I haven't done much with ham as yet as you know. I think out of the 3 or 4 of us DWH (Daryl) has the best "handle" on the repeater thing. I'll ask him this week end. We seem to be using a quasi standard frequency of 148.480 simplex but not sure about repeaters.

thanks for the links, I'll read up on the sites tonight. Guess I'll have to see the farthest repeater I can hit from socal since I only have vhf/uhf capability and license. If I remember correctly, you can only hop repeaters with HF. I started looking into IRLP, but I need more research time on that.
