Hi guys n gals... is anyone in the Seattle or Eastside area running an APCO 25 repeater, either band? Is anyone else on the board besides myself running Motorola Astro Sabers and Spectras in this area? It would be great to have a few other people around to play APCO with....

Thanks
Jennifer

I don’t know of any open P25 machines in Seattle. I have heard rumor of one on 440, but it is very closed. I'll be on P25 at Puyallup. I'll have a VHF Quantar on my table; maybe I'll set it up on the test pair and run it during the swap meet. Look for me on 147.540 NAC 293, or 446.025 NAC 293. I’ll let you know if I have the repeater on the air during the show.

73,

Jim.

The XTS2500 I use already has 147.54 in it, i'll have to bring it along and listen up when I'm there.

I would be very interested to know when/if anyone gets a P25 repeater on the air in the Puget Sound/Victoria/Vancouver areas, I would be happy to test from here in Port Angeles and in my travels throughout the area.

I was thinking of getting something on the air for testing but I'm short on UHF equipment and the VHF repeater spectrum is full...
