For a ham repeater first you must have a ham radio license. If you do not have this go to arrl.org and find out about it. It will depend on the state or area you are in and what frequencies you want to use. The 144 mhz band is usually filled up in most areas. If you can find a frequency that is not being used then you can just put the repeater on any frequency that is legal for repeaters. It is usually beter to find the repeater frequency coordinating body for the ham repeaters in the area and ask what frequency pair is open in your area. If you do put on an repeater without doing this and cause problems with other repeaters you will have to remove your repeater. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
