How to talk on the 147.435 Southern California repeater

Radio frequency (RF)

Output: 147.435 MHz (optional PL 103.5 squelch)
2m Input: 146.400 MHz  PL 103.5 (odd split)
220 MHz Input: 223.630 DPL 023
440 MHz Input: 437.450 DPL 612

  • All the inputs mix so that several people can talk at the same time; it’s beautiful chaos!
  • We duplex, quick key, keep each transmission short and interject with comments while others are talking.
  • We allow the playing of reasonably short bits of music as long as it’s part of a discussion.

Echolink

  • (4/2/2017 Roger Bly: Banned by Echolink due to content)
  • Node 747565 K6MWT-R   (Offline as of 4/2/2017)
  • 435 and Roger were banned by Echolink on April 2, 2017 due to a #6 violation of their loosely defined guidelines.  It seems the gutter parlance language that the FCC now allows on the Amateur Radio service is not acceptable to Echolink.  They are a private service and can ban anyone for any reason.
  • We will continue to say “fuck you mother fucker”, etc. on our repeater as is now allowed by the FCC per the N6BHU decision; as long as it does not appeal to prurient interests.
