Repeater FAQs

Question: I only use analog FM and have no interest in using digital modes; am I being left out?
Answer: No, our 147.345 repeater is analog (CTCSS tone 123.0 Hz)

and our 443.450 repeater is analog as well (CSQ No Tone)

Our 145.450 repeater is primarily Wires-X, but is running AMS mode for analog radios as well
Question: I transmit but no one hears me
Answer: Your station must be within range with enough power and generally line-of-site with an adequate antenna
It is very possible your station can hear the repeater, but your station is unable to reach the repeater
If using the 145.450 repeater, you should have your C4FM radio set to DN and AMS mode (DN with a bar across it )
You can also set your radio to FM with a bar across it which is also AMS mode
If still having issues, please ensure you have a CTCSS (PL) tone of 123.0 set on both transmit and receive in your radio. Please note using a handheld to access any repeater is less than ideal in most circumstances

Question: What is Wires-X and why do we have it on our 145.450 repeater?
Answer: Wires-X is a technology allowing C4FM users to connect to repeaters locally, regionally or worldwide using VOIP over the internet. We are adding this technology to appeal to a wider audience. We anticipate this will increase both traffic on the repeater and membership in the club
