IRLP yet? Hope you are having fun with ham and hope to get you in my log soon. Also sherry'sway, not sure I got that right, said that she is going to test next month so our group is expanding.

I usually listen to a repeater in Palo Alto and every morning they have a talk net at 9AM. Also, I was able to save a lot of time at the Rubicon run when Dave (GCJEEPING) needed a tie rod. I was able to get on the Rubicon repeater that linked to El Dorado and Thao areas. A very nice gentleman helped us by making calls to parts store to check and order the parts for Dave.
Everyone saw how much of a help it could be in those kind of situations. Luckily that's the only thing we needed the HAM for ... but they all recognized how valuable it could be in worst situations.

Haven't done anything on the IRLP side yet. Only got a handheld so far. One of these days, I'll get the Kenwood's TM-D710GA.

I am glad you had it to use. It really can be a huge help at times. The repeater up there is there for just such occasions and of course worse.
To get a good one you do have to pay a bit, but you are making a long term purchase if you get a good one.
